Edited by Union’s Marco Perez, CNN “Why We Go” Wins the Emmy for Outstanding Promotional Announcement
NEW YORK --(SPW)--
Edited by Marco Perez of bicoastal Union Editorial, CNN “Why We Go” has been honored with the Emmy ® Award for Outstanding Promotional Announcement at the 38th Annual News and Documentary Awards held October 6th in New York. The spot is part of the network’s “Go There” brand identity campaign. Since its 2014 launch, the campaign has showcased the unique ways in which CNN gathers and tells a story. This year’s brand anthem builds on that theme with an authentic glimpse of how and why CNN journalists choose to go.
“Why We Go” - a SHOOT Magazine Top Spot from June 2, 2016 - takes us behind the scenes with the CNN News team as report on the deeply emotional story of refugee camps in Greece. We follow Wolf Blitzer and Senior International Correspondent Nima Elbagir from the moment they get the call from the CNN News Desk until the story goes to air. The project, which shot in three countries, includes :30, :60 and :90 versions (The :90 appears on the CNN website), and was directed by Klaus Obermeyer.
