Tasmanian AMI Awards: Winners announced

I've never been big on awards ceremonies, but Tassie marketing's night of nights has a lot of good things going for it - not least of which being its zero-tolerance policy on big fuckoff acceptance speeches.

It was a sweet night, and hats must go off to the Floatingworld and Walker Designs crews for delivering brilliant live pitches, and of course to MC Richard Crawford - who is consistently hilarious.

Anyway, here's the winners:

• Marketer of the Year - Peter Choraziak
• Emerging Marketer of the Year - Scott Woodhouse
• Student Marketer of the Year - Christiane King
• Brand Extension - MyState Financial / Red Jelly
• Brand Revitalisation - Country Club Tasmania
• Consumer Insight - Aurora / Red Jelly
• Corporate Social Responsibility - MyState Financial / Red Jelly
• Experiential and Band Experiences - Clemenger Tasmania
• Green Marketing - Aurora / Red Jelly
• Marketing Communications - MyState Financial / Red Jelly
• New Product / Service Launch - Aurora Energy / Red Jelly
• Social Marketing - Aurora / Red Jelly

It's good to see so much talent kicking around Tasmania - and then so much of that coming massively unstuck at the Cargo afterparty. Shout outs to the AMI for another solid local gig.
