Expect the Unexpected
TREMENDOUS ENTERTAINMENT WEBSITE
We agree. Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern is tremendous. At the new Tremendous Entertainment website Mr. Zimmern and his expansive palate are featured prominently on the home page and within the Now Showing section.
Television personality, Colleen Needles Steward walked away from the front of the camera as the news anchor of a CBS affiliate to start a video production company. Some might call that “gutsy.” Colleen called it “Tremendous.”
With offices in Burbank California and Eden Prairie Tremendous Entertainment travels the world to bring you the beautiful, the bizarre, the educational, the touching and the tremendous. You’ll find beautiful sunsets, ferocious beasts, crawly bugs, cultures from around the world, and gardens from down the street. Tremendous Entertainment specializes in telling extraordinary stories from around the world. Their motto is Expect The Unexpected. When you spend as much time in the real world as they do, many of the best moments are unplanned and no one captures them better than the Tremendous staff and crew.
While it’s hard to expect what you’ll find on the Tremendous Entertainment website you can expect it to be enlightening, uplifting and educational.
Over the years The Carney Group has produced unique websites for unique clientele. This website is another example of unique creative for a truly unique client.

Codeweavers Dresses Up MacWorld
iN PLATFORM HIGH HEELS
Codeweavers got a boost from The Carney Group to rank 'Top 3 Happening Booths' at MacWorld 2011. Okay, it helped that COO Jon Parshall and CEO Jeremy White donned dresses and high heels to pitch their new software, IMPERSONATOR. David Pogue of the New York Times called it “hilarious,” and one of the most creative pitches he’d seen all year.
We delivered a product name and logo that resonated with their market and gave them a great platform to tout it.
Click on the image above to see their outrageous video. Strange but wonderful.

Do we ever love this web site we helped Zeichen Press build. It doesn't look like other websites we've built. But then we've never built a site for Zeichen Press. The Zeichenites, Fran & Jen, are funny!
They're so funny that they might be from another planet!
Wait! That can't be! I've known Fran for a long time.
That doesn't prove anything! OK, they are from another planet, then.
It's the planet Hilarious. Why yes, it is in a different solar system.

Click on the image above to see a gallery of photos from FLOW 2010.
For the second year as part of FLOW Pat Carney, President of The Carney Group, set up lights and a backdrop in front of the Broadway Liquor Outlet at West Broadway and Penn Avenue to photograph anyone who walked by.
The day was sunny and bright as were the moods of the people that passed by the store.
This is just one end of a street full of art, music, good food and happy people. Check back here for photos from up and down the street. West Broadway at its best—FLOW!

Codeweaver impersonator logo: try this on for size
When Codeweaver decided to rebrand their "run Windows software on Mac" software we wanted to design a logo with legs. It's got legs, all right, and wigs, funny hats, capes, swords and bustiers.
It impersonates Windows on your Mac. What you see is what you get.
Carney Group Heads to Denver for PRPD
This year the hit of the Public Radio Program Directors Conference was this little booklet we designed to stand up at every place setting for the luncheon Public Radio International and the BBC hosted.
Celebrate the Top Of Your Head
It's a Chapeau Celebration; a Beret Blast; a Tamoshanter Tarantella; a Stetson Soiree; a Boller Ballyhoo and a Fedora Fiesta—Celebrating the Top of our Heads.
This is the time of the year when we really appreciate the covering on our heads. Not only are they a source of pride to wearers and envy to others at the bus stop. Each is a symbol of who we are and what we think.
Your hat is a visible story about you.

It's Time To Loosen Up and Lighten Up!
The declination of the sun combined with the pervasive cloud cover turns all of our summer bronzed countenances into something resembling the doughboy.
For the next few months a brisk walk around the block or around the lake will not be enough to brighten our disposition. Our mood needs to come from within. Put a smile on your face (you can do that). Make a good hearty stew or download Matt Alvar’s shiny smiley face as wallpaper for your computer and celebrate Loosen up, Lighten up day.
