Metropolis Creative’s US Pavement Services, Inc. Website Redesign for Spotlight Communications Selected as a 2010 MITX Interactive Awards Finalist

US Pavement Website Redesign for Spotlight Communications Recognized for Outstanding Achievement

Boston, MA (October 21, 2010) — Metropolis Creative today announced that its US Pavement website redesign for Spotlight Communications has been selected as a finalist in the Professional Services category for the 15th Annual MITX Interactive Awards. Held annually by the Massachusetts Innovation & Technology Exchange, the MITX Awards recognize excellence in the creation of web innovations designed, produced or developed in New England.

Since 1996 the MITX Awards has grown to the largest and most prestigious awards competition in the country for technology innovations and celebrates the best creative and technological accomplishments emerging from New England.

“The MITX Awards encompass all things creative and innovative in interactive marketing and technology, and this year saw an increasingly impressive group of forward-thinkers” said MITX president Kiki Mills. “We are proud to be the voice for the region’s digital community and we are thrilled to recognize some of the world’s most inspiring marketing and creative experts through the Awards.”

Metropolis worked closely with Spotlight Communications to deliver a cutting edge redesign of the US Pavement Services, Inc. website. “One of the biggest challenges was to showcase the many different services that US Pavement offers without overcrowding the website with information.”, said Michael Flint, president of Metropolis Creative. “The solution we came up with was to organize this content using some of the newest interactive web technologies that have the ability show and hide information. This enables the user to easily navigate to the information they want with fewer clicks.”

Metropolis Creative will be recognized with the other finalists in the category of Professional Services at a gala awards ceremony traditionally attended by over 1,000 of the region’s top interactive marketing and technology professionals. Winners will be announced at the ceremony in the Boston Marriott Copley Place on Thursday, November 18th at 6pm. Tickets can be purchased at www.mitxawards.org/interactive.

The 2010 MITX Awards are sponsored by: Bridgeline Digital, PricewaterhouseCoopers, DLA Piper, Pod Digital Design, Atom Group, Reebok, Technology Review, Boston.com, massAV, and Metropolis Creative.
