So what makes our services better you ask?
EXPERIENCE!
A good educational background is certainly valuable and I have that too, having majored in Broadcasting/Speech Communications with an emphasis on the psychology of filmmaking.
The heart of a great media message, whether it’s in print, on the web, audio or in video, is the delivery. Creating a truly memorable image is the best way to develop a clear and concise message and it is a technique not developed quickly.
Who am I and why should you consider
using our services?
My name is Michael DeVere and my over 30 years of hands on experience in the communications industry has granted me a truly insightful approach to how your message should best be presented!
- My first experience builder was a job in local television, working as a cameraman/editor then as a Director for Newscasts and commercials. I put in 8 years working with some of the finest professionals in the south before pulling up stakes and moving to NYC where over a 20 year period my varied experiences could fill several volumes.
- I served as Director of Photography on commercials, Fashion Shows, Television Pilots and Infomercials. I have done Graphic Design and Computer Graphics for major TV Networks, Ad Agencies and Internet Companies.
- I was involved with major commercial productions for Estee Lauder, Revlon, Gap, Sanofi, Phizer, Burlington Coat Factory, Sanyo, Mitsibishi, TheraFlu, Colgate, Diflucan, Dunkin Donuts and many others.
- I have created graphics for broadcast, print, film and video for many diverse projects over the years including HBO, The History Channel, CBS, NBC, ABC, ESPN, Nickelodeon, MTV, VH1, Comedy Central, National Geographic, Bruce Springsteen, MSG, the NY Rangers, Universal Records and many, many others.
- My graphics work and assistant editing on Sesame Street was honored with a Daytime Emmy Award in 1998.
- Much of my background came under the tutelage of a preeminent commercial Director in NYC, serving as his assistant director/cameraman for many years.
- As stage manager for a midtown Manhattan sound stage I was in charge of the productions of numerous Infomercials for products ranging from Makeup and Skin Care to Plastic Surgery to Car Wax.
- As the Non-Linear Computer Editing explosion began to reshape the video industry in the early 1990’s I was involved from the very beginning with the new technology. I embraced the Avid Editing system and quickly became quite adept on the system.
- Being able to relate to new technology and keeping my eye on the true importance of the message has given me a tremendous advantage over many of my peers who let the technology overwhelm them.
- My graphics skill and experience gave me a tremendous outlet and I have worked continuously doing Computer Graphics throughout my entire career.
Five years ago my wife and I decided to relocate to Southern California where we have started our own marketing and new media company specifically geared for the entrepreneur and small business owners who have big ideas but maybe not big budgets.
Having such an extensive and varied career history has given me a truly insightful approach when helping our customers develop their message and in some cases their actual product. These are the talents I am now able to put to use for you. Let me put my talent and experience to work for you today!
