My Paper on Funny Garbage

Funny Garbage has been in the forefront of web design, interactive entertainment and broadcast production for over 10 years. Their slogan is “making the web worth watching” and they do just that. On their web sit you can view some before and after screen shots of this company’s work. Funny Garbage designs with a lot of bright colors and exciting imagery. Everything they have done is very pleasing to the eye.
John Carlin and Peter Girardi started the company in 1996; each of who had extensive experience in the world of art, design and media in general. Funny Garbage now has a reputation as one of the most creative and innovative interactive design companies in the world. Funny Garbage has been one of the preeminent producers of interactive and tradition media; creating large scale web sites, advanced user interfaces and con ten t that consumers want. Has produced successful projects for some of the most important companies and consumer brands in the world. Including Fox, PBS. NASCAR, Bloomberg, Intel, Disney, Comcast, Viacom, Nike, Lego. Funny Garbage is dedicated to innovative Research and Development, particularly in the area of advanced user interfaces that help people find and store what they want on screen. Music To Go is an example of original software that Funny Garbage spun out into a separate company, which builds music download stores and promotional marketing campaigns for hundreds of radio stations across America.
This company has a great website that includes a very entertaining and thought provoking blog, which is very important in the field of graphic design. Currently, Funny Garbage remains in the forefront of both web development and broadcast production. They also design a lot of online projects, including a prestigious web site and analytic database for New York City's Department of Cultural Affairs through The Alliance for the Arts, and are producing content for a number of TV networks including Disney, Cartoon Network and MTV. At the same time our development of original intellectual property continues to grow with successful rounds of investment in Music to Go, the digital strategy company for terrestrial radio we co-founded, and new projects with Maria Bartiromo and L’il Jon.
When the interest in innovative web sites waned around 2001, FG turned to traditional media production such as the show "Crank Yankers" for Comedy Central as well as maintaining its web production through work for Bloomberg and Viacom; notably developing sites and applications for Noggin and The N, which became leaders in the new wave of web design.
Funny Garbage has some of the most fun designs out on the market today, no wonder why they are so successful. This company is an inspiration to young graphic designers entering into the work place. They put a fun spin on all of there work and this is very evident even if you visit their website for only a few minutes.
