I am excited to share our two part radio series adaptation of 1976 mystery novel, “A Watcher in the Woods,” is the recipient of SIX Communicator Awards, including Best On-Air Talent! To my cast mates and all involved in the production, congratulations! The Communicator Awards is an international awards program recognizing excellence, effectiveness, and innovation across all areas of communication….”

 

On May 6, the Academy of Interactive & Visual Arts (AIVA) awarded six Communicator Awards to the production—three awards of excellence for craft on-air talent, craft sound design, and craft editing and three awards of distinction for general production, craft writing, and craft original music.

In 2024, WFIU Public Radio partnered with Starrynight Productions, LLC. to adapt Florence Engel Randall’s 1976 mystery novel as part of the celebration of the total solar eclipse in Indiana. Writer/director Russell McGee (Big Finish Productions Doctor Who audio plays) and producer/actor Michael Brainard (All My Children) worked collaboratively with WFIU to produce A Watcher in the Woods as a two-part limited radio series. Previously, McGee and Brainard worked with WFIU on the radio series The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and The Ernie Pyle Experiment!.

The audio series features the talents of Barbara Rosenblat (The Boy and the Heron, Orange is the New Black), Sophie Aldred (Doctor Who), Bonnie Bogovich (DC DualForce, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Resurgence), Deva Marie Gregory (Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, A Ghost Waits), among others.

The Communicator Awards is an international awards program recognizing excellence, effectiveness, and innovation across all areas of communication. The 31st Annual Communicator Awards received over 3,000 entries from companies, agencies, studios, and boutique shops of all sizes, making it one of the largest awards shows of its kind globally.
