Shining Star CLE 2020 is a one-of-a-kind vocal competition in which talented high schoolers across Northeast Ohio compete against one another in hopes of winning a scholarship for college. The event is more than a competition, it’s a fundraiser that benefits two wonderful organizations: Menorah Park & Montefiore.
Due to Covid-19, holding the event at Playhouse Square, like previous years, was out of the question. That’s where we come in…
We teamed up to create a 90 minute livestream of this extraordinary event. It’s an honor to create a Broadway-like experience for these soon to be Broadway stars.
Shout out to Lime Lights Entertainment for helping to turn our studio into a stage!
And huge shout out to the show’s producer, Connor Bogart. Without him, none of this would be possible.

Who would have thought that the biggest and best KISS Tribute band in the world was located right here in Northeast Ohio? Mr. Speed has been at it for over 26 years and let us tell you, they are the real deal.
A couple of us had the chance to produce a modern replica of KISS’s hit single ‘I Was Made For Loving You’ — and if you didn’t know any better, you’d swear it was the real thing. “You wanted the best, you got the best!” The return of Mr. Speed! ⚡️
The modern age is hyper-digital, now more than ever. As an Agency that specializes in digital content, we needed an upgrade to make our upload and downloading process ultra-efficient.
We decided to have @everstream install fiber at the studio to take our current upload (30mb/s) and download (400mb/s) speed to 950 megabits per second for both our downloads and uploads.
We knew this upgrade would improve our workflow, but after spinning these blazing speeds for a week, we can’t imagine how we existed without Fiber in the past. GodSPEED everyone.
Live concerts haven't been possible for the majority of 2020 but that doesn't mean that the passion people have for seeing some of the best musicians in the world perform has vanished. We've partnered with The Cleveland Orchestra to produce captivating performances at Severance Hall to bring the music from the stage to your screen!
Share Healthcare brings folks together from all across America to voluntarily share medical expenses. When you have a medical expense, they advocate on your behalf to negotiate with providers and reprice your bills.
Healthcare Sharing Ministries aren’t common knowledge to most people. How they operate is even more foreign. Through animated videos, we were able to effectively communicate and educate on what Share Healthcare does, what makes them unique, and most importantly: how they can help save you money.
This video is a tribute to our insurmountable addiction to coffee, and the machine that gives us our fix. This is not a paid review – we just really dig this thing.
Meet the Philips 3200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine with LatteGo. We refer to it simply as the Coffee Machine... and we love it.
Like most creatives, we’re heavily fueled by coffee of all kinds. At the break of dawn, after lunch, late at night… It doesn’t matter when or where, as long as we have an excuse to pour a cup.

As a Creative Agency, it’s imperative that we produce great work but that’s only half the battle. Just as critical is the speed at which we can produce it. Generating timely content is a must in a hyper digital age where trends come and go like dust in the wind.
After months of research, we got in touch with iXsystems, Inc. After they investigated all the best use cases that would fit us; ultimately, they hooked us up with the TrueNAS M40-HA all flash storage array.
To answer the most important question: Was it worth it, did we find what we needed? That’s a big yes. iXsystems is a company we’re going to be working with for a very long time.

It’s time to get out of bed and go prepare yourself for another day of work. Then it hits you: You don’t have to leave your house. Your office is only 10 steps away.
So you pour some coffee and slip into a comfy pair of pants; if you even bother changing out of your pajamas at all. This is the workforce of today but it still feels somewhat alien to us. Leaving the comfort of your home for the office has been the norm for as long as we can remember. But what is the history of working from home? What does the future hold in store for the WFH model?
Companies such as Microsoft, Amazon and Google have since allowed workers to telecommute into 2021. We see no sign of this slowing down given the state of the world. A recent study highlights that up to two-thirds of managers who offer telecommuting flexibility report that employees who work from home are actually more productive overall. And by 2028, it is estimated around 73% of all departments will have remote workers.
