This Special Issue will provide advertising agency and production industry readers with a look back on 2009, featuring SHOOT’s Agency of the Year as well as Marketer of the Year.
Here’s a rundown on what’s planned for the issue:
SHOOT Advertising Agency of the Year
SHOOT selects it pick for Ad Agency of the year based on which agency made the biggest positive impact in ’09 in terms of brand building, creative, and successfully weaving its clients into the social fabric of mainstream and pop culture. SHOOT will be announcing this year’s section within the next few weeks.
SHOOT Creative Marketer of the Year
SHOOT’s Marketer of The Year can be a client, a cause or a candidate (our top marketer in ’07 was Dove and in ’08 was Barack Obama).The fact is that great work requires a great client and we look to identify, assess and explore the client whose advertising and marketing resonated with the public in ’09
Year End Reflections and Look Ahead to 2010

Southeast Production and Post
The state of production and post in the Southeast U.S. will be spotlighted in a special feature covering notable work, filming incentives and developing infrastructure in the region.
SHOOT “Kickoff to 50th Anniversary” Feature Series
SHOOT first appeared on the publishing scene in 1960 as part of Back Stage, a weekly newspaper covering a combination of performing arts and commercial production news and features. The two distinct sections continued as one publication until mid-1990 when the section covering ad agencies, production and postproduction was spun off and became its own publication. As SHOOT embarks on its 50th year, it kicks off a series of special issues and events that will run throughout 2010, culminating with a special SHOOT 50th Anniversary Commemorative Issue, Industry Event and Anniversary Bash in December 2010. In this issue we kick off the first in a series of SHOOT 50th Anniversary articles exploring the past, present & future of various industry segments. A full slate of special issues, new products and events will be announced in December 2009.
