Ad2 Charlotte was represented well be 3 members at this summer’s national AAF conference in Atlanta. If you appreciate advertising, or even just like superbowl commercials, then it was a party you would have loved. Beynd all the educational opportunities and the networking that we brought back to better Ad2Charlotte, the last night of the conference hosted the National Addy Awards, which is basically 2 hours of the best tv, print, and radio advertising from the past year. Very cool stuff.
Also, our fellow Ad2 Club from Tampa got to show off their AdCast, a video advertising news show they put on for their area. They interveiwed a who’s who of AAF and Ad2 members at the Addy’s with a pretty impressive video setup. Great advertising, an Open Bar, and cameras to capture it all. Below is the interview of Ad2 Charlotte president, Jason Keath, and you can go here to watch all the interviews.
