The James Beard Foundation Awards shine a spotlight on the best and brightest talent in the food and beverage industry. “The Oscars of the food world.” -Time Magazine

Covering all aspects of the industry – from chefs and restaurateurs to cookbook authors and food journalists to restaurant designers and architects and more – the James Beard Foundation Awards are the highest honors for food and beverage professionals working in America. Nominees and winners are fêted at a weekend of gala events that has become the social and gastronomic highlight of the year.

Besides producing all the content for Awards Gala itself, we shoot and produce an annual wrap video highlighting the event sponsors and showcasing the talents of the evening. This year we generated over 26 separate videos varying the coverage and sound ups for each sponsor’s unique version of the evening.
