Play has also been Promax/BDA Award nominated in the category of “Best On Screen Services Promotion,� for a 30-second spot, entitled “October Barker,� on behalf of its horror web channel client, FEARnet.
Mr. Victor said, “When we opened our doors in 2005, a good deal of our work load was comprised of pure, standard definition editorial services. Along the way, we’ve significantly evolved our creative expertise, and have had the good fortune to utilize a diverse array of extremely talented producers and post production artists. Our staff members are accomplished across the areas of writing, producing, audio and sound design, and motion graphics and FX, and significantly embellish our award winning editorial, over 50% of which is now being finished in high definition.�
He adds, “For clients who want their brands recognized, we have the proven ability to deliver effective marketing solutions with one ‘look and feel,’ combining a strong voice with a dynamic style. Our clients get the consumer attention they deserve and the powerful promotion they expect. In particular, we’ve become renowned for our success in promoting content in the genre of ‘drama.’ As a result, our high profile clients are now bringing to us bigger — and even more impactful – projects, on a daily basis.â€?
