One of two Louisiana Agencies to Win a Silver Award at
31st
Annual Awards
LAFAYETTE, LA — Lafayette-based advertising agency BBR Creative has won two Telly Awards based on outstanding campaigns for their clients BELFOR USA and Cox Greater Louisiana. BBR won a Silver Telly Award for their BELFOR residential campaign and a Bronze Telly Award for the "Your Friend in the Digital Age" Cox Greater Louisiana image spot. The firm was one of two agencies in the state of Louisiana to be awarded a Silver Telly, the competition’s highest honor, at this year’s awards.
With nearly 11,000 entries from all 50 states and numerous countries, this year’s Telly Awards has been one of the most successful and competitive in the long history of the Telly Awards. A prestigious judging panel of over 500 accomplished industry professionals, each a past Winner of a Silver Telly and a member of The Silver Telly Council, judged the competition, upholding the historical standard of excellence that Telly represents.
“A Telly is one of the most sought-after honors by leaders in our industry,“ says Partner and Creative Director Cathi Pavy. “As full-service advertising agency with a local, national and international client roster, we proudly accept these awards, which recognize our continued commitment to providing exceptional creative solutions to our clients.”
BBR was awarded their highest award, the Silver Telly, for the residential television campaign created for client BELFOR USA. BELFOR is a multi-million dollar disaster restoration company serving 27 countries worldwide. The three commercials that comprised the campaign showcased a before and after look at BELFOR’s expertise in restoring homes affected by water, fire and storm damage.
BBR earned a Bronze Award for their "Your Friend in the Digital Age" image spot created for client Cox Greater Louisiana. The commercial featured a breast cancer survivor, volunteer firefighters, community volunteers, a tutor, members of the military and a dance teacher – all of whom were part of Cox’s team of employees in South Louisiana. Cox Communications is the third-largest cable entertainment and broadband services provider in the country.
