Quad Cities Advertising Federation Names Winners of 2009 Addy Awards
IA/IL QUAD-CITIES – Each year, Quad-City businesses and their creative staff members and consultants conspire to craft effective advertising and marketing works – and according to Michele Stoos, President of the Quad Cities Advertising Federation, "The work of these Midwest masterminds can be criminally brilliant." Each year, the Quad Cities Advertising Federation recognizes these creative individuals at the Addy Awards presentation.
The theme of this year"s Addy Awards was CSI: Creative Scene Investigators, and the awards were presented on Thursday, Feb. 12, at the Putnam Museum/IMAX Theatre in Davenport. The ceremony honored works created throughout the year 2008. Stoos, an account executive with Nehlsen Communications and Pic Two in Moline, IL, stated, "The Quad Cities Advertising Federation thanks all the creative companies and individuals who entered the competition, as well as everyone who attended the event. This year"s event was a huge success."
The evening"s highest award, Best of Show, went to Timothy Kane Productions of Long Grove, Iowa. The award was given in recognition of the film, "Defining Dignity: The People of Haiti." Kane"s film crew traveled to Haiti to shoot footage for the short documentary. ServeHAITI, a philanthropic organization headquartered in Atlanta Georgia, is using the film as a fund-raiser.
"We felt very honored for the recognition given to us for the Haiti show," Timothy Kane said. "It was an honor to help ServeHAITI tell their story and the Gold Addy and Best of Show awards really put the icing on the cake. But actually the biggest inspiration of the evening came from watching all of the other tremendous advertising and marketing work that's being done in the Quad Cities."
The Student Best of Show winner, Nicole Harrison from Clinton Community College, received a $1,000 scholarship. Funds raised by the Quad City Advertising Federation go toward scholarships for aspiring ad students and funding for member programming.
