Austin Hughes of Hughes Pictures, one of MacroSystem’s top dealers, has won two ADDY’S and an ADDY Citation at the 42nd ADDY’S, 10th district for his work on “Nosak Raw”, a reality-style TV series.

Gold ADDY for one hour Premier (infomercial on CBS Tulsa)
Silver ADDY for 13 half hour episodes (infomercial on CBS Tulsa)
ADDY Citation for B-B package ” Nosak Raw”.

“Nosak Raw” was re-cut and is showing from time to time on Discovery TLC as “Saw for hire”. Austin says: “If it was not for the reliable, solid, user-friendly Casablanca editing system, there is no way I could have produced a half hour show from shoot on location to air every 2 weeks. We owe a lot of our success to this editing system. Everything was shot in Hi-Def, we did a lot of audio layering and sweetening, it was simple with the key framing feature on the Casablanca; plus I saved a boat-load of dollars not having to send it out.
