Park Cast Network Appoints Four Member Advisory Board

Posted by bluepony On January - 26 - 2012

A big congratulations to our very own, Jeff Dougherty, who was named Content Design Consultant on Park Cast Network’s Advisory Board. It is a true honor to have such an expert on our team! Read on to hear the full story...

Digital Out of Home network Park Cast, with screens in public and private parking facilities in the top DMA in the United States, is announcing the formation of an Advisory Board comprised of experts from across the DOOH space. “Park Cast believes that the industry as a whole is not working closely enough together and benefitting from everyone’s experience and knowledge. We have put together the advisory board to enable Park Cast to move in a better direction than would be possible only by ourselves. Each of the advisory board members are highly successful and capable of providing solid insight into market trends and new opportunities covering different angles of our industry,” said Joe Matriss, Park Cast’s Managing Director. The focus of the Advisory Board is divided into four roles: Business Consultant, Media Consultant, Content Design Consultant, and Content Management Consultant.

For the role of Business Consultant, Park Cast has tapped Catenate Enterprises CEO Joseph Scott. Mr. Scott has over 20 years experience as a business owner and CEO with expertise in a variety of industries having built and sold several companies. The most recent being one in the digital signage arena where he conceived, developed and sold a digital network deployed in golf course pro shops. “Having built companies from the ground up and working directly with investors I understand the magnitude of developing and implementing solid business plan. I look forward to working with the Park Cast team to manage the business plan as a ‘living document’ and playing a role in making Park Cast Network successful.” said Mr. Scott.

Responsible for a large portion of recent developments in the 3D Projection and Out of Home space, Pearl Media President Joshua Cohen has signed on to the Advisory Board as the Media Consultant. Having a knack for creating buzz in the media landscape, Mr. Cohen brings ample experience working with major brands and advertisers. “It’s exciting to be involved with Park Cast as they continue to grow and I look forward to helping to steer their media efforts in the most positive direction possible,” said Mr. Cohen.

Jeff Dougherty is part of the team at Blue Pony, a content creation company specializing in digital signage, and a company which Park Cast has utilized regularly for help with content. He will become the Content Design Consultant for the new Advisory Board. “Content is becoming evermore crucial to having a successful network that attracts top tier advertisers, and I am happy to help to guide Park Cast towards this end,” said Mr. Dougherty.

Finally, for the role of Content Management Consultant, Park Cast has brought in the well-known Jimmy Dun. Dun has actively engaged in digital signage industry activities and associations in various capacities for a decade and has worked with nearly everyone in the digital signage and media industry in his role at Dynasign. “In a diversifying network such as Park Cast, it is crucial to apply the best practices in delivering premium content channels with quality and relevancy to attract targeted audiences, and I look forward to contribute my expertise to make sure that everything runs smoothly in this regard,” said Mr. Dun.

Park Cast Network operates digital out of home video advertising networks in public parking facilities in the Central Business Districts of major cities (DMA) within the United States. With HD displays strategically positioned at touch points, Park Cast Network delivers its message to an on-the-go captive audience at the beginning and end of their daily routines.

Blue Pony created custom videos for Starmount, a retail software solutions company. Pictured here is Starmount’s booth at NRF 2012 last week; our content was displayed on three monitors in the booth.

You may notice that Starmount is not the only company on the show floor with digital signage, monitors, or interactive touch-screens. Nearly everyone is engaging their audience through digital or interactive media.

The most important thing is not how big or how many monitors are in our booth but what you are saying that matters. Content is key. A strong message can easily be heard when it is presented in the right way.

Customers want to be engaged and are willing to listen to a worthy message. Our job is take your message and turn it into captivating and exciting content that evokes your customers to respond.

UpgradeNow.Org TV Commercial

Posted by bluepony On December - 13 - 2011

Drumroll please! Blue Pony designed an animated TV commercial for UpgradeNow.Org, the first project Blue Pony has created for television broadcasting. One of Blue Pony’s designers used text-driven animation to create clean, simple, and energetic commercials. Here you will find three 10-second commercials promoting healthier habits by UpgradeNow.Org.

Animation is such a dynamic tool in advertising because it can build a brand. This is an example of text-driven animation which really means we integrated text, logos or pictures, audio, and content. The key is making sure all of those components communicate the exact message you want your customers to hear.

Check out a few of our other animation-based projects: Biomet Comic, Remembering 9/11, and Starmount Systems!

