PatrickOrtman, Inc. is expanding, and we’re better than ever! Where film meets web design, we’re there. We recently merged the film production team from Genius Monkeys with the web design team from Empty Street Productions to form a team of creative professionals that can do it all.
Founded in 2006 by Patrick Ortman, Genius Monkeys is a Los Angeles based HD and 4K video production company that creates television commercials, web video, and tradeshow industrials. Known for our impactful storytelling and use of cutting-edge technology, Genius Monkeys was one of the first digital production companies to use the RED One camera system, and we have been featured along with Patrick Ortman in TubeFilter.tv, USA Today, and the Toronto Star.
PatrickOrtman, Inc. would also like to welcome the web design team from Empty Street Productions to the fold. Empty Street was one of the world’s first web design companies and is known for creating innovative corporate websites for clients like Kimberly-Clark, Universal Pictures, and BellSouth.
Founder and CEO, Patrick Ortman, says:
Twelve months ago, video wasn’t really something our web design clients wanted to talk about. But things change. Technology evolves. Now, almost all of our web design clients are extremely interested in video for their websites, and some of them are pursuing web and broadcast TV spots with us as well. It’s smart for companies to embrace video as part of their marketing plans. With this change in attitude, I felt that it was time to finally bring these world-class video and web design teams together under one roof. We’re excited about the enhanced services we are now able to offer our clients.
So, what do all these changes mean for current or new clients?
Full-service solutions, where film meets web design. Work is continuing as usual, and our clients will be dealing with the same creative teams as before. But we now have the ability to craft even more dynamic and cost-effective solutions for our clients. Simply put, things are getting even better.
