MCG Wins Gold, Platinum AVA Digital Awards

MCG Honored to Announce 3 Wins in the 2017 AVA Digital Awards

 

The winning projects include:

 

PLATINUM:  “Twas the Night Before Deadline” Animated Video: Marketing

 

PLATINUM: “Twas the Night Before Deadline” Animated Video: Writing

 

GOLD: NIA “Superhero” Radio Spot

 

 

“Twas the Night Before Deadline” unveils a look at what can happen when our creative design company is up against deadline. As an advertising, marketing, and design agency based outside of Chicago that serves numerous industries across the nation, we are always up for a challenge. This animated piece is a combination of classic storytelling set against the backdrop of the popular holiday rhyme.

 

In the category of writing, for which the video also won a Platinum Award, the script cites several cultural references from “Mad Men,” “It’s a Wonderful Life,” and “Seinfeld’s” Art Vandelay, the eponymous creator of Vandelay Industries.

 

The “Superhero” radio spot for client Northern Illinois Alliance positioned NIA as the superhero who “swoops” in to save a young, hungry crop by providing all the tools and nutrients it needs to grow big and strong. MCG also designed and created the NIA logo and branding:
