Milici Valenti Ng Pack Inc. won a best-of-show in the broadcast advertising category for its Aloha Airlines television campaign, which includes the commercial dubbed "Check-in."





Oscar night for
Hawaii’s ad industry

The winners


The 25th annual Hawaii Advertising Federation Pele Awards celebration last night saw two top advertising agencies winning more than half a dozen awards each.

Milici Valenti Ng Pack Inc. won eight Pele Awards including a best-of-show in the broadcast advertising category for its Aloha Airlines television campaign.

The six Peles won by Laird Christianson Harris Advertising Inc. were almost gravy as two principals were singled out for special recognition.

Hendrix Miyasaki Shin Advertising Inc. maintained its multiple-win legacy with four Pele Awards.

Longtime powerhouse Starr Seigle Advertising does not appear on the list of awards presented at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Tapa Ballroom.

In keeping with recent tradition there was not one best of show award but three, in different categories.

There are always at least two, said Barbara Scott, chairwoman of the American Advertising Federation District 13, better known as the HAF.

"I bring in three design and three advertising judges, so there's always at least a design and advertising best-of-show. But a lot of times the advertising judges think the difference between the broadcast and print is too different and they don't want to give just one," she said.

Matsumoto & Clapperton Advertising's "Dust" ad for C S Wo won best-of-show for print, and a spa brochure for the Four Seasons Resort won Agape' Design, of Maui, the best-of-show award for design.

The Pele winners from Hawaii advance to the national ADDY Award competition, to be judged in May.
