Obama for America Campaign Wins Top Prizes in Cannes
June 29, 2009 | Levent OZLER
The advertising and marketing campaign that helped propel Barack Obama into the White House has been honored with the two top prizes - the Titanium Grand Prix and the Integrated Grand Prix - from the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival.
Chicago-based Mode Project was one of the main creative partners in the campaign, assisting its longtime client and the lead agency, AKPD Message and Media.
Mode Project oversaw the design of the now famous Obama logo and produced more than 200 broadcast commercials and additional digital content during the course of the primary and general election.
Of the Cannes win for Obama for America, Mode Project's Colin Carter says, "We were honored to be a part of the Obama for America campaign and congratulate everyone on the Obama Media Team in this historic, game-changing endeavor.
The Cannes honor is the highest in advertising and knowing we contributed to the successes of the campaign gives us a sense of accomplishment, second only to the election's outcome."
