The Royal Tyrrell Museum’s most recent commercial won a provincial award last weekend in Calgary.
White Iron Productions of Calgary produced the commercial, entitled They Never Left. It features giant dinosaurs stomping through an urban setting and a series of images from the Royal Tyrrell Museum gallery.
Drama students from St. Anthony’s School participated in the filming.
The commercial won the Best Commercial under, $50,000 at the Alberta Film and Television Awards (Rosie Awards). John Cameron produced the commercial, and the company submitted the entry for the award.
Leanna Mohan of the Royal Tyrrell Museum said they have worked with the company in the past on other projects.
“White Iron donated a lot of time and resources to make the commercial happen just because they love the Museum and love dinosaurs,” said Mohan.
The commercial was shot last winter, and completed by Christmas. It was first aired in February.
