We walked away with 2 Finalists awards for our Hey Joe campaign at the Australian Graphic Design Association’s 2008 Biannual Awards recently. The campaign has been a great success; ensuring we stay front of mind within our community and has delivered a steady stream of very talented and capable people to the igloo to have a crack at becoming digital eskimos.

The awards honoured creativity and execution and were for Self Promotion and Promotion to the Creative Industry. Special mention should go to Penny who oversaw the project, Chris Gaul who designed the ‘Babushkimo’ dolls and the campaign look and feel, Anja on flash coding/animation, the team at Mooball, led by Tom Cameron who coded the backend referral engine (we can track who forwards to whom to confirm who to pay when we hire someone) and Duncan Underwood who heads up the HR activities here at Digital Eskimo.

Apologies to Eskimo Joe for the blatant name rip-off …
