Pixelhunters selected a winner in the 34th annual Telly Awards
The Telly Awards has named PIXELHUNTERS as a SILVER winner in the 34th Annual Telly Awards for their piece titled "WHY ROAR?". With nearly 11,000 entries from all 50 USA states and numerous countries, this is truly an honor.
"WHY ROAR?" is a creative motivational video, part of PIXELHUNTERS' campaign for POSITIVE MIND. The video is also winner of 2013 AVA Platinum Award.
The Telly Awards was founded in 1979 and is the premier award honoring outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, the finest video and film productions, and online commercials, video and films. Winners represent the best work of the most respected advertising agencies, production companies, television stations, cable operators, and corporate video departments in the world.
For its 34th season, The Telly Awards once again joined forces with YouTube to give the public the power to view and rate videos submitted as part of the People's Telly Awards. In addition to recognition from the Silver Telly Council, the judging panel that selects the Telly Awards winners, the Internet community helps decide the People's Telly Awards winners.
A prestigious judging panel of over 500 accomplished industry professionals, each a past winner of a Silver Telly and a member of The Silver Telly Council, judged the competition, upholding the historical standard of excellence that Telly represents. The Silver Council evaluated entries to recognize distinction in creative work - entries do not compete against each other - rather entries are judged against a high standard of merit. Less than 10% of entries are chosen as Winners of the Silver Telly, our highest honor. Approximately 25% of entries are chosen as Winners of the Bronze Telly.
"The Telly Awards has a mission to honor the very best in film and video," said Linda Day, Executive Director of the Telly Awards. PIXELHUNTERS' accomplishment illustrates their creativity, skill, and dedication to their craft and serves as a testament to great film and video production."
We are very happy to receive this award; this is one of the highest recognition for quality and creativity in our industry and this year award is even more valuable for us, as this is the 2nd time we have been honored by the Telly prestigious judges. The 32nd Annual Telly brought us a Bronze award four our "7 Wonders of the World" video. Please read more at http://www.pixelhunters.com/awards.
