The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) received five Davey Awards for its in-house creative work, including one gold and four silver, according to The Gilmer Mirror. The awards recognized excellence in video production and storytelling.

The Davey Awards are presented by the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts. TDLR won in five categories in the 22nd year of the competition.

Gold for a roadside safety announcement

The gold winner was a General-Social Responsibility video titled "Move Over, Slow Down- Public Service Announcement." The video aimed to raise awareness about roadside safety and encourage compliance with the law around vehicles with flashing lights.

Silver awards tied to the Texas Lottery

The silver winners were all connected to Texas Lottery communications:

• A Texas Lottery Draw Studio video, in Social Video – Government & Municipal.
• Two awards in General – Information & Craft – Best Use of Graphics for "Texas Lottery FY25 Sales & Revenue."
• The "Texas Lottery Social Responsibility Series," in Campaign & Series – Education.

Produced in-house

The award-winning entries were developed and produced entirely in-house with no external production costs. The story named Heather Halstead, Melina Madrigal, Philip Bates and Mehul Shah as members of the in-house team.

TDLR Executive Director Courtney Arbour said: "We’re proud to see our team recognized for their creativity and dedication." She added: "This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering compelling, high quality content that advances our mission and connects with Texans."

This is the third consecutive year the Texas Lottery program has been honored by the Davey Awards. The story says the Texas Lottery earned two awards last year and a Silver Award in 2024.
