MANASSAS, Va. – Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative, along with G&T Communications, announced June 10 that they have received one silver and three bronze Telly Awards for television advertisements. The Telly Awards honor excellence in video and television “across all screens.” The Telly Awards Judging Council includes experts from Marvel, TIME, and Vimeo.
The NOVEC commercials that earned 2023 Telly Awards were:
- “Delivering 99.99% Reliability” – silver in the local TV category for utilities.
- “A Bright Future For You” – bronze in the local TV category for utilities.
- “SmartHub” – bronze in the local TV category for utilities.
- “Dough for You (CashBack)” – bronze in the non-broadcast category for motion graphics/design.
These advertisements focus on NOVEC’s exemplary record of service and explain how customers benefit from the electric co-op’s model as a not-for-profit corporation owned and controlled by its members — the customers who purchase energy from NOVEC.
According to the Tellys website, judges considered more than 13,000 entries from across the globe for the 40th annual Telly Awards. Founded in 1979 to honor commercials made for cable and local TV, “the Telly Awards has refreshed its categories each year to honor the evolving, broad range of work being produced today – work that reflects the trends, issues, and topical matters of each year,” according to the website.
This season, the Tellys added categories “to better recognize work across pro bono and corporate social responsibility venues, video journalism, and those pushing boundaries across virtual production.” The theme of this year’s awards was “Breaking Through the Static.”
