Heliconia, the video production company behind Epic Trails and Paddle Tales, was a big winner at the 42nd Telly Awards, bringing home four statues in recognition of excellence in television and digital productions.
Each year, dating back to 1979, the Telly Awards have been awarded to the top productions in the television, film, commercial, and digital space. This year’s awards saw many of the world’s top production houses and presented one of the strongest film and TV-making lineups ever at the Telly’s; with Heliconia coming away as one of the top producers with four awards.
With the world in ‘pandemic mode’, production across all modern visual platforms has been a challenge. Heliconia was able to plan, shoot and produce full seasons of content through all the challenges and with their inspirational storylines. With classic capture of incredible locations, community-leading influencers guiding the way for audiences, and incredible footage and editing, Heliconia was able to enter four amazing pieces and catch the eye of the judges. Epic Trails and Paddle Tales won two awards each at this year’s Telly Awards.
