It’s time to make some room on our award shelves!
We’re happy to report that a whopping five UCSD-TV programs have been honored with awards for excellence.
Gold is the metal of honor when it comes to our haul at the Aurora Awards. That’s because four very different UCSD-TV programs took home Gold Aurora statues.
The winners are:
Building it Better: Earthquake-Resilient Hospitals for the Future (Documentary/Project category), produced by Rich Wargo
Tan Dun’s Water Passion – La Jolla Music Society’s SummerFest 2012 (Music/Live Concert category) produced by John Menier
Colon Cancer Screening: Health Matters (Educational/Fitness, Health), produced by Jennifer Ford
San Diego Opera Spotlight : Moby Dick (Documentary/Cultural category), produced by John Menier
We also rose to the top at the Telly Awards, where The Skinny on Obesity: Sickeningly Sweet, produced by UCSD-TV’s Rich Wargo and Jennifer Ford for the YouTube original channel UCTV Prime, won the Silver Telly for Internet/Online Programs in the Health and Wellness category.
The Aurora Awards are an annual independent film and video competition that honors excellence in commercials, cable programming, documentaries, industrial, instructional and corporate videos.
The Telly Awards honor the very best film and video productions, groundbreaking online video content, and outstanding local, regional and cable TV commercials and programs.
Congratulations to everyone on the UCSD-TV team!
