Website Design
Let's face it: people do judge a book by its cover. Your website may indeed provide that vital first impression of your business, so it's got to be striking.

When it comes to the Internet, the expression "if you build it, they will come" is dead wrong. A search engine placement strategy is critical to drive traffic to your site. Compelling content, dazzling visuals, functional reliability and navigational ease are essential to keep visitors coming back.

Whether you need to design a site from scratch, or revamp an existing one, we have the creative vision, the expert skill and the state-of-the-art tools to do all of the above and much more. Combine that with our expert technical support, and you're guaranteed a website that's nothing short of extraordinary.

Television Production
Need a TV program, commercial, infomercial or promotional video? We can help you devise an attention-grabbing concept, then bring it to life, using slick, state-of-the-art shooting and editing, enhanced by optional special effects, animations and even features enabling the viewer to interact with the presentation.

Graphic Design
Using the latest technological tools, we create the ideal images to attractively convey your corporate identity.

Designing great graphics requires a mastery of the visual language. Visuals speak to the senses the way words speak to the brain -- only it's more intuitive than cerebral…

In spoken language, dialects vary by geographic location and one dialect may not be effective, or even understood, in another's setting. We realize that visual language is no different; that in communications, the medium is the location, so getting the imagery "dialect" right is the secret to amazing graphics. In other words, what works visually for a website, for example, doesn't necessarily work for television or print. That's why our innovative and talented graphic artists are not medium-specific. Inspired by the spirit of convergence, they're experts at designing visual elements for all types of media. This sets them apart from most graphic designers in the industry.

Our approach to graphic design isn't about embellishment -- an illustration here, a photo there, simply to break the visual monotony of the text. Starting from a blank page, we devise a full-blown artistic concept that's integral, not incidental. Its design elements have a certain flow; all working together to emphasize the informational focal points of the page and guiding the visitor to them intuitively.

Once you approve the idea, you don't have to worry that we'll hand it off to someone else to handle. We do the design and implementation in-house, all the way to project completion.

Animation and 3-D Modeling
Whether on TV, a website, an interactive CD-ROM or DVD, motion makes graphics truly come alive. Our animators are true artists, their creative passion matched only by their technical skill. They have a profound understanding of the craft, and know how to give graphics fluid, realistic movement.

We use animation subtly and with restraint; too much moving text and images are confusing and hard to read. We know just how much animation to apply, and where, in order to enhance, not hinder, the message.

We can also produce visual demonstrations by taking illustrated objects or characters or real-life objects and transforming them into 3-dimensional animations.

Photography
From the simplest product photo to full-scale fashion shoots, we get the picture. Working with Montreal's leading professional photographers, fashion stylists, makeup artists and set designers, location scouts, we coordinate all aspects of photo acquisition.

Great product photography entails more than merely lining up the shot and clicking the shutter. It's about subtly creating and selling an image;
to showcase the product in the context of the lifestyle that accompanies it, a lifestyle that's desirable, and ideally, irresistible to the targeted demographic. When it's done right, it's magical.

To create that magic, we conceptualize the perfect shot and then hire just the right photographer for the project, cast the appropriate model when required, and pay keen attention to detail, skillfully working the setting and lighting to craft the perfect mood and effect.
