CONTEST PROMOS
Contests & sweepstakes should be fun and exciting for participants, and they should provide high visibility and strong brand association for their sponsors. These spots are always a great opportunity to get creative with high-energy motion graphics. Here are just a few of the contest promos I've enjoyed producing.
FOX23 Food Stars Face Off Sweepstakes
This promotion was honored with a 2024 FOXiE Award by the FOX Affiliate Marketing team! I have to give a huge shoutout to the FOX23 News anchors and meteorologists who contributed to this promotion by spending some time in the kitchen to record entertaining cooking videos. You can click here to see all of their videos. You'll just need to scroll down the page a little bit.

Tulsa Oilers Football Suite with Ron Giveaway
This was a fun promotion, giving a group of viewers the chance to hang out with FOX23 Morning Anchor Ron Terrell at a local sporting event. FOX23 did similar promotions with Tulsa Oilers Hockey and FC Tulsa. The template I created for the first one allowed me to easily adapt it to the others by making simple changes to the titles, colors, logos, and video.

Oklahoma Ford Kickoff & Win Sweepstakes
This is a promotion FOX23 ran for several years with Oklahoma Ford Dealers. The promos went through a few different versions over the years. This was the most recent look.

Todd Pitts modeled and animated the Kickoff & Win logo.

Extracted Smartwatch Giveaway
Although this promotion didn't receive a FOXiE Award like the Food Stars promotion above, it was highlighted at the 2025 FOX Affiliate Marketing Raod Show as being a good example of using the prizes FOX occasionally offers to promote its prime time programming.
