Monkey Business on Channel4.com
03/07/07 14:02
Dermot was recently interviewed for a
feature on Channel 4's "4 Talent" web site. He'd like us to point
out that they stretched his photograph (his head isn't quite as
wide in real life), and that the journalist was entirely
responsible for all the hilarious, monkey-themed puns that feature
prominently in the article. The rest of the team can confirm that
Dermot seldom, if ever, makes hilarious, monkey-themed puns. See
the article here:

THE UPDATE
02/07/07 14:55
It's been quite a while since we
updated our site - sorry about that! We're in a transitional phase
at the moment while we get all our new 8-core Intel workstations up
and running. We had a good spring clean at the same time so the
site suffered a bit from lack of news. Rest assured that we've been
really busy!
So what's been happening here? Work-wise it has been a heavy 3D
couple of months. Take a look in "Our Work" to see the latest
additions. We have a new full-time editor (Andrew Keil) and we are
getting to grips with a flurry of new software packages and updates
including PhotoShop CS3 and FCPStudio 2.

Gold Run - PANI Awards 2007
30/03/07 16:04
We were honoured to be awarded the
trophy for
Best Production Company in Northern
Ireland at the PANI Awards, held on Wednesday night in the Culloden
Hotel. In addition to Best Production Company, Streetmonkey picked
up two awards for our work with BBC Northern Ireland: a gold "TV
Craft" award for our animation work in their "Local Comedy" promo
and a bronze award for our post-production work on their "Home
Grown" promo, which had already won a Shark Award for the BBC last
year.
We were also delighted that the PANI's "Grand Prix" was awarded to
Ardmore Advertising for their NI Fire and Rescue Service
commercials which, you guessed it, were produced by us. This prize
is awarded to the piece of work considered by the London-based
judges to be the best to come out of Northern Ireland in the last
two years.
In total, Streetmonkey-produced work picked up
TEN, prizes including eight gold awards, on behalf
of our clients and we'd like to congratulate and thank them all for
their continued support over the last four years. We look forward
to helping our clients to win many more awards in the future! A
complete breakdown of what we won can be seen in our
profile

display technologies clients will now be able to colour master to a
preferred format and more crucially, be able to see the display
differences, strengths and weaknesses of these formats.
