Parsippany, NJ (November 21, 2006) Interactive Media Associates, Inc. (IMA), a leading Internet service provider, today announced that it is a Silver winner in the 2006 Davey Awards competition. IMA was honored for its outstanding creative work for our work in redesigning the mr.steam.com (www.mrsteam.com) Web site.
The Davey Awards is an international award focused exclusively on honoring outstanding creative work from the best small firms worldwide. The 2006 Davey Awards received over 3,500 entries from ad agencies, interactive agencies, production firms, in-house creative professionals, and others. The Davey is judged and overseen by the International Academy of the Visual Arts (IAVA), an invitation-only member-based organization of leading professionals from various disciples of the visual arts dedicated to embracing progress and the evolving nature of traditional and interactive media. See www.iavisarts.org for more information.
The recently redesigned mr.steam Web site was undertaken to match the company’s new branding – a clean, classy look based around several iconic models, a new logo, and recasting old product names so that they all fit under the mr.steam umbrella. In addition, the new site includes an updated press section, several interactive features, and a zip code dealer locator application.
Charles Monteverdi, President of mr.steam, said: "It has been Mr.Steam’s pleasure to be associated with Interactive Media, our site designer and Web master, for over five years. We congratulate them on receiving the Silver Davey Award. It was well deserved."
