“Treading Water” has received the Award of Excellence in Social Responsibility and the Award of Distinction in Video Activism by the 23rd Annual Communicator Awards. The purpose of this project was to spark meaningful conversations about a social injustice that is so ingrained in our society, it is often overlooked. We hope that it will be the first of many projects like this for 360 Studios. As storytellers, we are privileged to have the opportunity to deliver messages for social change and we are grateful to the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts for recognizing our work.
