Written by TrizCom

More than 184 Professionals and 15 Students Honored at 54th annual AAF Dallas American Advertising Awards

DALLAS — Feb. 19,2016 The American Advertising Federation – Dallas (AAF Dallas) honored the best advertising professionals in the business at the 54th annual AAF Dallas American Advertising Awards, held at Gas Monkey Live on Feb. 18, 2016. More commonly known as the ADDY® Awards competition, the American Advertising Awards receives more than 40,000 entries across the country, competing at three different levels – local, district and national. Gold winners from the AAF Dallas American Advertising Awards will advance to competition at the district level.

Over  602 entries were submitted this year from more than 70 Dallas advertising agencies and universities. Stephen Cargile, principal creative designer, Walt Disney; Eunie Kwon, interactive design director, Mirum; and Marcelo Padoca, creative director at The Community, served as judges.

With a theme mirroring the increasingly popular Fantasy Football movement, AAF Dallas created Fantasy Advertising to engage both entrants and attendees with the creative thinking that emerges in advertising.  Moroch developed this theme to enhance the experience of all in attendance.

Following the awards ceremony, attendees celebrated their accomplishments at the event’s after-party featuring live music by The Live 5 Band.

The American Advertising Awards 2016 sponsors included Blanks, Breed Music, Clampitt Paper, The Company of Others, Creative Circle, Dave & Busters, Dodie’s Reef, Gas Monkey Live, Greg Sunmark, Huddle Productions, Lucky 21, Lucky Post, Skyline, MMT, Moroch, Republic Editorial, Shoptology, Side Chops, SocialCentiv, Southern Methodist University, Speakeasy, The Richards Group, The Ticket, TrizCom Public Relations, and Vitamin T.
