The Bookmarks Awards

• Cape Town on the 1 November 2012

The Bookmarks Awards aims to be unique and valuable in its focus on "measurable excellence", and proven success. No matter how brilliant the work is, it has no value unless it adds value.

The awards look at performance versus objectives. Entries need to show how the concept and delivery met a specific need, from brand awareness to building communities, from changing behaviour to increasing engagement. Judges are being carefully selected to ensure all categories are evaluated by the best in the business.

The big celebration will take place in an auditorium to ensure a more streamlined event. The evening promises glitz and glamour, elegance and flair.

Categories

Bookmarks categories focus on four key areas:

  1. Core awards: production and results across all digital channels - including websites, microsites, mobisites, advertising, search, social media, apps and tools, games, video and audio, and mixed media.
  2. Craft awards: interface, design and navigation, graphic design, illustration and animation, music and sound design, and tech innovation.
  3. Individual and team awards: editorial, advertising, creative, media planning and social marketing, search marketing, content and intern/student
  4. Special honours: Best Agency, Best Publisher and Best Individual Contribution to Digital, amongst other

The workshops will be held in Johannesburg on 30 October and in Cape Town on 31 October 2012.
