Tribal DDB Worldwide on an FWA roll

fwa-logo1Tribal DDB Worldwide has had a fantastic run with the leading global forum for web creativity, the FWA. April saw Site of the Day awards for both Tribal Paris and Tribal Amsterdam while in May Tribal Lisbon and Tribal London were celebrated. Tribal London then went on to receive the exemplary Site of the Month award for May with the GTI Project, making it the second SOTM award for Tribal Worldwide.

According to Rob Ford from the FWA Network, ‘There was some very tough competition for SOTM but The GTI Project site was seen as the freshest and most original.’ As a monthly winner, the site is also entered into the FWA Site of the Year 2009, to be judged at the end of the year by an industry recognised panel.

Here’s a look at the winning Europe work from the last two months:

15 April: FWA Site of the Day Tribal Paris El Invincible Chlorophyllo take control of Chlorophyllo, the most powerful luchador in the history of Mexican cinema! An attractive adventure awaits.

20 April: FWA Site of the Day Tribal AmsterdamCinema 21:9 a truly cinematic experience for the world’s first cinematic proportion TV. Watch the film, click the hotspots, and explore the site.

4 May: FWA Site of the day for Tribal LisbonVolkswagen Tiguan The Volkswagen Tiguan ‘moving city’ campaign that reflects the adaptable nature of the Tiguan to an ever changing environment

SOTM May: Tribal London – The GTI Project – A giant Scalextric racetrack where GTI engineers race their new car in miniature, no less fine tuned and expertly engineered than its full size counterpart.

FWA was named the number 1 web award in the world, beating the likes of YouTube and the Webbys, in the Chicago Tribune’s first World Wide Web Awards Award 2007, in which they “consider the scores of sites vying to become to Internet excellence what Oscar is to film excellence.”

FWA is the most visited website award program in the history of the internet, with over 50 million visits as of April 2009.

Thanks FWA, we look forward to sharing future projects with you.
