Interactive Award Trophies

This Year's New York Festivals Awards Project Video with Sound

— May 2, 2014 — Marketing
Getting a recognized for good work is always rewarding, but the recipients of a trophy from this year's New York Festivals will get an extra treat. In celebration of the city's history and iconic skyline, Sagmeister & Walsh created a unique trophy set that mimics the buildings of the city. As a group, the awards look like a miniature version of NYC's clustered buildings, but on their own, the trophies are equally as impressive too.

When picked up, each individual trophy is equipped with an SD card that projects a video with sound, showing the winning case study and the agency credits. If one particular agency manages to clean up nicely at the award show, taking these trophies back to keep at the office makes for a pretty interesting display.
