We’re thrilled to announce that we won a Gold Telly (Non-Broadcast – Educational Institution) in the 43rd Annual Telly Awards for the English & Theater Arts Promotional Video we produced for Duquesne University!

The Department of English and Theater Arts at Duquesne University is committed to developing the skills, knowledge and conscience of the next generation of leaders, who will shape the world they inherit. Pixelab Studios interviewed current students and faculty members to showcase the opportunities available to incoming students to best convey the benefits of an undergraduate degree from the program. These opportunities include improving literacy in the region through community-engaged learning, contributing to a student-run magazine called :Lexicon and participating in the oldest amateur theatre company in the city of Pittsburgh.

It is truly an honor to receive such a prestigious award from our video and television industry peers. The Educational Institution category in 2022 had 64 winners worldwide (28 bronze and 27 silver), but only 9 received gold, so we are incredibly proud of this accomplishment. At Pixelab Studios, we are passionate about telling stories that inform, inspire and entertain. We are fortunate to partner with excellent educational institutions like Duquesne University to help tell the story of these inspirational students and professors.
