Best of Show

The 43rd Annual Oklahoma City Addy Awards was held this past Saturday on Valentine's Day. The Addy Awards are awards that recognize the work of advertising agencies on a local level. It is always a really great time and a chance to get all gussied up and show off what a great place you work for. This year it was easy to feel proud of Third Degree. (where I work)



The Grand Daddy award of the night is the Best of Show category. It is the overall award for the best display of work for the entire awards show. This year WE WON!!



Buck the Norm (a project which has sort of been my baby for the last year) dominated in several categories and topped of the night by taking home Best of Show!



Check out this video which pretty much sums up what Buck the Norm is all about.



The best part was that this video won several other Gold Addy awards so we got to watch it over and over again. (And yell really loud over and over again.) You will also see a little cameo of me in there. : )

BucktheNorm.com also took Best Interactive and our :30 TV spot took Best of Broadcast. It was quite a night to say the least. I am so proud to say I work for Third Degree. It is a tremendous place to work and I am surrounded everyday by brilliant talented people. Go Team! And a special thanks to Tinker Federal Credit Union! (the client who lets us do crazy things like Buck the Norm everyday)



p.s. I will post more about the craziness of the gala later. Brace yourself.
