PartnersCreative wins state’s top advertising honors at Montana ADDY Awards

A commercial about losing a mother to breast cancer/procrastination, a commercial with a horse picking up his friend from a bar, a Web video illustrating the beauty of filming movies in Montana and an exhibit showing everyday Montanans’ photography at a city art museum are all part of the creative portfolio that won the Missoula-based marketing and communications firm PartnersCreative http://www.partnerscreative.com top honors at the Montana ADDY® Awards Show on February 5, 2011, recognizing the state’s advertising industry.

The state chapter of the American Advertising Federation (AFF), the Great Falls Ad Club, presented PartnersCreative with 16 Gold ADDY awards, including Best of Show – Broadcast for its "Jesse" television commercial created for Advanced Imaging that encourages women not to procrastinate about getting a mammogram. The same commercial also won the competition’s overall Best of Show award.

PartnersCreative’s work for Advanced Imaging, a medical imaging provider in Missoula, won five Gold ADDYs for mixed media, radio and television campaigns and individual commercials. The Montana Department of Transportation’s "Sober Friend" television commercial, which garnered MDT national media coverage last month, also earned PartnersCreative a Gold ADDY.

The agency’s broadcast work also won Gold ADDYs for WorkSafeMT, the Montana Film Office and the Missoula Art Museum. In addition, the Missoula Art Museum’s "Snap Art" nontraditional campaign and exhibit and the Rocky Mountain School of Photography’s print catalog garnered the agency Gold ADDYs.

AFF also presented PartnersCreative 20 Silver ADDY awards for creative work produced for many of the agency’s other clients, including Big Sky Resort, OZ Architects, Caffè Dolce and Five Valleys Land Trust. Including bronze awards, PartnersCreative received a total of 53 ADDYs at the award show.

All Gold ADDY award submissions will go on to compete at the regional level with agencies throughout the Northwest. Samples of PartnersCreative’s work can be viewed at http://www.partnerscreative.com.
