The AICP (Association of Independent Commercial Producers) Awards 2009, Los Angeles event was held last night at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (or LACMA as we like to call it). I happened upon the amazing opportunity to attend and watch the the awards show. The event brought in about 100-300 industry folks (advertising, television and the like) all there to enjoy the one thing that I think most people would agree to dislike about public television: commercials. Congratulations to all the agencies for their stellar and highly entertaining work! Among them: 72andSunnySaatchi & Saatchi, Ogilvy and TBWA\Chiat\Day.

A cool and new category that the AICP just began recognizing in the recent years were viral ad campaigns, integrated campaigns and microsites. Pretty cool!

Here's one of my favorite honorees in the animation category (a Nike commercial of course!)
