Launch Adds More Trophies to the Shelf

Posted by LAUNCH AGENCY in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX on Dec 06, 2010

Continuing the success at award shows, Launch loaded up on more goodies this summer.

The 2010 Dallas Society of Visual Communications Show had several Launch pieces in contention for awards, including TV and interactive work for smart center DFW and posters for the Voice Foundation. Members of the Launch team were on hand for the festivities, and walked away with a Bronze award for the Voice Foundation’s “Warning Signs” campaign. Credits include Dean Oram, AD; Kevin Byrd, CW; David Wilgus and Diane Seimetz, CDs; Alison Hamilton, AE; Laura Carroll, print production; Randal Ford, photographer, and retouching by Portus Imaging. This campaign previously was honored at the local and regional Addy Shows. We are equally proud that the Voice Foundation has gotten good traction and awareness from this work. See the award winning posters.

At the 16th Annual Communicator Awards, an international competition honoring creative excellence by communications professionals, Launch took home an “Award of Excellence” in the automotive category for the Park Place Dealerships website. Launch partnered with developer eCarList to bring it to live. The site mixes an upscale design that reflects the luxurious elements of the vehicles Park Place carries with easy to use inventory search functionality. The Launch team included Richard Wezensky, AD; Kevin Byrd, CW; David Wilgus and Diane Seimetz, CDs; Alison Hamilton, AE.
