Ocoee, FL (PRWEB) June 07, 2012

PromaxBDA, an international association of design and marketing professionals in the entertainment industry, hosts the PromaxBDA Local Awards to celebrate best practices in promotion, marketing and design at local television news affiliates across the U.S. Local Award entries are submitted by news stations or producers of the end product. The Gold, Silver and Bronze award winners will be announced at a ceremony scheduled for June 28, 2012 in Las Vegas at the PromaxBDA Station Summit.

Mack McLaughlin, FXs CEO and Creative Director elaborated on the companys design approach. When we begin the creative process, our team certainly doesnt design for the sole purpose of winning an award. Continues McLaughlin, We design for the clients success and their goals – connecting with their viewers and strengthening their brand. But being acknowledged for design excellence is icing on the cake and we appreciate the recognition.

The two nominated FX finalists share several overall design features including: contemporary, vibrant, light-driven backgrounds; multi-screen monitor arrays; multiple presentation venues and flexibility for different camera shots. And they each had their own unique project goals and objectives.

For KPIX the goals were to create a dynamic environment with maximum flexibility, many shooting positions and upgraded technology. Also, to showcase the CBS O&O graphic look with video and light-driven elements that reflect the Bay Areas tri-city market. FX collaborated with KPIX to create a versatile, vibrant look with three zero-bezel video walls that serve as video canvases to interact with a story.

The dynamic Anchor Wall can feature anything from live shots to moving graphics. The two smaller walls in the Multi-Purpose and Traffic areas are on rolling carts for ultimate flexibility. The wraparound, self-illuminating environment offers numerous shot positions. The finishes and shapes embrace the CBS O&O look: frosted Plexiglas, metal mesh, brushed pewter and variegated shades of blue. The C-shaped columns echo the shape of the CBS eye and graphic montages of local scenic icons reflect the tri-city market. The set, targeted to KPIXs core audience of Adults 25-54 has been extremely well-received by viewers. For photos and video visit http://fxgroup.tv/portfolio/kpix-tv/

For KJRH the goals were to create a warm, versatile news environment that better exploits depth of field on a restricted budget. FX designers focused on redesigning the set layout and the existing weather area to improve functionality. FX worked with KJRH to combine new components with scenic updates of existing ones, including colorful backlit elements, modern finishes, and a high-tech video wall.

The redesigned weather center allows three meteorologists to face outward and converse on camera during Tulsa’s severe weather. The backlit backdrop features frames of frosted Plexiglas to enhance the illusion of depth in HD. The anchor desk is angled asymmetrically into a studio corner, creating deeper camera angles and a relationship shot to Weather. A rolling cart with a 2×2 stack of Ultrathin Bezel LCD tiles provides an alternate anchor backdrop and a focal point for reporter stand-ups. The design for the NBC affiliate targeted its 2554 demographic and has been well received by younger viewers who laud its fresh design approach.

Giant Octopus, FXs motion design and animation division, and past PromaxBDA winners, also received a bid in this years awards. Two of Giant Octopus motion designs were chosen as finalists in two different categories. WABC-TV was chosen for Image Promotion while KXAN-TV was selected for the News Package category.

In advance of the announcement of the winners, a team from FX will be attending and exhibiting at the Station Summit the second year of an annual event that focuses on local television news affiliates. The 2012 PromaxBDA Station Summit is a four-day conference where networks, station groups, syndicators and local broadcasters discuss and debate the issues, trends and emerging business opportunities driving success in local television.

Deerfield Beach, FL (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

While the news is filled with commentaries about the economy going down, not growing fast enough or going overseas, CollegeComplete.com has continued its growth and plans to add 20% more staff this month. A special focus has been placed with hiring returning veterans and military personnel.

College Complete opened its office doors in Deerfield Beach, Florida in September 2010. In the year and a half since then, they have grown from 15 people to nearly 40 Education Advocates. Every Advocate goes through an internal training process to learn about the high standards that College Complete holds itself to, as well as about the schools and systems that are in place to ensure the each and every student is given the most accurate choices available.

By the time that training is complete, each Advocate is able to guide potential students through the process of identifying schools that fit their geographical and educational needs. This matching process is done at no cost to the student and is followed up with an email of recommended questions to ask once the student speaks with the individual school.

With such rapid hiring in its Florida Headquarters, CollegeComplete.com has turned to NASCAR driver Justin Lofton to help get the word out to the public about the benefits of continuing education as well as about openings at College Complete.

Daniel Haim, CEO of College Complete said, We are extremely grateful to be able to have experienced the rapid growth that we have so far. I cannot thank the community, NASCAR fans and the students that we help enough to express how humbled we are.

The next group of employees will begin work at the end of June and executives at College Complete are already planning for additional hires this year with a goal of bringing their 2 year growth to 400% by the end of the year.
