We’ve had success operating as a “virtual in-house creative team” for our clients, who contract with us because of our ability to provide expertise in design & writing and programming. From our wide circle of talented specialists, we build a team tailored to your specific needs, for a fraction of what you are mostly likely paying now.

History
Landon Elmore relocated to San Francisco in January 1989 from his native homeland of North Carolina, two years after graduating from the School of Design at North Carolina State University (with honors). Once on the west coast, he quickly found a job at a design firm in North Beach. Landon settled into a career designing and producing all manner of printed materials; the old fashion way - with sharp exacto blades, some sheets of typesetting and rubylith and some hot wax.Then, just as the 1989 earthquake shook San Francisco to the core, it began to feel the tremors of yet another kind of shake-up; the PC revolution. Soon, there were Macs in the design studio. "Mac" users unknowingly put the typesetters out of one business, while bolstering their transformation into another - the "Service Bureau". Now, designers produced wonderful print pieces by giving the printer a computer disc rather than a "mechanical". This was when "Multimedia Gulch" in SF, as it came to be called, really began to take off. Companies were now designing CDROM's and games, and advances in video and audio and 3D modeling just kept getting better.
Then...enter the Internet. In 1996, studios plunged headfirst into the development of the web; a craze that had everyone incredibly excited. HTML was the undisputed king, and new delivery methods for clients' messages were being invented daily. Since the beginning, Landon Elmore has ridden the marvelous wave of 21st century technology, and gained immeasurable experience along the way.
In 2002, Landon returned to his roots in Raleigh, NC after 14 years in the Bay Area, along with wife Kirsten and baby girl, Leila Johanna. Landon continues to work with West Coast clients, while working with new NC clients in and around Raleigh and the Research Triangle Park.
