Work honored by AIGA Indianapolis

The gang here at the home office was excited to learn that three of our entries in the PRIME AIGA Indy Design Awards were selected. Just over 30 pieces were chosen from work created by local designers over the last two years. The three Dean Johnson winners are the Indiana Economic Development Corp print ad campaign, the 2008 Indy Jazz Fest multi–media marketing campaign and the new identity for Riley Area Development Corporation. Judge for yourself. PRIME will be on display in the Dean Johnson Gallery. See below for details.

Cleantech initiative: innovation + investment = jobs

Federal stimulus funds totaling more than $39 million for investments in Indiana electric grid was announced last week. Back when the proposals were being made, we developed two video animations for Energy Systems Network, CICP’s clean technology initiative, one on smart grid systems and the other on hybrid vehicle technology. We wrote the scripts, developed storyboards and art, created the soundtrack and produced Flash animation. And created logos for each initiative, all in record–time for the governor to present to industry leaders.
