StudioNorth Wins BMA Gold Award for Work With CDW Healthcare

NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., July 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- StudioNorth was awarded a BMA Gold Award for its production of CDW's calendar, and two Bronze Awards for the International Justice Mission's (IJM) annual report and Follett Software Company's web site.  "Today when agencies are under greater pressure and scrutiny to meet business needs and objectives, StudioNorth walked away with not just one but three awards for its ability to creatively meet the needs of its customers," says Mark Mohr, President and Owner, StudioNorth. "We take pride in being more than just an agency – we partner with our clients to feel their pain and help identify ways to communicate with their stakeholders that help them stand out."

• The CDW 2011 calendar was developed for IT staff in hospitals and healthcare facilities to position the company as the technology solutions source. StudioNorth developed and applied a futuristic theme to offer an imaginative view of how today's technologies may morph in the decades – and centuries – ahead. The concept built on CDW's Healthcare brand by connecting their current healthcare technology offerings to these "out-there" gadgets of the future.
• The International Justice Mission (IJM) Annual Report was designed to effectively communicate IJM's commitment to protecting those who cannot protect themselves.  "No one else is doing justice work on such a comprehensive scale in the areas of victim relief, perpetrator accountability, victim after-care and community transformation," said Chris Cacci, Art Director, StudioNorth. "And so we capitalized on this opportunity to depict both tragedy and triumph."
• The new Follett web site and tagline – support for the life cycle of learning – allows visitors to identify the right educational solutions. "A fresh design was important, but more important was a need to update Follett's brand positioning and ensure the design conveyed Follett's brand equity and expertise in the industry, as well as the comprehensive breadth of their solution offerings," said Jim DeVuono, Director, Client Services.
