Basics
- Initial
consultation - to determine the goals of the site, the target
audience, and a strategy to realize those goals and reach that audience.
It also
provides us an opportunity to learn about your aesthetic sensibilities,
i.e. preference of imagery, color, etc.
- Design
- Our sites are customized. They are not template-driven. As
a result, they are all unique, individual creations. We take the matter
of aesthetic quality as seriously as we do the matter of content.
Your site should be an effective and efficient vehicle for communicating
with the world at large, but it should also be an expression of how
you wish to be seen by the world. The development of the design is
an interactive process. You are welcome to participate in that process
as actively or as minimally as you choose.
- Editing
of content - we are extremely skilled at editing content, be it
biographical information, mission statements, project descriptions
or publicity material. This is a service we happily provide upon request,
rather than impose unsolicited.
- Construction
- Your site should be highly functional, which is to say it should
load quickly, be easy to read and navigate, and present all content
clearly and concisely. It should also be a presence on the web, not
merely a business card. Toward this end, attention is given to "keyword"
selection and pages are "optimized" to increase search engine
rankings and draw more people to the site.
Additional
Services
Creative
- Audio
- we offer full audio services. These include award-winning
music composition (awards include the National Endowment for the
Arts, New York Foundation for the Arts, Meet The Composer, and The
American Music Center, among others), voice-overs, digital
editing, the creation of applicable soundfiles such as MP3's,
and streaming audio. Whatever the style you wish to include
in your site, we can create original music for it. We can,
if you prefer, use pre-existing music and edit it to suit your needs.
We do all of this in-house, which affords you the luxury of hearing
what's created, giving feedback and having your feedback immediately
incorporated into the creative process, so that the end product will
sound exactly as you want it to sound.
- Photo/Video
- We offer digital editing of existing photos and video as well as
the shooting of top-quality new photos and video footage if desired,
which we will then incorporate into your site.

software Flash to achieve effects that range from the simple
movement of objects to complex transformations of images.
