Lanmark Group Wins Four Marcom Creative Awards
New Jersey Advertising, Marketing and Communications Agency Nabs Two Platinum, One Gold and One Honorable Mention in International Competition
Eatontown, NJ, November 18, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Lanmark Group, a full-service healthcare advertising, marketing, and communications agency, is pleased to announce that it was recognized by MarCom Creative Awards, an international competition for marketing and communication professionals, with four awards in the 2005 MarCom Creative Awards Competition.
Specifically, Lanmark Group received awards for creative projects the firm developed for Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company, The Garden State Film Festival, Sirona Dental Systems, and Ansell Healthcare.
Out of 4,613 entries in the 2005 competition, Lanmark Group was honored with two coveted platinum MarCom awards for creative work done for the Garden State Film Festival (GSFF) and Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company.
The winning piece created for the Garden State Film Festival is a fresh new corporate logo and identity that Lanmark Group created for the international film event. The new logo for the event, which displays a film projector with two Jersey tomatoes as its reels, will indefinitely represent the festival, an annual star-studded event that promotes the art of filmmaking on all levels by showcasing a wide variety of film, video, and animated works as well as providing educational programs in the creative arts to the public.
The second platinum-winning piece created by Lanmark Group was for a direct mailer created for the Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company. The seasonal Orbit Halloween Sampler was distributed to over 3,000 pediatric dental offices in order to promote a fun and effective way to help fight cavities. Inside the 4-fold-out direct mail piece are hygiene-related puzzles for children and samples of five flavors of Wrigley’s Orbit® sugar free gum.
Lanmark Group also received a gold award for its work done for Sirona Dental Systems direct mail piece entitled “Life is Good with CEREC inLab.” The triple- fold-out mail piece includes a CD-ROM that introduces the CEREC inLab and emphasizes the time-saving benefits and technology of inLab’s CAD/CAM system, which automates the design and fabrication of dental restorations such as crowns and ceramic fillings.
In addition, Lanmark Group received an honorable mention for a trade journal advertisement created for Ansell Healthcare. The ad, entitled “Everything You Touch, We Touch” received recognition for its image of a surgical-gloved hand with the winning slogan.
“We’re extremely satisfied to be recognized by MarCom Creative Awards for our work and talent,” remarked Michael McCarthy, Chief Creative Officer, Lanmark Group. “Lanmark is a seasoned Jersey Shore agency, and we’re always excited to have our work compared to that of the huge ‘big city’ agencies. The four awards we received are due to our team of exceptional artists, copywriters, and production professionals, who made these projects burst into dynamic and compelling examples of marketing communications.”
