NSSF Captures Two Telly Awards for Excellence in Video Production

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation, the trade association for the firearms and ammunition industry, has been awarded two 2015 Telly Awards.

The Telly Awards represent the best work of the most respected corporate video departments, advertising agencies, production companies, television stations and cable operators in the world.

The “people” have spoken! For the second straight year, NSSF claimed the Silver People’s Telly, the Telly Awards’ highest honor, in the Online Video category. The award recognized the quality of NSSF’s animated infographic video, “Gun Crimes Plummet Even as Gun Sales Rise.” NSSF’s sizable reach on social media played a huge role in helping to win the award, driving massive amounts of views and high ratings.

In the Business-to-Business category, the Telly judges awarded NSSF the Bronze Telly for the 2015 SHOT Show promotional video, “SHOT Show — Too Good To Miss.” Watch that video here: http://youtu.be/GQOyquOp-yE.

“Our in-house multimedia capabilities are constantly evolving here at NSSF,” said Bill Dunn, NSSF Managing Director of Marketing Communications. “The quality of work being produced is something our entire industry can be proud of. We thank the Telly Awards for this recognition.”
