説明 | Two of my babies were recognized this year at the national ASBPE awards in NYC. A bittersweet honor, since the company was sold in the meantime, and I didn't make the final cut with the new company. So I got to hear about the winners from some loyal ex-coworkers. Publishing is a brutal gig sometimes. But the DHS cover was a kick because, as it turns out, hatchling vultures look more like bald eagles than bald eagles. So, my patriotic metaphor for the newly reorganized Homeland Security Department is......a baby buzzard. Read into that what you will.And somehow it worked. The cover won a national Gold (front cover, news tabloid 80,000+ circ).The Vista cover was not one of my favorites, so I'm not sure why the hell it won. All the tech magazines were doing cover-stories on Vista, and they all looked the same. Desperate for a different angle, I decided the windows logo looked like a piece of stale sushi. The rest is history. That one won the national bronze for Front Cover, Computer Generated. A mega pun on the words "vista" (as in the OS as well as scenic views, in the other plates) and "served" (as in, food and file-servers) ... bah! Too many puns on one cover. It should not have won. But hell, it's a couple of nuggets for the resume. I was happy with the vulture DHS cover, though. |
