As the event coordinators for this year's Creative Communication Media Awards, Kristel and I have worked very hard to introduce a couple new things to the awards. We are very excited to be adding Best Blog and the Alumni Award of Achievement to the list of award categories!
Our graduating class is very unique in the way that we are some of the first groups of CreComms to bust into the communications industry with an abundance of social media knowledge under our belt. Past graduates were never assigned to write about a certain topic on their blog or to create a Twitter account and because of this, we added the new Best Blog Award.
Let's see... what makes a good blog? Well consistency is the first. Posting blogs on a daily, or weekly basis. Interesting or cohesive topics. You don't want to read a blog about nothing and if the blog has a theme, that is even better. Using links, pictures and videos makes blogs more interactive and fun. Many of our classmates use those for their blogs and many are very talented writers. We look forward to the submissions!
Another great addition to the 2011 CCMAs is the Creative Communications Alumni Award of Achievement. We chose to add this award to take advantage of the family of CreComms that Creative Communications has made. Many graduates are our mentors, many inspire us and encourage us to work hard to achieve our future goals. By creating this award, we will unite students with graduates and in turn, potential employers with upcoming grads. It's a beautiful thing! We are very excited to have alumnus at the awards this year and we think it will be a great networking opportunity for everyone.
We look forward to seeing alumni, family, friends and faculty at the 2011 Creative Communications Media Awards. Tuesday, April 26th at the Millennium Centre, 389 Main Street. Tickets will be on sale at the door or at the Mercantile at RRC's Princess Street Campus. See you all there! Cheers!
