(PR) The winners of the 2010 Davey Awards have been announced by the International Academy of the Visual Arts. "Zombie Boyfriend," a music video produced by Brooklyn Girl Productions and directed by Jenine Mayring for indie artist Emii, won a Silver Davey Award.

Award-winning director Jenine Mayring commented, "It's especially exciting to collaborate with a female recording artist to help convey their unique perspective visually. To have our music video be recognized by the IAVA is equally as exciting, and I am deeply honored to receive such a prestigious award." The recent accolade marks the second Davey Award for multi-hyphenate Jenine Mayring. In 2007, she won a Gold Davey Award for producing a regional television commercial entitled "Making Faces" for NORMS Restaurants, a chain based in southern California.

With over 4,000 entries from across the U.S. and around the world, the Davey Awards honors the finest creative work from the best small firms, agencies and companies worldwide.
