ITS's Video Production Unit (VPU) won a 2012 Gold Pixie Award for their Green Data Center animation. The animations were created by Brooke Williams ('12) and VPU senior editor Mary Kasprzyk. Neal Coffey, manager of VPU was the Steadicam operator and director of photography. Roxane Niezabytowski, VPU technical specialist, recorded audio and Frank Hegyi ('10) served as production assistant. The video, including the animation, is located on Syracuse University's website, along with facts and photos of the Green Data Center.
The Pixie Awards are bestowed by the American Pixel Academy and recognize outstanding work in the fastest-growing areas of the moving pixels industry: motion graphics, effects, and animation. David E. Carter (MBA '95) is the executive director of the Academy, and is also the founder of the Telly® Awards and American Corporate Identity awards. Entries are judged by top industry professionals by a standard of excellence, not against each other. A scoring between a 7.0 and 8.9 qualifies a team for a Gold Pixie Award.
