Videos on an academic laboratory explosion in Lubbock, Texas and a flammable vapor explosion near Buffalo, New York, received bronze awards, while a video on a string of dust flash fires at a Tennessee metal powder production company received a silver award. CSB safety videos are documentary-style narratives on specific accidents based on CSB investigation findings. They typically include computer 3D animations that depict deadly sequences of events, and include commentary by investigators and CSB board members.
Accepting the awards at the Nov. 14 awards ceremony at the National Press Club were CSB Chairperson Dr. Rafael Moure-Eraso, Managing Director Dr. Daniel Horowitz, Communications Manager Hillary Cohen, and Sandy Gilmour and Shauna Lawhorne of Sandy Gilmour Communications, LLC, which provides support for CSB video production.
