“This year’s Telly Awards recognized work from leading global brands, production companies, media organizations, nonprofit organizations, and creative agencies from around the world,” said Eric Polins, Managing Partner at HCP Associates. “Whether we’re capturing the revitalization of a Community Redevelopment Area (CRA), helping a global MSP connect with audiences through animated holiday storytelling, explaining the future of helium-cooled small nuclear reactors and Indigenous partnerships, or supporting a fundraiser that brings awareness to people with developmental disabilities, our goal is always the same: to create meaningful work that humanizes complex ideas, informs audiences, inspires action, and emotionally connects people.”
The Telly Awards honor excellence in video and television across all screens and are judged by leaders from video platforms, television networks, streaming services, production companies, and major media organizations worldwide.
“These projects represent the kind of storytelling we love creating at HCP because they blend cinematic production, advanced motion graphics, immersive LED volume technology, and real human emotion,” said Spencer Haberman, Director of Digital Media Marketing at HCP Associates. “From community-driven productions to energy documentaries and branded campaigns, we’re continually exploring new ways to elevate storytelling through emerging technologies, including advanced LED virtual production environments and Vū volume stage technology utilized in projects connected to the University of Tampa, my alma mater.”
Unlike traditional agencies, HCP Associates combines research, strategic communications, cinematic production, animation, public relations, and digital storytelling under one integrated creative and consulting model.
The recognition arrives as HCP Associates celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2026. Over four decades, the firm has evolved into a multidisciplinary strategic consultancy serving corporations, government agencies, nonprofits, and emerging industries through research, branding, film production, digital media, public relations, and integrated communications across Florida and the United States.
