Congratulations are in order!
The Nashville/Midsouth Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced their Midsouth Regional Emmy Award nominations today, and we’re happy to proclaim that a nomination has been bestowed on one of our own.
Regular 5Writers.com contributor Emilia Fuentes Grant has been nominated for a Regional Emmy in the Best Writer/Program category for her work on the Instructional Music Video, Bad Romance: Women’s Suffrage. Her husband also received a nomination for the video in the Best Informational/Instructional Program category. The company that they both work for, Soomo Publishing, also received a nomination in the Best Producing Organization category. Needless to say, this was a GREAT day for the Grant household!
The Awards Banquet and live telecast will take place on January 26, 2013 in Nashville, Tennessee. For the complete list of nominees, you can view the Academy’s official press release here: http://nashville.emmyonline.org/#171
If you not seen this Emmy Nominated video that uses the music of Lady Gaga plus original lyrics written by Emilia to help educate viewers about the women’s suffrage movement, we have included a link below.
Please help us to share our heartfelt congratulations to one of our founding Five Writers! Congrats Emilia! We’re so proud of you!
