From this foundation, and with clearly aligned and complementary skills, culture and services, Media Creatures becoming a part of B.B.E will offer improved value and breadth of production abilities for clients, along with efficiencies in speed of creative and delivery.”

The opportunities for all B.B.E employees to further expand their skill-set is particularly exciting, with production and creatives getting the opportunity to get closer to the video production process and edit suite, while the Experience Design team will learn more on motion graphics. This gets the team closer to the client problems we’re solving.”

Adds Beaupeurt: “Our clients are already experiencing the benefit of having video production vertically integrated with the rest of the B.B.E team, as well as the new ideas, skills and enthusiasm the Media Creatures team brings. We’re excited for what the future holds.”
