Our greatest strength is creative conceptualization, turning program ideas into coherent, targeted communications which present a message effectively and persuasively to sponsors, clients and, ultimately, to the chosen audience. The production team at Push Cart Media has an established track record of producing effective media communications products that can be distributed via the full range of technologies – including the web, traditional media outlets, CD-ROM, and DVD. Despite the well-known aphorism by Marshall McLuhan, it is not the medium, it is the message. And we can help present your message in whatever medium you choose.
With years of production experience in video and multimedia, we have the know-how to execute projects with realistic budgets and, sometimes, unrealistic deadlines.
