As part of our ongoing partnership with BAM Entertainment, Punkyduck have launched the comedy sketch, video community website Hoot Comedy.
Hoot Comedy showcases some of the very best award winning comedians in a hilarious series of short videos available online and soon to be available on the iPhone. Initially starting with 6 series, new episodes will be added on a weekly basis and website users will be given the ability to feedback on each one.
The website functionality includes a full content management system that allows automatic upload and encoding of video for distribution both over the web and in dual formats for the iPhone to cover playback on both Wi-Fi and 3G channels.
With a concentrated PR effort and the buzz that already surrounds many of the comedy talent involved it is expected that Hoot Comedy will be a huge success. To this end, the video is stored across a fully expandable content delivery network to ensure the best quality of video is maintained at the lowest cost.

Digital production specialists BAM Entertainment have successfully launched their new group website in conjunction with Punkyduck.
Founded in 2008, the group which covers areas such as creative studio design, mobile distribution, licensing and comedy approached Punkyduck with the basic brief of creating a website that showed the breadth of their talents and made them stand out from the crowd.
The BAM Entertainment logo was revisited and enhanced to apply more directly to the market sector that BAM operates in and from here the site just seemed to grow. At its centre is the company’s showreel video, illustration better than pages of descriptions exactly what BAM Entertainment is about.
The site will continue to develop over time to showcase work from talented individuals involved such as Mike Ploog, creator of Shrek, and veteran of Marvel, Disney and Dreamworks.
In addition to the initial site development Punkyduck have been chosen to work closely with BAM on other projects, using out technical expertise on forthcoming projects such as Hoot Comedy, a web and mobile comedy clip distribution channel to be launched in the new year.

With many companies now making cutbacks due to the current economic climate, stretching budgets further has become a necessity. It has become even more important that new web designs work straight away and existing ones are tweaked to maximise their potential.
The best way of fulfilling this is by carrying out website usability testing to ensure as many customers as possible reach their goal as easily as possible. Leading usability advocate Jacob Nielsen states that ecommerce sites could
increase sales by 79% with a usability redesign
.
So if you’re a company looking to push more out of your website for less or a design agency needing to prove a redesign is right for your client then booking a session at Punkyducks’ website usability testing lab is a must.
