Artgig - Swimming With the Dolphins

Mon, Oct. 5 2009

Little known fact – when I was a kid growing up in the 70’s, I was a huge Miami Dolphins fan. This is when I was living Albany and there was no clear hometown team (Bills? I don’t think so) so I naturally went with Csonka and Griese all the way down in Miami.

Shortly after moving to Westchester my dad took me (in full Dolphins uniform) to see their hated rivals, the New York Jets, at Shea. I think I blocked the abuse from that day out of mind. All I can say is it’s a good thing I was wearing a helmet.

I may not root for the Dolphins anymore but it’s with special pleasure that I announce two games we recently wrapped for the brand new Miami Dolphins website, produced by our friends over at Crossborders in Manhattan:

Field Goal Frenzy - challenges players to kick field goals through the moving goal posts as they race the clock. There are five levels of play and the goal posts get faster with each round. Hot streaks are awarded with bonus points.

Red Zone Photo Hunt – users pick a category and race the clock, comparing two similar photos in an attempt to identify the differences. There are five rounds per game, and the clock gets faster as the user advances. Players can request a hint in a pinch.

With these games and the launch of Winter’s Tail, I think we’ve met our September marine mammal quota.

Now let’s go play some football!Play Field Goal Frenzy

Artgig Launches Turtle Pond Website Portal

Tue, Sep. 29 2009

When we first sat down with Craig Hatkoff and ESI Design at the Turtle Pond Tribeca offices over a year ago to discuss the Turtle Pond family of websites, miza.com, owenandmzee.com, knute.com and now winterstail.com, one thing became abundantly clear – they needed a central web location to link the family together and a general hub to broadcast news, provide resources and sell their products.

And, in keeping with Craig’s dynamic personality, it needed to be flexible so Turtle Pond could update news and events on the fly in a number of categories.

And it had to be modular and ready to expand, as the ever-growing Turtle Pond family continues to branch out in new areas of story and product development.

We think we’ve accomplished all of the above in the new Turtle Pond Website Portal.

The Classroom is awaiting some final adjustments before we open it up but the News categories are live and the Store is open for business.
