Photo Libraries, Heat Waves & the Secrets of the Universe

As the saying goes, “Time flies when you’re having fun,” and that’s definitely true for us! When thinking about how to recap last year, I was surprised to realize when different projects took place. For instance, Masterack provided us with an opportunity to shoot a library of new photography for a website redesign that was […]

MBM Creates Holiday Videos!

Considering our offices are in Atlanta, GA and near San Francisco, CA, dreaming about a white Christmas isn’t very practical.

Ah, Curses!

Let’s be honest – as a sports fan, it’s an unbelievable feeling when YOUR favorite team, or a team from your state, wins a title and/or championship and “goes to the show”. As a fan, you believe that you had something to do with it. There was so much excitement here in Atlanta when the […]

Atlanta Ballet’s New Vision

When we got the call from our friends at ajc.com about possibly shooting a promotional video for the Atlanta Ballet, I was immediately excited. I knew the subject matter would lend itself to amazing footage, so then it would just be a matter of finding the best story to tell. In 2016, Gennadi Nedvigin left […]

The DR is in the House

Life in the Digital Revolution It is the medium that shapes and controls the scale and form of human association and action. The “message” of any medium or technology is the change of scale or pace or pattern that it introduces into human affairs. – Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media (1964)   In my lifetime there […]

Bring your dog to work day

This is a cute dog

After waiting for far too long, I decided to finally bring my dog into work today. His name is Bingo and he’s a flat-coated retriever mix who is very sweet and gentle. He already is spending time with each of the three people in today; he’s a people person, what can I say! We were […]
