We had a great time at the annual Advertising Federation of Fort Wayne’s prom-themed 2010-2011 Addy Awards. The entire OLG team was joined by several great clients and partners, including the fine folks from Lodge Design, and our entire advertising and marketing community is (generally) a pleasure to spend time with. There’s just an incredible amount of great work being done in Northeast Indiana, and it’s a real honor to see some of our projects recognized amongst that work. This year, we received nine Gold Addys and five Silver Addys, for projects and campaigns including:

Arts United: Logo, Home for the Arts prospectus and DESSERT posters
AWS: www.awsusa.com website
Cinema Center: LebowskiFest poster
Fort Wayne Women’s Bureau: Walk a Mile in Her Shoes t-shirts
Indiana Michigan Power: Powering the Future economic development brochure
Lutheran Health Network: Dupont Hospital TV, Dupont Hospital outdoor, RediMed newspaper and Lutheran Hospital TV (music) (all in collaboration with @LodgeDesign)
Northeast Indiana Fund / Talent Initiative: www.talentmadehere.com website
Young Leaders of Northeast Indiana: 2020 Vision brochure

We also received one of those Addys that kinda comes with an asterisk, because it was in the “Advertising Agency ~ Self Promotion” category. Our 48-page ‘Lucky Ten’ yearbook received a Gold Addy and was one of four Judge’s Choice winners at the end of the night. If you’ve been receiving this newsletter for awhile, you know that Lucky Ten was kind of us doing everything we know how to do, all at once. If you want to relive any of those events, check out www.oneluckyguitar.com/luckyten. And while we’ve been a bit quiet on that front this year (we weren’t involved with 2010’s Down the Line), we don’t intend to be quiet for very much longer. Hold on tight.
