Eugene Tang

Producer at Mediacorp Chinese News & Current Affairs

Singapore

About

I tell timely, nuanced stories about Singapore and the world, and make them easy to grasp. Today I produce for Focus, Singapore’s longest-running Chinese-language current affairs programme at Mediacorp. I handle the full stack of production: research and interviews, scripting, visual explainers and graphics, and delivery under tight turnarounds. Before returning to production, I spent 3+ years as a Creative Strategist in the Chinese newsroom, leading youth & student engagement efforts and helping our teams stay ahead of content and storytelling trends. That experience sharpened how I think about audience needs, format choices and data-driven editorial decisions.