Cache Creek Casino Promos

Posted by bluepony On November - 22 - 2011

Blue Pony has created several digitally enhanced promotions and advertisements for the Cache Creek Casino in northern California, near the Sacramento and the bay area.

Each ad clearly displayed the week’s or month’s special winnings and prizes and was put on display around the casino floor. The digital signage caught guest’s attention and attracted them to the games and tables that offered the week’s largest prize offerings. Overall, the content was a fun, appropriate, and effective way to communicate to the casino’s guests the directed message.

Customized Interface for The Super Dentist

Posted by bluepony On November - 20 - 2011

The Super Dentists, located in San Diego County, California came to Blue Pony with a large request. They desired to create a digital interface that would incorporate their entire practice and initiatives. The Super Dentists is a pediatric dentist and orthodontist, serving both children and adult. They have created a denistry practice that is a child’s dreamland. Walking into the office takes you into one of two worlds: a fairy dreamland and utopian outerspace. The office has video games, a dress-up station, games, videos for guests. The Super Dentist is also visable inthe social media world via Twitter, Facebook, and through their own blog.

In order to tie all of these features together, Blue Pony built a customized interface with four main sections. The largest section plays The Super Denists videos from YouTube and other video coverage. Another section features reviews written by their patients and guests. A third section loops The Super Dentists’ three social media sites: Facebook posts and comments, Twitter activity, and their personal blog posts. Lastly, there is a section of the interface that showcases before and after pictures of patients smiles to make the interface more personal.
The content was displayed on the two main screens in their lobby to meet and greet guests, and provide digital content for patients as they wait for their appointments.

The overall goal for the project was to increase patients’ awareness of all the mediums of social media The Super Dentist is involved in, to promote their fun and playful environment, and inform patients of events and ways The Super Dentist is involved in their community. The interface was meant to communicate and educate exactly who the The Super Dentist is and how they are working to serve their patients in the possible way.

There was a lot going on in the project, and Blue Pony worked hard to find the best ways to blend the many functions into one, seamless interface. The client was more than pleased with the end product. They were impressed by the way Blue Pony was able to incorporate all of their wants and ideas into a project that compliments their brand and personality.

Biomet Sports Medicine Sales Comic

Posted by bluepony On November - 3 - 2011

The Biomet Sports Medicine Sales Team gathered this year in celebration of their 20 years of excellent service, as well as to begin planning for 2012. This year they contacted Blue Pony to find a new way to pump up the sales team…with a comic-themed video. Blue Pony illustrated the entire comic from start to finish. We created personalized “heros” and “villains” for the comic dual between competing product brands.
The comic was a dream come true for the sales manager, who surprised the staff with the themed, week-long sales meeting.

Jean George Steakhouse

Posted by bluepony On October - 18 - 2011

Blue Pony designed an advertisement for the Aria Casino in Las Vegas featuring the Jean George Steakhouse. Aria came to Blue Pony desiring to create an advertisement for the restaurant that would increase brand recognition and brand recall. The casino had implemented other digital signage advertisements for the restaurant, but the message was not being communicated to its viewers. Blue Pony’s goal was to incorporate the Jean George logo in as many ways throughout the advertisement in hopes of informing guests of the steakhouse and promoting its unique atmosphere. Aria wanted to provide viewers with a snapshot of what a fine dining experience would look like at the Jean George Steakhouse within the video, because they felt that their previous efforts did not showcase the restaurant’s originality.

The digital signage was displayed among various screens within the casino, on end-caps, and throughout the hotel. The advertisement began running on the casino’s digital signage network in May 2011.

Aria had previously had an advertisement for the restaurant, but they were not achieving their desired results; guests did not recognize the restaurant’s brand, nor did they know about the unique dining experience it offered. Blue Pony was faced with the challenge of incorporating the Jean George Steakhouse logo, a bull’s nose, into the video in a repetitive, recognizable way without it appearing overdone.

The advertisement also needed to fit into the environment of the casino and hotel, and be able to communicate with many audiences due to the amount of locations this digital signage would be viewed.

To overcome the challenges we faced with this particular project, the Blue Pony design team was intentional with every detail, transition, and special effect to reflect the Jean George Steakhouse logo and brand. The images and scenes within the video communicated more than a restaurant’s design, it encompassed the temperature, mood, and environment of a dining experience. This allowed the video to be transcendent of the room it was viewed within; it attracted and communicated with more than one crowd or one audience.

