ClarkHuot/Cocoon Goes All The Way to 11

Last night, our very own Kyle Romaniuk, Chris Clarke, Anthony Kowalczyk, and Christopher Samms attended the 2012 “Devil in the Details” Signature Awards Gala Dinner, celebrating the best and brightest in Winnipeg’s advertising, design, and marketing communications industry.

And it seems our pact with the Infernal Powers Below worked — eleven Signature wins and seven runner-up awards, in categories including:

Interactive, for our work on the DECO App

Radio and Outdoor, for our work Eastern Chrysler Dodge Jeep

Logo/Brandmark winner and runner-up for WJB Capital and The Dream Factory

Two Judge’s Favourite awards for our work with The Dream Factory and the Assiniboine Park Conservancy

We also took home some very nice glass for best packaging, illustration, corporate video, and design. Of course we couldn’t have enjoyed this level of success without the trust and support of our amazing clients — something we couldn’t appreciate more. Thank you!

While Kyle, Chris, Anthony and Christopher accepted the awards on behalf of the company, many of us followed the action live by Twitter and text from 167 Lombard, grooving to the sounds of 70s Soul and 90s Hip Hop. Needless to say, the warm glowing warming glow of 11 little discs on our windowsill is keeping the atmosphere cheery in here today.

The quality this year was impressive, and we have to congratulate all of the hard-working account managers, designers, writers, and creatives whose agencies participated this year. Great work, no matter what agency produces it, betters our industry overall. We look forward to more fierce competition next year!

Finally, a big thank you to the Advertising Association of Winnipeg for organizing and hosting the event.

And now… BACK TO WORK!
