DELTA Video Communications Garners Awards from MCA-I Media Festival
Although earning praise for their work is nothing new for the DELTA Video Communication Services team, John Gordon has secured the first-ever Golden Reel award from Media Communications Association – International (MCA-I) Media Festival.
Gordon, broadcast & emerging media manager, received MCA-I’s highest honor in the editing category for the work he and his crew did for The Ice Cream Makers, a video shot in coordination with NC State’s Department of Food Bioprocessing and Nutrition Sciences.
In addition to top honors, DELTA Video Communication Services garnered two Silver Reel and five Bronze Reel awards. Michael Castro and Bert French served as production assistants on several of the award-winning projects.

Since then, they won a Silver Reel in 1996 (An Un-Tour of NC State produced by Tony Pearson), another Silver Reel in 1999 (Plant Pathology Video Conference produced by Jeff Robinson and Darren Ley), and in 2001 they won Silver Reels in three different categories (Moving People, Making Money produced by Tony Pearson).
In 2004, they received Honorable Mention (North Carolina Soars produced by Larry Evans and Darren Ley) and in 2012, a Bronze Reel (Go Beyond the Classroom produced by John Gordon).
