GRAND RAPIDS, MI – NODEHAUS Media, the independent-spirited production and post-production studio based in West Michigan, is proud to announce its role in the recent success of The Hustle, which has been awarded the 2026 Webby Award for Best Film & Video: Business Channel.
The Webby Awards, hailed by The New York Times as the "Internet’s highest honor," recognize excellence in digital media on a global scale. This year’s win highlights The Hustle’s innovative approach to business news—a vision NODEHAUS has helped bring to life through specialized post-production, editing, and animation.
The partnership between the two entities began in 2024, with NODEHAUS initially providing overflow post-production support and social media content. The collaboration deepened in August 2025, when NODEHAUS took the lead on the highly successful episode, “The Rise, Fall and Rise of Cadillac Motors.” Following the success of that project, NODEHAUS has served as a primary post-production partner, handling 12 subsequent videos that contributed to the channel's award-winning run.
“Being included in the winning credits for a Webby is a defining moment for our studio,” said Tran Hoang Calvin, Founder and Owner of NODEHAUS Media. “Our mission has always been to prove that a gritty, indie team out of West Michigan can compete at the highest international levels. This award validates that premium, world-class storytelling isn't restricted by geography—it’s driven by vision and technical execution.”
The winning videos featured a blend of fast-paced narrative editing and custom animations designed to make complex business data both accessible and entertaining.