Remembering 9/11

Posted by bluepony On October - 5 - 2011

As a graphic designer, I jump at the chance to work on projects that hold special meaning. So when I was assigned to work on an internal project honoring the 10th anniversary of 9/11, I was excited, but I also felt some trepidation. 9/11 is my generation’s JFK assassination. We all remember where we were. I was in my college dorm room with my two roommates, watching in shocked silence as horrible events unfolded on a tiny, 13 inch television screen. How would it make me feel to revisit the tragedy of that day?

As I began to wade through mountains of research, YouTube videos of the towers collapsing, helicopter footage shot by the NYPD, audio recordings of phone calls from trapped and frightened victims, and obituaries of the almost 3,000 people who were killed, I began to better understand the enormity of what had been lost that day. A death toll is just a number. It’s not a mother, uncle, best friend, or sister.

In the end, we decided to remember individuals, ordinary people who died on 9/11. I happened across an online newsletter organized by Arnie Korotkin. If it has to do with 9/11, he’s probably in the know. I sent him an email asking if the people on his mailing list might be interested in sharing memories and photos about the person they had lost. He thought they might be, and he forwarded my request to the thousands of contacts on his list. I started getting emails and phone calls from 9/11 family members. They’re a tight knit and determined group, these 9/11 families. They’ve lost so much, but many of them have turned tragedy into hope through scholarship funds or foundations to help raise money for causes they care deeply about.

The people that contacted me believe hope can flourish even among the ruins of devastation. Ever since that fateful day, they’ve been a force for change in our nation and world. Their stories have saddened me and inspired me at the same time. I hope others who watch our video also feel called to action.

It’s the least we can do to remember the 2,996 people who were killed ten years ago.

Is Dayparting for You?

Posted by bluepony On August - 18 - 2011
 
A look at some dayparting within media signage.

Should dayparting be a part of your digital signage deployment?

Dayparting is something that television and radio have been practicing for years, so why doesn’t digital signage always take the extra time to daypart as they do? What is dayparting? Dayparting is the act of scheduling specific ads to play at a specific time, to target a specific audience. For example, a coffee shop ad is much more appropriate in the morning whereas a Happy Hour ad would be much more effective later in the day. We have been encouraging our Digital Signage clients to use dayparting if it is relevant for their deployment and Media Signage gives us the tools to do so. The Media Signage software enables you to create complex campaigns, do advanced campaign scheduling, dayparting, and has many other great features. To learn more about dayparting or the Media Signage Software please contact Blue Pony.

3D Mapping Experience

Posted by bluepony On July - 21 - 2011

3D mapping is a growing technology used in a variety of applications. It involves projecting an animation or image onto a 3D surface. Blue Pony, in collaboration with A&V Company and Sweetwater Sound, completed a project last month involving this exciting technology for Premier Healthcare’s annual conference. The project took 8 weeks to complete with many hours of brainstorming, recording, animating, and programming. All team members took part in a weekly conference call to discuss ideas and present the status of their progress.

Initial meetings involved discussing the message, style, and visual ideas with Premier in order to meet their objective for the video. Sweetwater Sound wrote original song lyrics and instrumentation, and produced the record. A&V Company was the production company in charge of stage set-up and equipment installation and selection. Blue Pony coordinated all efforts and designed the visuals. This included conceptual development, illustrated storyboards, 2D and 3D animation techniques and video assembly. The completed video was then projected and mapped onto 3 dimensional stage walls. Blue Pony thoroughly enjoyed working on this project and having a team member on-site to see the video come to life at the conference. To learn more about this project and 3D projection mapping contact one of our team members today.

5.1 Surround Sound

Posted by bluepony On February - 11 - 2011

Blue Pony’s latest project called for a very cool 5.1 surround sound audio track. The request for surround sound doesn’t come in very often so it was fun to put this project together. The piece replicated a Formula 1 race; creating an audience experience with simulated sights and sounds alternating perspectives between being the driver and sitting in the fourth row of the stands. Gathering sounds, studying race footage, and dreaming of being a race car driver were all crucial components to this project. It was exciting to hear it played back in my own home theater but it was exhilarating to hear it through a SERIOUS system live at our client’s big event. Oh, forgot to mention, we built some really sweet visuals to bring the experience to life too!
