The Telly Awards features categories each season that reflect the evolution of the video and television industry, and this year’s theme, “Beyond the Frame,” centered on new categories for Generative AI, Thought Leadership, Brand Collaboration, and Accessibility. Among the inaugural winners were PepsiCo in Branded Content – Accessibility for its You Belong Here campaign, highlighting the contributions of associates living with disabilities and caregivers. Paramount Pictures won in Social Video – Brand Collaboration for the “Viral Mission Impossible Theme Song” with Influencer Victor de Martrin, and stand out entries in Thought Leadership included those by TED Conferences featuring Astrophysicist Erika Hamden, and AutoDesk featuring President and CEO Andrew Anagnost.

“The caliber of the work this season has truly reflected the theme of going beyond the frame. Our industry is experimenting with new technologies and crafting compelling stories in multiple mediums,” shares Telly Awards Managing Director Amanda Needham. “The Telly Awards is uniquely positioned to meet the industry where it’s actually making work, be that on television or TikTok.”
