Our Journey with The Other Games: Crafting Unique Experiences for PeacockDesigning and building games is one of the most enjoyable and creatively rewarding aspects of what we do. Every project is an opportunity to innovate, but working on The Other Games for Peacock was a truly exciting experience. The process was a collaborative effort that pushed the boundaries of what’s possible in today's entertainment realities. Our team was tasked with fabricating and developing games that not only entertained but also met the high-stakes demands of competitive television. The challenge was exhilarating—how do you take big-picture ideas and bring those competitive experiences to reality that translate well both on-screen and in person?

We worked closely with Hartbeat Productions to understand their vision, and together we fine-tuned a suite of games that were not just fun but also tailored to the unique needs of the show and client Procter & Gamble. From developing game mechanics that would resonate with a broad audience to designing set pieces that were as visually striking as they were functional, every detail was meticulously crafted.
One of the most fulfilling parts of this project was seeing our designs come to life. There’s a particular kind of magic in watching something you’ve rendered on a monitor transform into a fully realized game, especially when you know it will be enjoyed by so many. We learned a lot from the experience, particularly the importance of flexibility and innovation under tight constrictions. Ultimately, The Other Games was a testament to what can be achieved when creativity, collaboration, and technical skill come together. It was a privilege to be part of such a dynamic project, and we can’t wait to see what new challenges the future holds! We’re excited to share that our shop and fabrication practices have officially been certified as a green business through Glendale’s Green Business Certification Program! This achievement is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility in every aspect of our work.
The certification process was spearheaded by our very own Aryn Bomer, whose dedication and hard work were instrumental in ensuring that we met all the stringent requirements to become a certified green facility in the state of California. Aryn meticulously evaluated our practices, made necessary adjustments, and guided us through the entire certification process, which was no small feat! Of course, this accomplishment wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible flexibility and support from Kevin Mincin, who helped implement the changes needed to meet the certification standards. Thanks to their combined efforts, we successfully completed the process in July, and we couldn’t be more proud to hold this certification. Being a green business means we’re doing our part to minimize our environmental footprint, from the materials we use to the waste we reduce and recycle. It’s a reflection of our ongoing commitment to creating a better, more sustainable world—one project at a time. We’re thrilled to be recognized for our efforts, and we look forward to continuing to innovate and improve our practices to meet the highest environmental standards. Thank you for supporting us on this journey, and here’s to a greener future! |
