We provide media development and production services including Internet & web site development; digital video production; graphic design; and media education.

We get to know our clients. We'll learn your vision, goals, and resources, and provide the solutions that are best for you.

We empower our clients. We'll pass on as much of our experience as possible, and give you as much control over the finished product as you'd like.

We make it last. Rather than chasing the latest trends, we advocate solid and simple technologies that are forward-thinking and backwards-compatible.

We use semantic and valid (X)HTML and CSS that adheres to web standards. This means our sites are flexible, accessible, and optimized for search engines. In a word: we build gorgeous web sites.

Starting from scratch? We'll build your custom web site, or install a blog or content management system to help you create your online community. Your site can be based on your existing branding or you can use our graphic design services.

Need an upgrade? We'll perform an audit of your current site for user experience, accessibility and search engine optimization, or enhance your site with a database, ecommerce, or streaming media.

Need something specific? We'll consult with you so you can maintain your own site, or provide specific services like domain name registration and email account setup.

We can produce your music video, a documentary for your cause, a promotional video for your product or organization, an educational video for your classroom, or bring your narrative script to life.

We put our training and experience in production, aesthetics and film theory to work for you. We frame our subjects with an eye for composition, and an understanding of what is needed to make your story come to life in the editing room.

We prefer a modern, "guerrilla-style" approach to video production, involving broadcast-quality digital video cameras, lightweight equipment, and small crews. This allows us to navigate and capture events, scenes and settings from within -- picking up "authentic" moments, or staging scenes within natural settings.

We edit with Final Cut Pro and output to a variety of formats including MPEG, DV and DVD. Videos can be distributed physically or streamed from your web site.

Our designs originate from you. Our process begins with a conversation about who you are, the aesthetic style you like, your goals and target audience.

We design logos, graphics, and branding concepts to convey your identity, which becomes the cornerstone for your web site, videos, business cards, promotional cards, and letterhead.

We achieve elegance and longevity in design by understanding the implicit meanings and biases of these media.

Our media education services are focused on The Media Spot, a public service organization we established in 2001 to provide media education for K-12 schools, camps, clubs, and other learning environments.
