LOS ANGELES Independent Ground Zero won both the Sweepstakes and Best Book prizes at the 39th annual Los Angeles Ad Club’s Belding Awards last night at the Annex at Hollywood and Highland.

Decisive in victory in both categories were 30-second spots, produced for The History Channel [Adweek, June 14, 2004], in which contemporary subjects are seen at famous historical locations and soon surrounded by black-and-white documentary footage. The WW II Normandy-invasion spot of the “Know where you stand” campaign, contrasting a French woman and child to the hallowed ground, won the Sweepstakes.
