Fulscrn had the pleasure of joining other top Canadian companies producing cross-media projects, in a panel called The Canuck Showcase: Creative Kudos at Merging Media 2011. Evan Jones from Stitch Media, Sandy Fleischer (my old boss!) from Dare, Mike Ferguson from Ayogo, David Gratton from Work-At-Play, and myself were joined by moderator extraordinaire Lynda Brown Ganzert for an hour of showing off some work and sharing some tricks of the trade.

Of course, I stuck around for the rest of the two-day conference, which turned out to absolutely fabulous. Loved seeing some old acquaintances and meeting some great new friends and business contacts from around the world. Dinner with Brian Seth Hurst, Seth Shapiro, Evan Jones, and Scott Dobson was particularly awesome.

Conference highlights included “Down the Rabbit Hole” with Lance Weiler, “Breaking News on Multiple Screens” with Amjad Atallah, Al Jazeera’s Bureau Chief for the Americas, interviewed by the CBC’s Theresa Lalonde, and, of course, the “NFB Showcase” featuring my long-time collaborators Loc Dao, Michael Simons and Paul Shoebridge (The Goggles).
