Veterinary News Network Wins Silver Telly Award!
Promotional video highlighting impressive equine facility earns top pick!

With the majestic Front Range of the Rockies in the background, awe-inspiring horses in the foreground and his focus set on the impressive hospital for horses, Dr. Jim Humphries knew that any video would be good, but he was shooting for a little bit better. His diligence and artistry paid off as the video celebrating the 60th anniversary of Littleton Equine Medical Center was awarded a Silver Telly.

Telly Awards have been presented every year since 1978 and a Silver Telly is the highest award given. Started as recognition of excellence in local, regional and cable TV commercials, the "Tellys" soon added non-broadcast video, TV programs and even Internet based video to their categories. The Telly Awards Hall of Fame includes powerhouse organizations like NFL Films, the Discovery Channel and Fox Sports.

"The interesting and amazing thing about the Tellys," says Dr. Jim Humphries, President and founder of the Veterinary News Network, "is that you don't compete against other film and video in your category, but rather, you compete against a high standard of merit. So, some years there have been multiple winners in single category and in other years, absolutely no one has won."

Dr. Humphries is no stranger to the Telly Award process. He was gathered more than 23 Telly Awards for previous work done on behalf of many animal health companies and television programs. "But this particular award is special to me because we did it for my profession...the veterinary profession. We wanted to show the incredible talent and technology that can now be found at veterinary hospitals across the country. And, it just so happened that we were able to showcase a great equine medical centerat the same time!"

The Veterinary News Network is now creating welcome videos for veterinary hospital websites, produced in the same manner as the Littleton Equine video.
