BOWERBIRD PUBLISHING’S BOOK TRAILER SERIES NAMED BEST SOCIAL VIDEO IN MEDIA & ENTERTAINMENT IN THE 45th ANNUAL TELLY AWARDS

 

Julatten, Queensland, Australia - 22nd May 2024 - Bowerbird Publishing announced today its Book Trailer Series has been named Best Social Video in Media & Entertainment in the record breaking 45th Annual Telly Awards. The Telly Awards honours excellence in video and television across all screens and is judged by leaders from video platforms, television, streaming networks, and production companies. This year’s winners include Adobe, Calvin Klein, ESPN, LinkedIn, Mother Jones, MTV Entertainment Studios, NASA, the LA Clippers (NBA), PlayStation Studios, Sawhorse Productions, TelevisaUnivison and more.


Crystal Leonardi is the CEO and Founder of Bowerbird Publishing, a publishing house established in 2021 in tropical north Queensland, Australia. In 2024, Bowerbird Publishing has expanded its professional services to include book trailers production, graphic design and screenwriting.


“The calibre of the work this season truly has reflected the theme of going beyond the frame. Our industry is experimenting with new technologies like never before, crafting truly compelling stories to draw attention to some of the world’s most pressing issues,” shares Telly Awards Managing Director Amanda Needham. “The Telly Awards is uniquely positioned to meet the industry where it’s actually making work, be that on television or TikTok.”


As a relatively new service I am offering to clients, receiving recognition on this level for my book trailer production skills is quite extraordinary. I began creating MP4 clips as an entertaining, captivating and engaging way of promoting Bowerbird Publishing titles, during their pre-launch phase. The feedback I received from authors, media and publishing agents, gave me the confidence to enter some of my best work; book trailers for titles, Isherwood’s Australia, TickleTouch, Rose Red, and Weighed Down, by authors Alan Isherwood, Chantal Munro, Jeremy Thomas, and Mary Pearson respectively. I feel extremely proud to have debuted these titled on an international stage in this way.


Committed to pushing the boundaries of creativity forward, this year’s new categories included topics within Generative AI, Brand Collaboration, Use of Data Visualization, Thought Leadership and Accessibility. These categories centred on cutting-edge technologies and storytelling formats that are actively evolving within the video and television industry.


This was a record-breaking year with nearly 13,000 entries from across the globe and top video and television content producers. Winners were chosen by The Telly Awards Judging Council which includes Nathalie Van Sasse Van Ysselt, VP of Design and Creative Services, MSG Sphere Studios; Barry Christie, Global Creative Lead, Meta Creative Shop; Farihah Zaman, Director, member of Brown Girl Doc Mafia; Aiden Darné, VP, Global Studio Lead Shutterstock; Malinda Wink, Executive Director Minderoo Pictures.
