VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

Bruce · Posted: Thu Oct 29, 2009 5:17 pm Post subject: Somewhat Stunning Award

An ad agency I work with won an award for an online campaign featuring a video that I wrote and voiced last year, but we're a little stunned for two reasons...the agency didn't submit the material but the client did so we had no idea this was coming, and secondly while it's not a one of the most renowned awards, we did manage to win out over the runner-up IBM presentation created by Ogilvy & Mather Advertising, one of the most famous agencies around. A nice little ad agency in Dover, New Hampshire, and little old me.... feels good.

Here's a link to the award info from Business to Business Magazine: s/pbcs.dll/section?category=best2009online" target="_blank">http://www.btobonline.com/a Hobo Tounge

And here's a link to the video itself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kivo1pg2oqQ

It's a goofy little thing, but hey, it's an award winning goofy little thing.

I must confess I am somewhat stunned!

...but not at all surprised. You do good work, Mate.

Bruce,

Very cool. No surprise to me that you'd be an award winning ad writer, producer and voicer. Good for you!

Saaaweeeet. And I for one will never be able to say Rheometer again w/out rocking out. (really, I've had to talk about this co's products often...). Is it ok to have crushes on both PB & BM?
