STARMEN Scores 7 Trophies from International Marketing Competition Communicator Awards

It’s been a warm summer, and things are hot over here at STARMEN. Right on the heels of the Horizon Awards, STARMEN was awarded 7 trophies from the 19th annual Communicator Awards! The competition receives entries from both small and large agencies from all over the globe. Self-touted as “the largest and most competitive awards program honoring creative excellence among communications professionals,” the Communicator Awards received over 6,000 entries this year. Winners were chosen based on quality of the entry, regardless of company or agency size or project budget.

The competition is overseen and judged by the International Academy of Visual Arts, an exclusive organization comprised of 600+ executives from marketing, advertising, and media firms. IAVA members include professionals from Condé Nast, Coach, Disney, MTV Networks, Sotheby's Institute of Art, Time, Inc, Victoria's Secret, Wired, and Yahoo. Another cool detail about this particular competition is the fact that the trophies are made by RS Owens, the company that produces the Oscar and Emmy awards!

We were also psyched to see our integrated design efforts score some recognition. We won silver trophies for corporate identity in the logo and package design categories, as well as brochure design. Creatively-designed packaging and brochures help make brands more memorable, and we’re proud that both our interactive and traditional branding efforts earned a spot on our growing list of award-winning achievements:
