November 25, 2008 - Earthbound Media Group (EMG) is excited to announce the addition of two more awards to its trophy case thanks to the 2008 International Davey Awards and its ongoing work within the higher education and healthcare industries. Providing some of the most cutting-edge and creative web design worldwide, EMG’s two Silver Davey Award-winning submissions were carefully selected for recognition from more than 4,000 entries from the United States and around the globe.
The first Silver Davey was awarded in the Health category for Loma Linda University Medical Center’s (LLUMC) enterprise-level, content managed website www.lomalindahealth.org. The second Silver Davey went to the online, video-based virtual tour developed for the University of La Verne www.ulv.edu/virtualtour (ULV) and was awarded in the Recruitment category.
“On behalf of EMG’s dynamic and multifaceted team, we are thrilled to have been recognized by the Davey’s, especially because it specifically honors work developed by small firms,” said EMG Creative Director and Partner Lawrence Williford. “This is a testimony to our team’s talent, persistence and dedication to delivering excellent work and surpassing our client’s expectations every time.”
Strategically designed to be user-centric and intuitive, LLUMC’s lomalindahealth.org website and ULV’s Recruitment microsite both provide a total, branded user experience. The carefully crafted user interface built for each organization actively engages its respective audience to discover and learn more about each organization’s services and offerings. Each award-winning website is then characterized by stunning photographic elements supplemented by advanced technologies such as video and flash.
Adjudicated and overseen by the International Academy of Visual Arts (IAVA), the 4th annual Davey Awards honors the high-quality work produced by small firms, agencies and companies. Recognized for their caliber, the winning entries were awarded with the following distinctions: Best-in-Show, Gold and Silver. Entries were evaluated according to the IAVA’s standards of excellence and scored on a 10-point-scale, in which gold winners received a score of 9.0 and above and silver winners received a score of 7.0 to 8.9. Overall, Davey Award winners are recognized for setting themselves apart from the industry, delivering big and bright ideas with limited to small budgets.
