Yamaha Entertainment Group of America recently won four Midsouth Regional Emmy Awards for its short film “World Without Music.” The Midsouth Regional Emmys recognize the accomplishments of esteemed members of the television and film community across Tennessee, North Carolina, and Alabama.
Yamaha Entertainment Group, a Franklin, Tennessee-based boutique record label and subsidiary of Yamaha Corporation of America, earned victories in the “Director, Short Form,” “Audio,” “Photographer,” and “Editor/Program” categories.
In addition, “World Without Music” received nominations in the “Arts,” “Music Composer/Arranger,” “Lighting,” and “Commercial Campaign” categories in November 2019.
Winners were honored at the 34th Annual Midsouth Regional Emmy Awards, which were held February 15, 2020 at Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center, and hosted by the Nashville/Midsouth Chapter of The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS).
