Boston Red Sox Pitcher Taps mediaBOOM

admin — Thu, 01 Mar 2007 20:56:55 +0000

mediaBOOM has been hired by 38 Studios, a game development studio located in Maynard, MA, to develop its corporate website. Founded by Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling, 38 Studios is made up of “world-class creative talent, currently working to produce a new IP that will shatter the boundaries of conventional gaming and media,” according to company officials.
With its launch, expected later this month, the site will showcase mediaBOOM%27s use of 3-D animation. The technology will bring 38′s studio mascot, Munch, to life. Visitors should recognize Munch’s connection to the Boston Red Sox… right off the bat. He’s a green monster. Of course the Green Monster, often known simply as The Monster or The Wall, is the nickname of the 37-foot (and two inch) left field wall at Boston’s Fenway Park, home to the Red Sox baseball team.
The web address, www.38studios.com will eventually be 38′s new home. mediaBOOM is excited to work with a company with a similar focus—one that’s driven by creative ideas… and the mediaBOOM team has every intention of knocking this one right out of the park.
