“It’s such an honor to win in these categories against other incredible digital series and online videos,” said Roberts, who serves as the host of the series. “Our goal for Design vs. Build has been to create something of value for the A&D community, and I think the Telly Awards validates all of our hard work.”
The Telly Awards, now in its 41^st year, is a video and television award competition that honors some of the biggest brands across the world. For example, this year Kebony beat out Bloomberg Media, BBC, and Condé Nast in the Documentary category. The submissions are judged by well-known and respected industry executives and creatives.
The Kebony team behind the creation and development of Design vs. Build include Roberts, who acted as host and producer; James Burniston, director of photography; and Kristian Alveo, graphic designer and photographer.
The second episode of Design vs. Build, which tells the story of The Harland West Hollywood, is now streaming on www.designvsbuild.com and YouTube.
