BOHAN Leads Two Emmy Categories, Earns Seven Nominations Overall
Work is for Fazoli’s, Ochsner Health System, United Methodist Communications
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (December 2009)—BOHAN Advertising|Marketing has received six of the 12 regional Emmy Award nominations available for commercial work. No other business got more than two nominations for commercial work.
The agency earned a seventh nomination for a public service announcement, and original music for one of its projects also was nominated.
The Nashville/Midsouth Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences gives the awards, which will be secret until a presentation gala Jan. 30, 2010, at Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
NASCAR champion Darrell Waltrip, himself a nominee for a national Emmy as Outstanding Sports Personality, will emcee the gala.
Geneva Brignolo, executive director of the Nashville/MidSouth Chapter, said judges examine content, creativity and execution to determine winners of “television’s highest honor.”
“Commercials are subject to the same scrutiny that is applied to documentaries,” she said.
This is the sixth year in a row that BOHAN has earned Emmy nominations. The 2010 nominations are for commercials produced for Fazoli’s Italian restaurants, Ochsner Health System in Louisiana and United Methodist Communications. Broadcast producer Deb Rhodes, who joined BOHAN in 2005, oversaw all of the nominated projects.
There are two categories for commercial work—commercial spot and commercial campaign—and BOHAN landed three nominations in each. No other Nashville advertising agency received nominations in the commercial categories.
BOHAN’ public service announcement nomination was for “Clean Hands Are Cools Hands” for the HCA Foundation, and an Emmy nomination in the music composer/arranger category was for music in a United Methodist Communications “Rethink Church” video production.
The Nashville/Midsouth region covers Tennessee, North Carolina (except the Asheville market) and the Huntsville, Ala., market.
Emmys for commercial work in the Midsouth region date only to 2004, and BOHAN has won Emmys for five consecutive years.

· Commercial spot: “Blown Away” for Fazoli’s
