Trade Show Executive Wins Four More Editorial and Design Awards; Announces Other News

TSE STAFF

Torrance, CA, July 19 – Trade Show Executive magazine was awarded four APEX Awards from Communication Concepts last week. The annual competition honors editorial and design excellence, and this year drew a record 5,462 entries.   Trade Show Executive magazine won awards in the categories of  “Most Improved Magazine,”  “How-To Writing,” “Feature Series” and the “APEX 2004 Grand Award for Design & Illustration.”

“I am very proud of my staff for not only receiving a record number of awards but also for achieving distinction in the most important editorial and design categories,” says  Darlene Gudea, Publisher & Editor. “Winning these four awards conveys that TSE’s editorial staff is adept at communicating in a variety of formats, from roundtables to how-to articles.  It also shows that  our design team has brought a new level of creativity to the covers of the magazine, the feature articles and the Event Calendar, which is typically a mundane section in most magazines.”

Here  is the breakdown of awards:

(1) The APEX 2004 Grand Award for Magazine Design & Illustration went to Mark Feldman and Joan Hamby  for Trade Show Executive magazine. Here’s what the judges said, “Everything speaks to ease of readability — the spreads, paper choice, clean typography, readable heads and decks, and appealing photos. They all tie together into a first-rate publication.”

(2) “Most Improved Magazine” to  Mark Feldman and Darlene Gudea;

(3) “How To” article by  Lisa Sinicki on “How to Build a Better Brand —  Ten Tips for Creating a Great Impression.”

(4) “Feature Series”:  Darlene Gudea and Joan Mather for the TSE Roundtables, “Lessons from CEOs – the Highs, the Lows and What’s Next;”  “Global Warming –  Countries where International Exhibitions are Hot;” and “State of the Unions.”
