What sets us apart
If you hadn't already noticed, a quick Google will prove that there are hundreds of thousands of full-service creative agencies out there. We're not one of them. We don't offer print, design, advertising, or video production services (although we'll happily point you towards the right people). If you call one of those agencies, they'll likely tell you that they "do" websites, and show you lots of great examples from their interactive portfolio. Then, they'll take your money, hammer out some Photoshop comps, and pass all the hard techie bits on to someone like us. Which is fine, because that is what we do.
Our typical project
Remember that "full-service" agency? It's a good thing they don't do everything in house, or we'd have about half as much work to do. Often, a creative shop sends over their wireframes, mockups, and (if we're really lucky) functional specifications, and we take over from there. We work seamlessly with the creative directors, designers, and copywriters, and the end client never knows the difference.
If you are not an agency, you could also just hire us directly. It can often be an even better approach. We've got super-low overhead from not having staff to support the services you aren't using. We don't have an army of designers, directors, animators, illustrators, etc (although we have their phone numbers on speed-dial). We can work with your in-house design, marketing, or technical teams' designs & specifications and focus on what we do best — developing the absolute best web sites and applications your money can buy.
