What is AIVA?

The Academy of Interactive & Visual Arts (AIVA) is an international assembly of creative professionals across disciplines that values the evolution and expertise of traditional and interactive media.

Although under the direction of the AIVA, these award competitions feature unique qualities that set them apart as the industry’s finest.

AIVA Website Competitions

  • The w3 Awards recognize excellence in website design, digital marketing, and visual communications; they honor applicants with the best websites, advertising, video, social, podcasts, and mobile sites and apps.
  • The Communicator Awards now recognize applicants in corporate communications, public relations, and integrated marketing.
  • The Davey Awards, known as the largest and most prestigious of the creative award competitions, celebrate the achievements of small businesses with big ideas.

Spencer Bunting, President and COO of Red Shark Digital, served as a judge in the AIVA awards in 2022. His participation in the event has paved the way for the nomination of Abby as a judge for the upcoming 2023 AIVA awards.

“It is an honor to follow in Spencer’s footsteps and get accepted into the Academy of Interactive & Visual Arts. I have learned so much about what makes a website exceptional, and I am eager to put forth my expertise as a judge of prestigious website awards,” says McVeigh.

McVeigh possesses a thorough understanding of the elements and processes that contribute to the creation of award-winning projects. She is well-prepared to apply this knowledge and expertise to her role as a judge for the AIVA awards and commits to evaluating each entry with the utmost care and attention to detail.

“We expect a lot from our team members, especially those in a place of responsibility like Abby. Included in those expectations is personal and professional growth, both in the agency and in their personal lives. Abby has continued to show alignment with our core values and takes every new challenge with stride,” says Bunting. “I am proud of each of our team members; however, moments like these when a team member receives industry validation in their field give me a certain warm and fuzzy feeling. I do not say it enough to her; however, I am extremely proud of Abby for her growth with us and the continued honor of being allowed to lead her here at the agency.”
