And the Emmy Goes to Duke's 'Merry & Bright'
Duke’s Digital and Brand Strategy (DBS) Team brought home a regional Emmy Award on Saturday night for the video “Merry & Bright” created at the height of the pandemic as a holiday greeting in late 2020. DBS team members watched the virtual Midsouth Regional Emmy ceremony from laptops and cell phones. When Duke University was announced as winners of the Program Promotion category, team members exchanged celebratory calls, texts and e-mail messages among themselves while their pre-recorded acceptance message was broadcast on the show (below).
