INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY HONORS
CREATIVE PRODUCERS GROUP WITH "CRYSTAL AWARD OF EXCELLENCE"
AND "AWARD OF DISTINCTION"

Designation Marks 14-15th Time for St. Louis Innovation Team

Creative Producers Group (CPG) took home two more honors from The Communicator Awards 2005 competition for its unique production of the United Van Lines "Operator of the Year" and "Convention Open" videos.

According to Senior Vice President, Steve Friedman, CPG "took a very personal approach when developing winners' profiles for the "Operator of the Year" awards at the United Van Lines national convention." 'Like an Olympic athlete profile,' he added, 'these videos delve into the lives of the operators rather than just announce their honors with employee statistics.' 'It's gratifying to know that we were able to capture the essence of these individuals, by sharing their stories and unique personalities." continued Friedman. "Winning an award for our work is just the icing on the cake."

CPG consistently leads the industry by developing projects that mirror their clients' objectives. "At the end of the day, we know, says CPG President, Keith Alper, "that our events are part of a much bigger strategy - in this case, employee retention." Our goal is never just to throw a great event or produce a "fun" video. CPG is in the business of translating objectives into experiences that leave a lasting impression." For United Van Lines, one of our oldest clients, "we insist on hitting the target each and every year."

The Communicator Awards is an international awards competition that recognizes outstanding work in the communications field. Entries are judged by industry professionals who look for companies and individuals whose talent exceeds a high standard of excellence and whose work serves as a benchmark for the industry.
