The Chan Brothers in conjunction with New Zealand Tourism Board, have launched a joint promotion to stimulate travellers to think of New Zealand as their next holiday destination.

As part of the awareness campaign, Firestarter created an iPhone game. Participants could enter the promotion by playing the game and collecting wool from shawn sheep. Earning from the wool sold bought accessories for participants to dress-up the sheep. Completing the game gave participants a chance to upload their accessorised sheep to Facebook where fans and the client could judge the best work.

Designed exclusively for small business owners, it’s perfect for restaurant operators, professional services, trainers and IT companies who need a simple yet professional image for their firm.

Firestarter have over five years experience building sites for corporations like salesforce.com, SAP, and American Express.

Firestarter in conjunction with agency One9ninety, created for Screen Singapore 2011, a Facebook application to support their event programme.
The Facebook application, titled Make Me a Movie Star was designed increase awareness and audience participation prior to the event in June 2011. Facebook users interact with the application by superimposing a photo of themselves into one of the many posters of movies being screened at the event.
Once users superimpose their photo, they can upload their movie star persona to a gallery. Every valid entry to the gallery gives the participant a chance to win tickets to special movie screenings.

To make the app sticky, users can also post their new personas to their personal pages, or share them via twitter.
See how you look playing a part in Mr Poppers Penguins. Competition is open until mid June.

Reaching a larger readership has never been easier with a digital magazine. An ipad and/or iphone edition delivers a richer, more impactful experience to your readers. In today’s busy world where people spend less time at home and read in snippets on lunch breaks or during their commute, they can receive their subscription wherever they are.

Consider a digital edition to complement your print version, reach new markets that were previously unprofitable, or as part of a strategy to phase out print altogether.

Producing a digital magazine provides an opportunity to innovate your subscription model, like offering some sections at a premium price. You can also improve your advertising model, enabling you to reap the rewards of more flexible rates and attractive side benefits for your advertisers.

If you are planning to launch a new title, speak to us about our production capability. We currently produce content for a number of titles and sell their ad space to media.

Choose from four unique packages, designed to suit every client’s budget and personal needs.

Here’s how it works

1. You supply us with indesign files of your magazine.
2. We manipulate and optimise the files for ipad and/or iphone.
3. You provide us with interactive elements such as sound clips, video files, links etc., or our content people can create them for you.
4. We build and publish an application to the iTunes store, where it can be purchased by the general public.

You may be unfamiliar with some of the concepts of digital magazine creation, so we recommend that you watch our short video or download a pdf to view details of our process, prices and packages.
