WHAT: TWO (2) GOLD TELLY® AWARDS
U.S. Census 2020

NGL Studios was proud to team up with Culture One World to reach the Latinx community with important messaging around the importance of the Latinx community participating in the 2020 U.S. Census. NGL Collective’s approach was to deliver the facts with a little bit of funny, aligning to dynamic Latinx creators from across the U.S. like OMG It’s Eddie G on the west coast, Room28 Comedy representing NYC, and the legendary actor & singer Carlos Ponce in Miami. Our own Ben DeJesus directed the spot starring Carlos Ponce, written and co-starring Emmy-winning writer & comedian Yamil Piedra.
