MediaPost Digital Out-Of-Home Awards

Our digital signage work for the TELUS launch of the HTC Diamond is a finalist in the Best Point-of-Sale Campaign category at the 2009 MediaPost Digital Out-Of-Home Awards. We’re up against R/GA for their Verizon Retail work and Moxie Interactive for their Blackberry Storm signage, and that’s great company to be in.

We’ll know who won on April 22nd. Wish us luck.

T+L Wins Two Effies

Our work for the SunChips Solar Launch Campaign won Effies in both the Green and Snacks/Desserts/Confections categories at the 2009 Effie Awards. But we’ll have to wait until June 8th to find out the flavour. In the meantime, feel free to read our SunChips Get Green case study.

Special thanks and congratulations go out to our good friends at SunChips, Juniper Park, and OMD.

Big news. Our most recent TELUS project is the FWA site of the day. Thanks to everyone who helped make the Magic Machine a huge success.

UPDATE: Apparently, yesterday was the FWA’s “highest trafficked day ever, with over 60,000 site visits.” I wonder if we had anything to do with that.

We were just told that three of our projects will be included in the 2008 Applied Arts Interactive Annual – namely our 2007 TELUS Holiday Campaign, TELUS MyFaves Campaign, and AIR MILES Jealous of Miles microsite. We’re big fans of Applied Arts so this is a huge honour. Look for the annual wherever you buy magazines that recognize kick-ass interactive agencies.

In addition, we recently we won two certificates (for the same projects) at the Digital Marketing Awards – one for the AIR MILES Jealous of Mile microsite and the other for the 2007 TELUS Holiday Gift Guide. We hoped for hardware, but as they say, “it was an honour to be nominated.”

Congratulations to the entire T+L team and special thanks to our enthusiastic clients.

We’re pleased to announce that our work won three silvers at the 2008 International Davey Awards. The AIRMILES Make Like Miles microsite, the J.P.Morgan Funds site (financial services) and our own Teehan+Lax site (self-promotion) were recognized.

Congratulations to the entire Teehan+Lax team. And special thanks to our AIR MILES and J.P.Morgan partners. Your enthusiasm and collaboration make these awards possible.

It’s an honour to be nominated, but it’s an even bigger honour to win. And win we did. Four of our projects were recognized with hardware at the 2008 W3 Awards.

GOLD - AirMiles Make Like Miles Microsite
GOLD – TELUS Mobility LG Shine Video Bbox (Rich Media)
SILVER - TELUS Mobility 2007 Holiday Campaign Microsite
SILVER - TELUS Mobility MyFaves Campaign

Congratulations to the entire team at Teehan+Lax who brought these projects to life. And a special thanks to our clients who continue to see the value in creating great user experiences.

We’ve just been notified that the 2007 TELUS Gift Guide has been selected as the official Adobe Site of the Day for Tuesday, December 11. Check it out here.

Thanks to Adobe for the honour, and to TELUS for the continued opportunity to do great work.

We’re getting some nice feedback for the 2007 TELUS Gift Guide. We just got the nod as a site of the week at Cool Homepages, plus a mention from, um…well, we’re not exactly sure, but we really appreciate the link.
