DANVILLE, IN (June 17, 2021) –A Visit Hendricks County video in partnership with Williams Randall Marketing recently won a prestigious award. Our answer to the pandemic, “How To Say It With Your Eyes,” won a Bronze in the annual Telly Awards competition, which is the premier national award honoring video and television across all screens.

The one-minute video which was produced last summer and released in the fall amid the COVID-19 pandemic provided a fun, light-hearted approach in encouraging everyone to wear their masks. It supported Visit Hendricks County’s strategic plan to fulfill an unmet community need in a time of crisis as the organization focused on being a resource for the Hendricks County community.

“Our organization followed a vision to be a place for good news and lighthearted messaging during the pandemic,” said Jaime Bohler Smith, executive director of Visit Hendricks County. “We are very proud that our storytelling was welcomed by the community, and to be honored with an award is very rewarding for our team.”
