Yes, It’s Shameless Self-Promotion
Who’s Who?
What do BBDO, New York; Disney, Paris; Greenpeace; the BBC; and Brainstorm all have in common? Each won a Best in Show Award from the 2008 W3 Awards, a global competition for website and online content designers, creators, and promoters, judged by the International Academy of Visual Arts.
“In a competition pitting over 3,000 competitors, including Fortune 500 companies and international marketing agencies, we’re pleased to finish in the top 1 percent,� said Brainstorm’s president, Bob Blass.
What’s What?
Brainstorm also won a Gold Award for Visual Appeal for the site, Camino a la Universidad (The Road to College). The site brings interactive life to a research report on Latino’s post-secondary access and success by University of Texas at San Antonio professor Dr. Raymond Padilla.
“Brainstorm created a beautiful, culturally relevant, sharable way to interact with decades of research data without diminishing its depth and substance,� said Teresa Detrich of the Lumina Foundation, sponsor of the research and website.
This is Brainstorm’s third W3 Award, including a Silver Award in 2007 for a website promoting Community Health Network’s North Hospital.
