RALEIGH, N.C. - Feb. 4, 2015 - PRLog -- Triangle-based integrated production company Blueforest Studios received a Gold Pixie Award for the Triangle Community Foundation video featured at the 2014 What’s Matters luncheon. The award signifies exceptional graphical animation on the part of Blueforest Studios’ professionals.

Bryan Reklis, Blueforest Video Producer, explained the importance of animation in the firm’s videos:

Here at Blueforest, we take a special pride in everything we do. Clients love our hand-drawn animation graphics, and we enjoy telling their stories to the world. Though animation is a relatively new tool for me personally, working with other amazing animators on our creative team at Blueforest I've found it to be a super effective and fun tool to use.

Meg Buckingham, Triangle Community Foundation’s Marketing & Communications officer, praised Blueforest Studios’ work:

I can’t tell you how many compliments I’ve gotten on the video. I’m on cloud nine, and I am so excited that you all were able to take the visionary scraps in my brain and create what has been called the best explanation of a community foundation ever.

The Pixie Award has been honoring outstanding work in motion graphics, animation, and visual effects for 6 years. Videos submitted for competition were judged in accordance to high standards by industry professionals. Greg Koohran, Managing Director of the Pixie Awards, commented:
