:: WHAT DOES ‘FWD’ STAND FOR? ::

The acronym FWD in most cases is percieved to be the abbreviated form of ‘Forward’, and in many instances that is exactly how our work ethics and general business is orientated for our clients... to move them forward.
What maybe not so well known is that over a coffee and an existing business relation between two companies, ‘Shaboomi’ and ‘Triggerfish Design’ the comment was made (all credit to Gerald Wilson) that ‘so you guys are fishing with dynamite !’
Over the chuckles that followed, that got us thinking, and it seemed a logical opportunity to integrate the talents into the one business, and in so doing it gave greater scope and expertise in the ever evolving advertising/marketing industry.
‘FWD Media’ therefore is able to provide clients with the opportunity, knowledge and resources to go ‘Fishing With Dynamite’.

:: WHAT WE OFFER ::

Importantly ‘FWD MEDIA’ has several specific areas of expertise and knowledge. While they are all extremely technical in their own right, they directly interface with each other, and this interfacing importantly continues between those crafting the ‘project’.

:: NEW AGE MEDIA AND I.T. SOLUTIONS ::

A comprehensive and ever evolving knowledge of the ‘IT’ is critical to any of the following:

• Web Development (including web hosting and building of databases)
• 3D Animation
• DVD Production
• Interactive Media Profiling
• Television Commercial Production
• Audio Creation and Compilation (undertaken by ‘FWD SONAR’ the audio division, tasked with creating and theming of sound, music and acoustics into presentations).

To do this the power of modern design based technologies and I.T. systems are harnessed and integrated into the ‘IT’ aspect of ‘FWD MEDIA’ which means a wide array of computer assisted visual effects and graphics are integrated into any design brief or project.

:: GRAPHIC DESIGN AND COMMUNICATION ARTS ::

Graphic design is quite possibly the single most important tool that will help you or your business achieve it’s goals. It may be subtle or ‘in your face’. No matter how it is ‘creatively’ projected it has the ability to draw favourable attention to your service product or business from a viewing audience.
As a ‘communication tool’, graphic design in its purest form can potentially be your single most powerful ally.

The creative elements may include:

• Conceptual Project Development
• Brand Identity
• Graphic Design
• Corporate Communications
• Media/Publication Advertising
• Packaging
• Print Management/Merchandising

:: INTEGRATION OF THE ‘IT’ & DESIGN STRATEGY ::

The ‘buying’ into a ‘I.T. or design strategy’ is a significant transition for an individual, organisation product or service... moreso when it is to be visually perceived by a larger audience and ‘brought’ by not only the presentation, but more critically brought by the mind.
A well conceived ‘I.T. or design strategy’ based solution has the ability to transcend and sell more than just a product or service... it has the potential to manufacture, develope and grow it.
Making a positive and enduring statement visually is not just the first step in the implementation of a project... it is integral in each step of the marketing journey. It is by far one of the least appreciated forms of selling.... but not by those who can lay claim to a unique and different ‘selling’ perspective.
‘FWD MEDIA’ aims to positively highlight a point of difference with clients who are looking for a professional, modern and progressive design/‘IT’ edge... giving them a unique and different ‘selling’ perspective, which willallow them to ‘ Fish With Dynamite’
