Challenge: Cryolife needed to create a patient friendly video that highlighted and explained the Ross Procedure, a cardiac valve replacement procedure.
Solution: We worked with the CryoValve marketing team to design and create 3D animation depicting the CryoValve® SG, a human pulmonary heart valve, in the Ross Procedure.
Results: This animation was used at the 2009 Ross Procedure Summit and has been repurposed for web and educational usage.

Pawsitively the best new show celebrating
the bond between people and pets
Tampa, FL – February 16, 2009 – Whether they bark, purr, chirp or croak, our favorite animals are more than our pets; they’re a member of the family and an active part of our lives. To celebrate that human-animal bond, Tricycle Studios, a digital media content producer, specializing in high-impact entertainment and marketing, is launching Pet Life TV on the Web today.
Pet Life TV celebrates the human-animal bond by exploring lifestyles, health and wellness trends, the latest products and services, and the many ways pets can live a great life alongside the people who accompany them on their adventures.
In each webisode, our host, Kristen Levine, takes viewers on a journey to discover the irreverent, rewarding and often surprising stories that are unique to the pet life experience.
“In America today, 83% of dog owners refer to themselves as their pet’s ‘mommy’ or ‘daddy’*. I think that statistic alone shows that we’ve moved to a new level in our relationships with our animals. They are truly a part of our lives.” said Levine, a pet lifestyle expert for more than 20 years, who is currently a mom to one dog, one cat, two miniature donkeys and four goats.
“Pet Life TV is designed to honor that connection we have with our pets, and to help people find new ways to interact with and care for their furry, feathered, or scale-covered best friends.” she said.
The first nine webisodes showcase the best that the pet lifestyle has to offer, from the tiniest desk pets and most beautiful birds, to stylish pet fashions and smart food for Fido. Webisodes in the first season include:
“Trendiest Tails in Town”
Fashion and products for your dog or cat to be furry and fabulous!
“The Tweet Life”
All you need to know about your favorite-feathered friend.
“Paws-itively Healthy Pet Food”
All green treats, toys, pest control and more for your all-natural pet.
Shot and produced entirely in High Definition, Pet Life TV webisodes can be found at www.petlifetv.com. This content-rich Web site compliments each episode with short, fun and informative articles, exciting pet product showcases, fun pet facts, cool things to do for, and with, your pet, plus much more.
Pet Life TV is available in a wide variety of formats to meet the needs of viewers. With webisodes designed for any stream to any screen, Pet Life TV can deliver its media experience across multiple devices including video-on-demand, streaming Internet television and podcast subscriptions. Other media include full-length HD programs, one-minute daytime news vignettes and syndicated radio shows.
In the past 10 years, pet spending has more than doubled and is expected to hit over $50 billion by the end of the decade. Pet Life TV targets the coveted 18 - 54 demographic, however, the content and delivery platforms are diverse enough to appeal to a much wider range of people and the pets they love.
Tricycle Studios is actively seeking advertising, sponsorship and distribution partners for the Pet Life TV package.

Did you know that Americans go through 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour?! You will after playing the Tricycle Studios Eco-Warrior Game.
The Eco-Warrior Game starring the Trike Dude, is an interactive game that educates players about the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling in a fun way – the Tricycle Studios way. The stimulating scenery and surprise elements make the game entertaining, while the earth-saving facts encourage going green.
Gamers lead the Trike Dude through various landscapes while gathering recyclable items and collecting eco-friendly products to gain points. The four-button function control makes it simple enough for beginners to finish, yet the random obstacles and barriers make it challenging enough to keep even the pros engaged.
Chester, The Fat Tabby Cat.
About a year ago, a handsome and very personable young cat showed up on the steps of Tricycle Studios and declared his presence. We tried to find his people (he had been fixed and had no collar) but no one could find them. He demanded we let him in every morning and give him breakfast. He quickly started showing up for work everyday. He told Tona, our resident crazy cat lady, that his name was Chester.
With perfect attendance, everyday we are greeted by him as he makes his rounds and says hello to each of us. He then goes to one of his spots and sacks out for the rest of the day until it is time for dinner. He receives oodles of head scratches and playful gestures as we cross his path, but he is usually passed out for most of the day. We all wondered what the hell does Chester do at night? This is his story…
We are grateful that Chester, a.k.a. “C-Money”, adopted us.
