A graduate of University of Tennessee, Bo Ferger’s diverse career spans the graphic design, technological and entertainment industries.  While holding a BFA in graphic design, the combination of these three disciplines has culminated in a multi-faceted wealth of experience.  Ferger began his career as a founding partner in Light Visions, an Atlanta-based, 3D graphics house.  His technical and design capabilities won the confidence of such clients as CNN, United Artists, and General Cinemas.  In search of a new challenge, Ferger sought to utilize his talents on a grander scale by relocating to Burbank, California where he would further broadened his skills beyond design and expand his knowledge and experience in digital technology.

In 1992, he joined Animated f/x where he helped to design and implement a fully digital animation production environment on behalf of Warner Bros. Animation.  His management of that process resulted in a metropolitan video and data network, connecting several Warner facilities.  Ferger’s responsibilities included the establishment and supervision of the production operations for Warner Bros. Imaging Technology (which later became Warner Digital) from 1994-97.  In bringing new technologies to Warner Bros., it required Ferger to leverage his design background by managing various artists and engineers carrying out animation and special effects production for a variety of commercials, television shows and feature films.  Following his entrepreneurial spirit, he partnered in the formation of eMaiMai in 1999, an Internet-based, auction site for the Hong Kong and Asian markets.  Ferger managed the engineering team responsible for the design and implementation of the corporate website and its server technologies as the Chief Technical Officer (CTO).

Most recently, Ferger served as President of Toonacious Family Entertainment, an animation production company he co-founded in Burbank, California in 2001.  In addition to serving many commercial clients, Toonacious specialized in the creation, development and production of animated intellectual property for direct-to-DVD and theatrical releases.  As President, Ferger managed Business affairs, strategic partnerships and technology while providing design and animation services for such “blue chip” clients as the Walt Disney Company, Sony, Hasbro and Mattel.  Having met those challenges that he left home in search of, some twenty years ago, Tennessee’s native son has returned home bringing with him a breadth of design and technological experience.  He and his wife, Kelley are dedicated to providing the absolute best in graphic and technological design to meet your creative, promotional, commercial and/or advertising needs.

 

Kelley Ferger’s 20 year career as a graphic design and conceptual artist includes a wide range of projects for both print and web design.  Also a graduate of the University of Tennessee with a BFA specializing in Graphic Design, Kelly is considered to be the “creative brain” that compliments her husband, Bo’s technological side.  Her style has a range that encompasses both the boldness of a professional corporate image to the more nostalgic look and feel reminiscent of a personal scrapbook.  Kelley’s work can be found in the creative development of corporate identities; company logos, business cards, stationary, websites, newsletters, invitations, print ads and re-touched photographs and portraits just to name a few.  Her ingenuity and keen design sensibility have made her a highly sought after source for creative imaging and brand awareness in the Burbank community.

Upon relocating to California with her husband and two children, Kelley’s priority as a wife and mother never diminished her desire to be creative.  In maintaining devotion to both her family and to her community, Kelley utilized her graphic design experience to help non-profit organizations such as the California Community Foundation where she was responsible for the design and layout of their corporate newsletter.  She also provided creative design services for Emmanuel Church in Burbank, California creating and establishing a design look and feel that was consistent with the church’s style and message.  Her work can be seen in the Emmanuel brochures, posters, weekly programs, church ads, as well as the church’s website, for which Bo created the backend, technical implementation and programming.

As a result of her creative approach and appealing design sense, Kelley gained the interest of Young Life in Burbank, the local chapter of an international youth ministry.  She was hired to design promotional materials for the ministry as well as the invitations for their annual banquet fundraiser.  Shortly thereafter Kelley began receiving numerous inquiries from organizations and individuals alike, requesting her extensive knowledge and services in developing and implementing graphic design solutions.  In her spare time, Kelley enjoys re-touching photos (old & new) to create personal family heritage albums.  Another of her favorite pastimes includes designing one-of-a-kind digital scrapbooks for special events such as weddings, graduations and baby showers, among other memorable moments.  For the past five years, she has been able to successfully balance the responsibilities of being a mother and wife with that of being a highly sought after graphic designer and corporate image consultant.  One of the key ways that Kelley has accomplished this feat is by partnering with her husband, Bo to create the perfect marriage of technology and graphic design that offers clients a turn-key solution for a variety of creative imaging needs.
