The American Advertising Federation (AAF) Fox River hosted a “Wicked”-themed evening for the 2024 American Advertising Awards on March 6, 2025 at Poplar Hall in Appleton, and we’re thrilled to share some exciting news—our team took home nine awards, including four Silver ADDY Awards, four Gold ADDY Awards, and the prestigious Best of Show Award!
These awards are a testament to the outstanding work created by the Image Studios team in 2024. This year, we had the honor of celebrating as a newly merged team with NorthCoast—a union that has only strengthened our creativity and expertise. This recognition reflects the passion and innovation that drive us as we move forward together.
These awards are not just a celebration of our team’s creativity—they’re a reflection of the incredible partnerships and community that make our work possible. To our clients, thank you for trusting us to bring your vision to life; your stories continue to inspire us. To our fellow winners, congratulations on raising the bar for creativity—we’re proud to be in such talented company.
