As part of the annual sales and client service team event fiscal year kick-off, four members of the Cincinnati office were charged with creating a fun way to engage employees while still providing training. After debating different ideas, the foursome decided to create a three-minute [corporate video](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/awards/403_2179_21309.cfm) parody of Toyota Sienna’s Swagger Wagon video to be shown at the "Drive" themed meeting.

Now part of the Dachis Group, XPLANE drives results for leading corporations through what it terms *Business Design Thinking*. In keeping with this, Gray—together with XPLANE consultant James Macanufo and Sunni Brown of Bright Spot Information Design—recently produced a business book, *Gamestorming: A Playbook for Innovators, Rulebreakers, and Changemakers*, explaining how tangible artifacts such as sticky notes and index cards make group creative thinking more effective. A short video from the XPLANE creative team using these same tools to provide a sneak peek into why this book is so useful in today’s business world.  You can view it at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mrtu4MmthE](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mrtu4MmthE). Drawing largely from the visual thinking techniques that have made XPLANE famous, *Gamestorming* started out as a way to formalize a collection of visual thinking tools and grew into a handy playbook that anyone can use to think bigger, solve faster, and create more effectively. *Gamestorming* is a mindset: It fosters a new a way of thinking that is collaborative, fast-paced, and fun.  ***[Gamestorming: A Playbook for Innovators, Rulebreakers, and Changemakers](http://www.amazon.com/Gamestorming-Playbook-Innovators-Rulebreakers-Changemakers/dp/0596804172)*** is available now, and for more information, check out the Gamestorming blog at [http://gogamestorm.com](http://gogamestorm.com/). 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/bid/49647/2-Award-winning-Videos-That-Brought-XPLANE-to-Gamestorming#comments-listing) Topics: [video awards](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/topic/video-awards), [American business awards](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/topic/american-business-awards), [stevie awards](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/topic/stevie-awards), [XPLANE](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/topic/xplane) ## [Video Awards Categories in The 2011 American Business Awards](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/bid/45213/Video-Awards-Categories-in-The-2011-American-Business-Awards) Posted by [Michael Gallagher](https://blog.stevieawards.com/video-awards/author/michael-gallagher) on Thu, Oct 28, 2010 @ 04:07 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) The subject-specific [categories for business- or work-related video and film productions](http://www.stevieawards.com/pubs/awards/70_816_3660.cfm) will be the same for the [2011 ABAs](http://www.stevieawards.com/aba) as they were in 2010, but we've eliminated the function and craft categories for video and film (the categories for direction, editing, and the like).
