ITMStudios launches new imagery for Florida firm

Imaginethis Media Studios was retained by Florida based Montenero to develop design & renderings for one of their residential concrete projects. The goal was to show potential purchasers how one style of their homes can work both inside and out in a variety of settings. The first exterior was designed as more mid western and the second was designed with more tropical appeal. The interiors boast all major amenities that a conventional residence would such as a beautiful Kitchen and Dining Area, open concept Living Area and upper loft Family Room. Imaginethis provided interior and exterior renderings as well as interactive panoramas to showcase numerous details.

Montenero is a Florida-based company with patented “machine form” technology used by developers and builders to create five-sided monolithic steel-reinforced concrete structures capable of withstanding 220 MPH category 5 hurricane winds. The technology has been used to build affordable homes, high-end condominium developments, elementary schools, mid-priced homes and high-security prisons in weather-risk markets in the Southeastern US and Caribbean.

SNEAK PEEK

Well we have been hard at work here at the studio. One of the current projects we have been working on is the rendering and animation for a new Timber Frame Addition. More images will follow once completed. The design of the project was completed by Duane Addy, Dipl. Arch. Tech. Managing Director / Partner with Imaginethis Media Studios. Before going more into the digital media & advertising end of things, Duane was an experienced building designer that completed numerous projects throughout North America. Today clients still look to Duane to complete custom projects for them and this one along with the previous Monterey Model Home are samples of the design work that can be created.

Imaginethis Media Studios Inc. specializes in interactive media and has been an award winning producer of Virtual Marketing, Business Marketing, Online Marketing and Video Production for the past decade.

Monterey 2010 Model Home Interactive Interface

Imaginethis Media Studios Inc. has developed a complete interactive interface to showcase the Monterey 2010 Model Home. The interface is a new product from ITMStudios that combines a variety of features into one main interface. Viewers can explore the animated walk-through, interact with individual panoramas, and discover the exquisite details found within the still images. The interface also offers a description of the design and provides a contact area to find out more on the model or to place an order for the plans.

“Imaginethis believes in pushing the limits in both quality as well as interaction.” says Duane Addy, Managing Director / Partner. “Our goal is to simplify the ways in which builders can market new developments. By combining numerous features into one seamless interface the buyer gains the educational tools to make better informed decisions when looking to purchase their next home. Each model home in turn becomes a mini-website marketing the core features yet works seamlessly within the developers main web site”

The interface is completely customizable in both design as well as product integration. Builders can choose a variety of products to incorporate such as I-Selects, 360 Walk arounds, and video tours to name just a few and can also have custom graphics developed.

Monterey 2010 Model Home Animation Launches

The Imaginethis Media Studios – Monterey 2010 model home interior animated showcase is now complete. The 1:28 sec video takes you on a brief journey throughout the main living areas within the 6,158 sq. ft. custom designed home. With candles burning, and the fire set the home is a marketing piece designed to entice the toughest of buyers. Exquisite details have been painstakingly modeled to provide the viewer with a realistic view of the finished home. In the next few days Imaginethis Media Studios Inc. will be launching a full interactive interface that showcases the home further.

Imaginethis has been working on some pretty amazing projects. Majority of these projects are custom homes above the 5000 sq.ft. range and offer amazing architecture. In the coming weeks ITMStudios will be showcasing these upper scale homes in the same manner as the Monterey.

“With homes such as the Monterey our goal was not just to produce animations that walk and turn all while on one single path but to provide excitement. Today’s technology is better than that. Our goal is to produce mini movies that hopefully help to portray passion and emotion. Feelings that propel buyers to want more.” says Duane Addy, Managing Director / Partner and the main designer of the Monetery. “A lot of marketing companies deliver single animations meaning they walk on one path looking side to side and go end to end without a break. After a few seconds viewers grow tired of this format only because the excitement has gone. It’s quite simple actually. If you are asking someone to make the single biggest purchase in their life they should be excited about doing it.”

ITMSTUDIOS launches Aspen Hills

Imaginethis Media Studios Inc. was selected by Drumbo Developments to create a new marketing brand for their latest project – Aspen Hills. The media development package consisted of ITMSTUDIOS teaming with Bayview Design to design and develop all 11 model homes, design a new branding and identity package including a new logo, print collateral, custom renderings and a complete online content management web site.

“The client was looking for that complete solution as they grew tired of having to deal with a variety of companies to integrate one project.” says Duane Addy, Managing Director / Partner for Imaginethis. “What Imaginethis was able to provide for them was a one stop solution from concept to design to overall market development and integration.” Over the years Imaginethis has been able to help numerous builders reduce the unnecessary overages that can occur within a project when multiple companies become involved. The Imaginethis way eliminates that downtime by utilizing all of its internal divisions.

“We wish Drumbo Developments the very best in their development project and look forward to working with them again on their next project”

Media company, The Author Experience, builds a better book.

Entertainment-based marketing and social media is fast deconstructing the sluggish business of traditional book publishing and The Author Experience, a subsidiary of Imaginethis Media Studios, creatively fills the void.

The Author Experience brings more emotional and visual appeal to the book buying audience while serving in a more co-cooperative role with the author. The Canadian-based media company can work exponentially faster than conventional publishers getting a book on the shelf in a fraction of the time.

“Publishers traditionally pay authors a 10-12% royalty with a strict ‘authors sell, publishers print’ mandate,” says Duane Addy, a senior partner with Imaginethis Media Studios and co-creator of The Author Experience.

“If I take the time to write a book, am expected to market and manage my own public relations campaign, travel for book tours at my own expense, why would I give up all the control and 90% of  profits to a publishing house?” says Leslie Bradford, writer of The Author Experience first endeavor, The Garden That Grew Her. Bradford already has three more book projects lined up for the firm.

The Author Experience allows the author to decide which components of the publishing process they wish to sub-contract, focusing on cover design, website construction, search engine optimization, producing film-style book trailers and aligning writers with distribution channels, editors and printers. An in-house advertising agency looks after the important aspects of building a solid marketing image.

With the power of the Internet to sling-shot information around the world, popularity of viral marketing, and demands of entertainment starved consumers, a media company makes the perfect partner for authors who demand quicker response time, more control over their projects and a bigger slice of the profits.

The book trailer features music from up and coming music artist Jana Fisher. More information can be found at Jana’s Official Web Site.

The young girl featured in the book trailer is Katelyn – a young  up and coming child actor provided by Star Finders Model & Talent Scouting Services.

New “Lifestyle” images from Imaginethis.

Well it has been some time since we have posted here at ITMSBLOG.com.  The studio has been quite busy developing a variety of interactive and rendered projects. One such project was a series of interior renderings with a lifestyle flare. Our digital imagery can be used for a variety of sales tools with “Lifestyle Renderings” being designed to give more of that magazine look and feel. These renderings were originally created for a client who was looking for the ultimate in total realism. Imaginethis Media Studios Inc. has for the past decade developed work for some of the world’s most amazing clients and projects and with this project it allowed us to expand our philosophy on camera angle selection and lighting and how it can make the image come alive.

Builder Experience will also be carrying this style of rendering imagery. Anyone in search of realistic lifestyle images can contact us at info@itmstudios.com or info@builderexperience.com
