It’s time for the Emmy award ceremony. Last year I entered one promotional spot and had no expectations of receiving an award but to my surprise, I walked away with a statue. It was a really fun and exciting experience.

This year a promotional campaign I produced/wrote is up for an Emmy (thanks to the awesome work of Steve Lyew the Art Director). We are hoping for the best. I have to tell you once you win one… you really want to win another one!!

It’s up to each employee to submit their work for consideration. There isn’t anyone watching out for the really great stuff — we have to take a leap and select what we think is our best work. There’s also a submission fee for each entry. I guess it serves as a deterrent otherwise people would enter everything under the sun and just hope something gets picked!

I remember thinking last year it would be my spot against all the rest - may the best one win. But in any category everyone can win, no one can win or any combination in between. Entries are judged individually not against other entries.

I’ll just keep my fingers crossed and hope I’m as lucky as last year!
