Johnson & Johnson – Project Harmony eLearning

Dave — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 19:39:41 +0000

Summary: Launch a clean, clear and easy-to-use eLearning tool for the development and production teams of Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical. The Harmony project was an educational tool within a larger, already established initiative, which had musical themed branding. So we used the analogy of the harmony of an orchestra to be associated with the hopeful development and production process of J&J bringing innovative pharmaceutical products to market. It was developed in Flash, with a welcome video, a Rovion-style guide walking the user through all 10 stages, an interactive development flow chart, a master list of deliverables & reference documents, and an acronym/definition list. The Harmony project was very well received by J&J, and at a time when entire departments were being shuttered because of the global recession, our group was experiencing growth with new projects.

CAPS – Promotional Video Edit

Dave — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 12:00:16 +0000

Summary: Create a promotional video for the Council for the Advancement of Public Schools (CAPS). This 3-5 minute video needed to illustrate all the positive public relations work that had been done in 2008 by the CAPS organization, while also engaging potential new supports to the cause of supporting our public schools. The biggest challenge with this project was the lack of video assets. Most of what was supplied were still photography and newspaper clippings. We did however have a previously edited broadcast quality commercial we made earlier in the year, and a small budget for voice-over talent. (Generously donated at a greatly reduced rate to help support the cause.) In the end, the video was very well received by the client, and we got some great feedback from them about its reception by their supporters. Everyone involved considered the project a success.

Time for Bed Game – Flash Interactive

Dave — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 23:55:11 +0000

Summary: Teach children how much sleep they need in a fun and engaging way. (What kids haven’t been preached to on this topic by parents or other adults when bed time rolls around?) Animals are a proven hook for our target age group of 5- to 10-year-old boys and girls. We used illustration, animation, funny voice talent and interactivity to engage the audience. Actionscripting was used to keep score during the games 10 question screens, with a congratulations at the end that loops the user back in for another try or sends them off for additional reading material. Overall, and very popular and successful interactive piece for KidsHealth.org. So much so that it was also featured in GD USA Magazine’s 2005 annual.
