TEI Takes Home Silver WorldMedal from New York Festivals

Scene from the Silver WorldMedal winning film “Melissa’s Story” produced for Eli Lilly Pharmaceuticals

Yee Haw! Our creative team just won a Silver WorldMedal from the prestigious New York Festivals for a documentary we produced about a woman living with incurable cancer. We produced the film for Eli Lilly and Company.

Now in its 57th year, the New York Festivals recognizes the world’s best creative work in feature films and TV programming. The TV and Film Awards were presented at a gala this week at the NAB convention in Las Vegas. Other winners included Lionsgate, the BBC, NBC, and HBO.

“Once again, I am so grateful that our talented team was recognized by the judges at the New York Festivals,” said director Scott Takeda. “We’ve been fairly fortunate to have also won an Emmy and national Telly Award for this project. We dedicate this latest win to Melissa and her fight against cancer.”

TEI shares the award with the agency team at BI Worldwide in Minneapolis who partnered with TEI for the creation of this film.
