My local weather journal, which was originally created six years ago, covers a wide range of topics, including local climatology, the effects of weather on mood and sports, in-depth summaries of local storms, weather history, astronomy, monthly weather previews and summaries, and photos and videos from viewers. New blog entries are published two-to-three times a week.
The Communicator Award continues an impressive ten-year stretch, which includes a prestigious New York Emmy award (2007), four Emmy nominations (New England, 2005; New York, 2007, 2008, and 2010), four Connecticut Associated Press Broadcasters' Association awards for Best Weathercast (2006, 2008, 2009, and 2012), and two Associated Press honorable mentions (2004 and 2011).
The Communicator Awards is sanctioned and judged by the International Academy of Visual Arts, an invitation-only body consisting of top-tier professionals from acclaimed media, communications, advertising, creative and marketing firms. IAVA members include executives from organizations such as Airtype Studio, Big Spaceship, Conde Nast, Coach, Disney, The Ellen Degeneres Show, Estee Lauder, Fry Hammond Barr, Lockheed Martin, MTV Networks, Pitney Bowes, Sotheby's Institute of Art, Time, Inc, Victoria's Secret, Wired, and Yahoo!
Winning entries for the Communicator Awards are selected by the IAVA to uphold a commitment to fairness and merit-based achievement. This ensures each entry is afforded an equal chance of winning an award as all entries are judged to evaluate distinction in creative work. In determining Excellence and Distinction Winners, entries are judged based on a standard of excellence in marketing and communications. Judging is based purely on quality of craft.
