Update: Due to the number of confirmed attendees, a second bus has been added for this event, and even that one is filling up fast. If you’re interested in attending this event, be sure to get your RSVP in ASAP.
While you’ve likely already heard about this, entries are now being accepted for the 2012 Idaho Advertising Federation’s Rockie Awards.
Submissions are due by Friday, February 3rd and 5:00 p.m. Or, as always, if you’re feeling particularly generous you can wait until the 10th and pay the late registration fee.

The Boise Advertising Federation’s final event for 2011 will be a screening of the film PressPausePlay.
About the film:
The digital revolution of the last decade has unleashed creativity and talent of people in an unprecedented way, unleashing unlimited creative opportunities.
But does democratized culture mean better art, film, music and literature or is true talent instead flooded and drowned in the vast digital ocean of mass culture? Is it cultural democracy or mediocrity?
This is the question addressed by PressPausePlay, a documentary film containing interviews with some of the world’s most influential creators of the digital era.
The screening is scheduled from 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. at the Linen Building in downtown Boise. Cost is $15 for members and $20 for non-members. Attendees are encouraged to bring a canned food item to be donated to the Idaho Foodbank.
