Asheville Addy Awards This Saturday

Asheville Ad Federation

Asheville's chapter of the American Advertising Federation is holding their annual awards ceremony this coming Saturday.

From their website:

Advertising's answer to the Oscars, the ADDYs is a party not to be missed. See all types of ad creativity revealed in all its glory (e.g., ad campaign, direct marketing, sales promotion, newspaper, television, mixed media, and more.) Guaranteed to be raucous and wild, come see amazing feats of our ad community's best talent at The Venue in downtown Asheville!

No mention of radio? Say it ain't so! I'm sure someone's submitted some creative radio spots. If not, well...come talk to us. SunSpots produces Addy Award winners for markets all over the country.

We wish all the agencies the best of luck!

Zak gets half-naked for the 2009 Orlando Addy Awards

This year's Orlando Addy Awards were presented at the Shakespeare Theater with a Shakespearean theme and in keeping with that theme Treefrog Cinegrafix, Inc. produced videos with Shakespeare's characters parodying our delightful biz. This video was filmed here at SunSpots Productions Florida studios and even stars the studio manager, Zak Miller. The "engineer" was filmed in Xavier's studio and Zak was in one of our six voice booths.
Notice the Christmas tree branch on his head. We couldn't find any olive branches for his ceremonial garb. Hail Zakus!
