Best in Show ADDY for Explore Media and "Fairy Tale"
AAF Michiana honored Explore Media with three awards, including Best in Show, during their regional ADDY® Award ceremony, February 23, 2012 in Granger, Indiana. The Best in Show ADDY® Award went to “Fairy Tale”, a :30 HD television commercial produced for Elkhart-based vintage clothing boutique ModCloset. The winning TV advertisement used hipster models in unique vintage-styled settings to visually express the ModCloset brand and image. The commercial also features an original song by the same name, “Fairy Tale”, by Morgan Erina, a New York City-based recording artist.
In addition to being named Best in Show in the Electronic category, “Fairy Tale” was also awarded a Gold ADDY® in the “:30 Local Television Commercial” category.
Explore Media took home another ADDY® for the “A Top-Notch Education” video, which won a silver award for the IU School of Medicine - South Bend. “The ADDY® Award recognitions, and especially the Best in Show are so gratifying for our clients and all the hardworking creative professionals within our organization who help on the many facets of their projects,” said Jeremy Pinckert, executive producer of Explore Media.
“We really are fortunate to partner with such trusting, loyal clients who always look for new ways to tell their stories. An ADDY® recognition also truly validates the quality, style and creativity of our productions amongst our worthy peers.”
