Partners in Motion received three nominations at the 35th Annual Worldfest Houston International Film Festival for Disasters of the Century, and two television commercials for Saskatchewan Health and SaskPower. Each commercial was produced with local advertising agencies, Phoenix Advertising Group and MGM Communications respectively.
