More and more book trailers are reaching a younger audience, teachers and parents in ways that encourage reading and book sales. The Children’s Audience category for video is a much coveted category to win in because of the growing popularity of online opportunities for young readers. So, when EMPixx, an organization that is similar to the Telly and Davey awards for best video and commercials, contacted Circle of Seven Productions with the news that they’d won two awards in the Children’s Audience category CEO Sheila Clover English was thrilled.
“This is an important category for us,” says English, “We have invested a lot of time and research to build online distribution and work out social media strategies for this genre of book. To have the quality and effectiveness of our videos validated like this lets us know we’re on the right track for our target audience.”
According to EMPixx judges notes to the company - "Your
overall body of work ranked among the top 2% in the competition!" With
hundreds of entries into the EMPixx awards making the top 2% is an impressive
feat.
The EMPixx Awards were started by some of the same people who started the prestigious
Telly Awards and are a competition based award system.
