FPB’s Scott Stafford wins video awards
Frankfort Plant Board Media Services has received three Telly Awards for commercial video production.
Scott Stafford, FPB senior video producer/director, won Silver Telly Awards, the highest rating, for both copywriting and video production of the David Toles Auto Pro commercial titled “Hands.”
Stafford also won a Bronze Telly for video production of the Wayne’s Pharmacy commercial titled “Beetles.”
Stafford’s three Tellys this year add to the bronze he received in 2006.
More than 14,000 from around the world entered the competition. Founded in 1978, the Telly Award is the top honor for local, regional and cable TV commercials and programs, film and video productions, and groundbreaking Web commercials, videos and films.
A panel of more than 40 industry professionals, each a past winner of a Silver Telly, judged the competition. FPB Media Services produces local television commercials and other non-advertising video productions.
Farmers Bank earnings fall 50 percent
Farmers Capital Bank Corp. announced second-quarter earnings this week that fell 50 percent compared to the same period a year ago.
Net income was $2.5 million in the quarter compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2008. Earnings per share were 22 cents in the quarter, down from 67 cents a year ago.
The company, which has 37 locations throughout Central and Northern Kentucky, said lower earnings were driven by higher provision for loan losses, increased deposit insurance expense and lower net interest income.

It's funny how everyone remembers the names of the characters in the commercial, and what the commercial is actually selling... hmmmm I think they might be working after all. And, no your money doesn't go towards making the commercials, it goes to pay for your utilites, water, electric, cable, internet... based on your usage, use less pay less dummy! You think that stuff is free??? Go find somewhere else to vent your issues with the plant board and leave this space alone so that someone can get a little recognition for the good job he did on those commercials. Good Job Scott!! I am glad you got the award.

Congratulations Scott... there is no doubt that Scott's video genius should receive an award. He did a fantastic job on the commercial for our business.

FPB needs to take those stupid commercials of Chet and Randy off. Please tell me our money isn't going to make those awful commercials.
