MessageMakers Receives 3 Telly Awards For Video Production

Online, August 25, 2012 (Newswire.com) - MessageMakers is pleased to announce it has been awarded 3 Telly Awards for the production of the videos "Made in York," "The Power of Michigan," and "2012 Manitou Main Feature."

Told through the story of the York, Pa. Harley-Davidson factory, Made in York "is an honest piece about the challenges and opportunities of a major company evolving to the next stages of its growth," states video editor Tom Lietz. In collaboration with the incredibly open-minded Harley-Davidson employees, MessageMakers approached this project in true documentary style, using innovative camera techniques to provide what Lietz calls "a peek behind the curtain at all levels within the company." This video received a Silver Telly, the program's highest honor.

Produced to share the theme and the action of Michigan's 2011 inauguration celebrations, The Power of Michigan depicts the forward movement of excellence within our great state of Michigan. Within just hours of the inauguration, the video had been cut, edited, mastered, and delivered to the inaugural ball at the Wharton Center. Using traditional elements, sworn oaths and speech content, as well as footage of other Michigan activities, this production reinforces the message that "a new era of innovation and the reinvention of Michigan" has begun.

The 2012 Manitou Main Feature provides a crystal-clear image of what Manitou Pontoon Boats have to offer with the arrival of a new model year. MessageMakers takes to the air, producing aerial footage of the innovative technologies Manitou has introduced to its new line of boats. Video producer Adam Cate says, "It's always fun to get out on the water and be able to also call it 'working.'" With the use of creative camera techniques, MessageMakers proves to the audience that Manitou has a pontoon boat that will suit your needs on the water perfectly.
