VIDEO PRODUCTION
City of Children
Philanthropist John Shinsky asked CMC2 to create a video presentation that would, with very few words and very powerful imagery, help to raise awareness of the orphanage he built in Matamoros, Mexico. The video garnered both praise and tears from its viewers, and helped the orphanage to raise a great deal of money. CMC2 not only created a stunning video, but we wrote the music for the program as well.
Association for Children's Mental Health (ACMH)
Over time, we have taped and edited many videos for ACMH. Some of these videos are promotional, others informational. All express the urgency parents dealing with their children's mental health issues.

WEB DESIGN
Association for Children's Mental Health (ACMH)
ACMH's previous site required a complete re-design. The client's only restrictions were to make it more cheery and easier for them to update.
We took the opportunity to involve bright colors and a hopeful attitude.
Website Redesign for the North East Regional Board of Dental Examiners, Inc. (NERB)
The North East Regional Board needed a website that served three distinct populations - the public, students and members. We designed this robust site and populated it with the previous site's updated contents.
Third City
Nationally-known sociologist, criminologist and ethnographer Dr. Carl Taylor chose CMC2 to create his blog site, Third City, on which he presents his views on pressing social issues. At once vibrant and gritty, the site is a must-visit.
Mark Bashore
Voiceover and acting talent Mark Bashore came to Cheeney Media for what he needed: a simple, clean and attractive site that would showcase samples of his body of work.
FLASH INTERACTIVE MODULES
MOPLS - Michigan Online Professional Learning System
Teachers go through a lot of training, so we were tasked with developing something that would provide information and make the process fun and engaging.
Please note that this is a test version, so not all functionality is available. You will, however, readily pick up on the purpose.
MI-Access Participation & Supported Independence Scoring Rubrics Online Learning Program
This project's goal was to provide training to Michigan's teachers as they prepared to test and score children with learning and physical disabilities. The modules provide verbal explanation and clear video instruction on the scoring rubrics and their intent.
LOGOS
Association for Children's Mental Health (ACMH)
This logo needed to express a sense of hopeful togetherness while representing varying families.
Joe D Bands
Originally, Joe D Bands just wanted something neat to put on a t-shirt. They were so pleased with the design, however, they made it their official logo.
Weird and Wonderfun TV
Created for the Weird and Wonderfun TV company, this playful logo exemplifies "weird" AND "fun!"
TurnkeyCEO
Professional and easily used for website, businesscard and shirt designs, the TurnkeyCEO logo exemplifies attractive business endeavors.
ASK Brochure
ASK chose CMC2 to create a new marketing direction for them that would emphasize ASK's groundbreaking managed services package. The first step of this marketing campaign, a print brochure, posed the question, "What if you could build the perfect IT employee," demonstrating with tongue-in-cheek visuals that it can be as easy as building a model from a kit.
You can also view the back of the brochure.
Zelinski Builders, Inc. Ad
Days before it was due to go to press, friends of CMC2 Zelinski Builders came to us with a special request: create an ad for a builder's show booklet that would be both visually stunning and get their message out. Mission accomplished.
The Role of the RIO DVD Jacket
The Role of the RIO, a Research Integrity Officer Training DVD, was a large project funded by a grant. We created a DVD jacket cover that reflected the professional, serious nature of the DVD's contents, while maintaining the same "look and feel" of the DVD's colorful menu system.
