The City of North Miami’s Community Planning & Development (CP&D) Department won three prestigious 2021 Telly Awards for their original production of the Resilient North Miami video. The video was produced and released last August during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CP&D Department received two Silver Telly Awards in the Social Video Craft categories of Voiceover and Mixed Media as well as one Gold Telly in the Social Video General category of Social Impact.
The Resilient North Miami video was created as a call to action by the Sustainability Division of the CP&D Department, for the purpose of highlighting the city’s fragile environment, growing economy, and social equity goals. The coveted Telly Awards have been honoring excellence in video and television across all screens and platforms since 1979. They receive over 12,000 entries from all 50 states and 5 continents, representing work from some of the most respected advertising agencies, television stations, production companies and publishers from around the world.
“We are incredibly honored to be recognized alongside well-known brands like Netflix, Microsoft, Condé Nast, HBO Latin America, Nickelodeon, BET Digital, Adobe, Playstation, BBC Global News and PAPER,” says Tanya Wilson, AICP, Director of North Miami’s CP&D Department.
