CHARLESTON, SC – June 5, 2012 – Rawle Murdy has received a Telly, an award recognizing great film and video productions, for its Patriots Point Development Authority video celebrating the historic battleship the USS Yorktown.
The winning video, titled “Bringing History to Life,” depicts a high-action, animated series featuring South Pacific-based battle scenes that the USS Yorktown was engaged in during World War II.

The video is also interspliced with real footage and images from that period of time aboard the USS Yorktown.
“We pride ourselves on using the most innovative technology available for our work” said Rawle Murdy President Bruce D. Murdy. “Plus, it was exciting to bring to life such a significant part of American history through animation. The feel, look and sound of the video really provide the imagination with a taste of how it might have been.”
