Sheffield Wins Three Awards for Online Video Production

Agency recognized with two Hermes Creative Awards as well as a Communicator Award of Distinction for outstanding Video Production

DOWNERS GROVE, IL., June 4, 2010- Sheffield Marketing Partners (Sheffield), a boutique agency that specializes in message and content development, announced that it has received three awards for its work in short-form online video production.

“I Am Lexington”, a five-minute recruitment video recounting the stories of students and alumnae of Lexington College, won both the Platinum Hermes Creative Award and the Award of Distinction for the 16th Annual Communicator Awards. Lexington is a Hospitality Management College in Chicago. Sheffield produced this video as a part of a re-branding campaign designed to increase enrollment in the college.

The agency also was recognized with the Gold Hermes Creative Award for producing “The VSAT Advantage”, a high-impact video for Herndon, VA-based iDirect that educated maritime communications providers on the value of switching to iDirect’s broadband satellite platform. The video was an effective educational tool that was a critical part of a global lead generation campaign.

“It is very rewarding to get recognized for short-form videos that tell our clients’ story with passion and clarity,” said Joseph McCormack, Managing Director and Founder of Sheffield. “Our goal is to produce videos that are so compelling that you’d want to see them twice. We’re excited to know we’ve hit the mark.”
