Another big night of awards and hundreds of lively Australian advertising people, agencies and clients. Hosted by Peter Overton surrounded by high school cheerleaders it was a fun night by all counts.
The good news for us; Amnesia Razorfish somehow scooped the Interactive Agency of the Year for the 3rd running. Admittedly a huge surprise for us as we felt all the other agencies in the digital category (Deepend, Soap, Host, and Tribal DDB) were all deserving given the great digital work they had all done in the industry in the last 12 months.
In addition Amnesia Razorfish also received a “Highly Commended” award in the Media Agency of the Year category – something we’ve been working hard on for a couple of years now so great to get some recognition in this space.
The big award of the night, (the overall Agency of the Year) went to winner of NSW Agency of the Year, Host – a popular choice by all counts.
Thanks to AdNews for putting on another great night

Terrific news – absolutely wonderful.
I know everyone at Amnesia was genuinely concerned that after Simon Corbett moved on you would not be able to win the award again. It must be huge relief to you all that you have managed to step out of his considerable shadow and be recognised in your own right. I am sure that Simon is very happy for you too…obviously I am NOT Simon…I am just a complete stranger who has just stumbled across your blog and who happens to know how terrific Simon is.
I am definitely NOT him,. That would be sad and a little desperate if he was trying in vain to ride off the back of your success… Well done again.

Mr Corbett, how we survived without you I will never know. Then again your legacy will live on for years to come…
