The Telly Awards recognize outstanding local, regional and cable TV commercials, programs, and video and film productions throughout the world. This one commercial won a total of five Tellys in the award’s 35th annual competition
The Tony Chachere’s spot was honored in the Local and Regional TV categories for Use of Music and Set Design; and Local TV in the Packaged Goods category. The commercial included an original composition from Grammy-nominated zydeco accordionist, band leader and composer, Geno Delafose.
The commercial was produced by Benedict Advertising & Marketing with offices in Lafayette, Louisiana. “The crew did an amazing job bringing the flavor and character of Tony Chachere’s Famous Creole Cuisine to viewers,” said Benedict’s Richard Brauns. “Filming in Louisiana using local production and talent gave the spot the authenticity it needed and rightly deserved.
