USC earns Los Angeles Area Emmy Award for 'Arrival of the Trojan'

During the 2025 Los Angeles Area Emmy Awards, the USC School of Cinematic Arts won an award for 'Arrival of the Trojan,' an intro video that took the world by storm following its introduction. Intended to be played at the Coliseum, that dream was realized for the creative mind behind the project, Flint Tanquary. The creation that he spearheaded, after garnering over 20 million views online, was then played before the Wisconsin game at the Trojan home stadium.

Now, 'Arrival of the Trojan' is also officially an Emmy Award-winning piece of media work, as the video won in the category of SHORT PROMO – SPORTS.
