The series was honored with the award in the category "Electronic Media "" Websites" for the subcategory of "Educational Video Series."

"When we conceptualized the Transmission Physician, we knew she had the ability to be an industry leader," said Derik Beck, vice president of digital marketing at Cottman.

"This project represents the best of Cottman "" our ability to put the service and education of our customers above everything, while reinforcing the name we've built for ourselves in the aftermarket car care space. I'm incredibly proud of our team's work on this project."

The international competition is specifically formulated for creative professionals involved in the concept, writing and design of traditional materials and programs as well as emerging technologies.

The 2017 Hermes Creative Awards is one of the largest of its kind around the world, with winners ranging in size from individual communicators and media conglomerates to Fortune 500 companies. Winning a Hermes Creative Award goes even further to raise Cottman's reputation as an industry leader for the Transmission Physician video series as it contributes to the overall marketing strategy of Cottman.

"The Transmission Physician was originally designed as a way to pay homage to the women who have made our industry what it is today, and have played an extremely important role in the development and modernization of the auto industry," said Beck.

"Cottman stands for inclusivity at all levels, and we're thrilled that the Transmission Physician is being honored at the international level, hopefully going even further to bring this message to the world."

The Transmission Physician web series is a standout component of Cottman's broader catalogue of educational digital content. Using fun, accessible animation and themes, Cottman shares its educational videos on the brand's website as a way for consumers to learn more about common car care topics.
