Terminals are the hardest room a screen can live in.

A terminal display competes with departure boards, announcements, luggage, and a traveler who is already late. Content built for a marketing channel does not survive that environment. Neither does an airport website designed like a brochure, when the person using it is standing in a parking garage trying to find short-term rates on a phone with one bar.

What usually goes wrong

01Content is produced for a screen, not a space

Resolution, aspect ratio, sightlines, ambient light, and dwell time change what works. Content approved on a laptop routinely fails on the wall it was made for.

02Airport websites are built for the authority, not the traveler

Parking rates, flight status, ground transportation, and terminal maps are what people actually come for. They are frequently three clicks deep behind board minutes and press releases.

03Accessibility is treated as a final check

Public-facing aviation entities are held to a standard most commercial sites are not. Retrofitting accessibility after launch costs several times what building it in would have.

04Aviation businesses look like every other aviation business

FBOs, charter operators, flight schools, and maintenance shops sell to customers who compare four websites in an afternoon. Most present themselves interchangeably.

What we build

  • Original media content for LED walls and terminal displays, produced to manufacturer specification
  • Public-facing airport and authority websites built around traveler tasks
  • Wayfinding and informational content designed for glance-length reading
  • Accessibility built to WCAG 2.1 AA from the first commit, not retrofitted
  • Websites for FBOs, charter operators, flight schools, and MRO businesses
  • Procurement-ready documentation: technical approach, qualifications, and references

Why us for this

We produced original content for approximately 7,000 square feet of LED display surface at an international public venue, engineered to Barco International specification. We were named digital content producer for Tampa International Airport's $5M Airside D immersive program, shortlisted from fourteen respondents. And we have written and submitted a full airport website redevelopment RFP response. Few studios in Florida have done one of those. Fewer have done all three.

Questions we get

Do you work as a prime or as a subconsultant?

Both. On digital content and website scope we are comfortable as prime, and we maintain a standard contract with Florida statutory terms for public entities. On larger capital programs we typically work under an architect, integrator, or program manager handling the physical build.

Are you registered as a vendor with Florida aviation authorities?

We register with the authorities and agencies we pursue work with, and we can complete vendor registration and any required certifications during the response window. Ask us where we currently stand for a specific authority and we will tell you plainly.

Can you meet accessibility requirements for a public entity?

Yes. We build to WCAG 2.1 AA and we engage an independent IAAP-certified auditor for verification when a project calls for it. Our own site is built to the same standard, which is not true of most studios that bid this work.

Who owns the content you produce?

You do, on final payment. That includes source files, project files, and any documentation needed for another vendor to maintain or extend the work later.
