Winners of Two Prestigious International Video Awards
The Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts has announced the winners of the 27th Annual Communicator Awards. Congratulations to our Creative Services team here at Advance Media New York for winning the prestigious Award of Excellence for two videos they shot and produced (see videos below). One video was for Syracuse local-business, Roma Tile & Marble and the other award-winning video promoted a mask-wearing challenge developed by Syracuse-nonprofit, BABY B.A.C.K. INC. This prestigious recognition comes just weeks after the Advance team took home 20 New York State Creative Awards, which included the coveted John J. Evans Award for Advertising Excellence – a statewide honor.
With over 6,000 entries from across the US and around the world, the Communicator Awards is the largest and most competitive international awards program honoring creative excellence for ad agencies, interactive agencies, production firms, in-house creative professionals, graphic designers, design firms and public relations firms. Other winners of the Award of Excellence, the competition’s highest honor, include UFC, PepsiCo, Forbes, BoxMedia, WWE, Microsoft, Code Red. GmbH, Comcast and Disney Creative Studios.
