MOONLiTE Productions is in the works of creating a new Media Division aptly named "Innovations". This new division will incorporate multimedia solutions for those in need of multimedia services. These include special events filming and DVD authoring, website design, portraits and photo editing. Expansion into other multimedia services, though, is a definite possiblity. As a pilot project MOONLiTE collaborated with local dance group PRAISE TEAM by helping out with the technical direction of their latest show 100% PURE. The show was a definite success with rave reviews from the audience. In addition, a DVD for the show and a website for the dance company is in the works through MOONLiTE Productions.
Currently this new Media Division is only in its preliminary stages, but will surely be up in running the coming months. "Innovations" will be under the direction of Tim Reyes, and new members of MOONLiTE Productions might be added to incorporate the demand.
Make sure to visit the website regularly for upcoming updates.
