Impact Communications, developer of interactive multimedia, web, video production, and meetings announced that it has been presented with the Telly Awards’ highest honor, the Silver Telly.
For the past 30 years, the Telly Awards has honored excellence in local, regional and cable television commercials and programs and the finest video and film productions, as well as work created for the web. Impact received this prestigious honor for its video production,“St. Jude Stories of Hope.” The video was produced for Sterling Jewelers, Inc. annual national Managers’ Meeting to create employee awareness and enthusiasm for Sterling’s “Partnership in Caring” with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Impact won in the Video-Live Events category.
In 1999, Sterling launched its partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and since that time has raised nearly $18 million for the Hospital’s medical research and patient care. Impact Communications has been there from the beginning helping to generate enthusiasm and commitment each year at Sterling’s annual Managers’ Meeting with a fresh and invigorating production.
During Sterling’s Managers’ Meeting, the audience of store and district managers learn the goals of the annual St. Jude fundraising campaign in a general session that combines executive presentations, guest appearances and video. The session is designed to inspire and motivate the audience to rededicate their effort to the company’s ongoing financial commitment to the Hospital.
Impact Communications’ “St. Jude Stories of Hope” video profiled two young patients, both sharing their personal experiences of their respective journeys through care and recovery from cancer. The featured children were recommended by St. Jude to serve as patient spokespersons for Sterling. During the session both patients were introduced by the videos leading to their live appearance on stage with Sterling leaders.
Mark Light, President and CEO of Sterling Jewelers said, “We congratulate Impact Communications on having received this most prestigious industry award. Since our Partnership in Caring with the hospital began ten years ago, Sterling Jewelers has partnered with Impact to develop creative and original media to inspire and motivate our employees to continually increase their fundraising effort for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Programs such as “Stories of Hope” reflect Impact’s understanding of Sterling’s role in helping the hospital continue its lifesaving mission.”
Impact developed another exciting and successful video production and awards luncheon for Nestle Professional and Minor’s.
The Chef Professionalism Awards is a luncheon, held during The American Culinary Federation’s Annual Convention, where individuals who excel and are the top in their field are recognized and rewarded.
Four top professional chefs, who are the regional winners of The Chef Professionalism Award, are the focus. Impact produces a biographical video tracing the history of each honoree’s culinary career featuring interview sound bites from each chef, as well as a professional voiceover narration, which tells each chef’s story. A jury of past winners selects and presents the new winner of the National Chef Professionalism award from the four regional winners.
The videos, which are shown at the luncheon, are motivational and inspiring, encouraging all attendees to be leaders in their field through performance, creativity, mentoring others, and remaining on the cutting edge of the culinary industry.
