Averra Media Corporation was formed in 1998 to provide solutions to these challenges. Our core business is incorporating businesses’ subject matter into interactive digital content and computer programs designed to help people communicate ideas, strengthen business, build rewarding relationships, and prosper. We create the underlying imagery and computer code that breathes life into your subject matter using a wide range of technologies that bring together sound, text, images, and video in ways that form rich interactive experiences and enhance the way people access information. Averra can lend a hand to help get your products or services noticed while enlightening people in unique, innovative ways. We’ll work with you to develop a scalable plan that examines your present and future needs, then provide you with a menu of options that will help you decide and plan an approach that will work best for your organization.

Averra Media was founded by people who have substantial expertise in conveying complex concepts, functions, and procedures across a wide variety of business and technical fields. We use a variety of state-of-the-art technologies to create realistic, dynamic 3D graphics and animation. The 3D content can be created from scratch, or we can integrate your existing two-and-three-dimensional digital models, raw data, photos, and other material to create visualizations that effectively convey your message. Because digital 3D imagery is easily re-purposed, the same content can be used in different mediums, such as CD-ROM, DVD, film, print, television broadcast, videotape, or the World Wide Web. Applications include advertising, kiosks, sales
presentations, training and e-learning, public relations, corporate
communications, and courtroom visualization.
Averra can build, implement, and maintain simulations in a variety of formats including CD-ROM, DVD, and the Web. Specific types of simulations we build include:
We build the initial simulation, then provide
the authoring software, training, and technical support so your
organization can revise as needed, or we can update and maintain
simulations for you.
That's why Averra Media has developed a Content Management Tool to help streamline the process, allowing you to create and maintain Web sites without having to learn HTML, Javascript, or other programming languages and Web programming techniques. This takes the pain out of maintaining Web sites and frees up valuable time. This tool is especially useful for people who must frequently update Web site content, publish newsletters, and/or manage multiple Web sites quickly and efficiently. Averra's Content Management Tool is designed to enhance the productivity of people creating Web content by providing an easy-to-use, visually oriented system that automates your site's look and feel using a variety of attractive, pre-designed layout schemes that we can also customize to your needs.
Averra can provide you with everything from custom design that focuses on one aspect of your Web site to a complete hosted package.
Your content packaged into mobile devices, such as custom websites, iPads or iPhones, provides knowledge as people need it—anywhere, any time. The benefits are numerous and include:
Applications we develop have the capability to launch other applications or documents, so you can access other information or databases that may already exist in a wide variety of digital formats. You can also mix document formats such as Acrobat, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, online Web pages, databases, digital video, and more. Averra can work with your subject matter experts,
or put you in touch with qualified subject matter experts.
For example, people can type in a question, then be guided through a series of procedures such as those used for troubleshooting, maintenance, or safety—even contact other personnel or vendors automatically when needed. This kind of 'Just-in-time' learning allows people to be actively involved in the learning process. Interactivity reinforces the learning content and helps people to retain knowledge. These applications may also be configured for use as reference tools. In this way, people aren't forced to go through a structured course to find a quick answer to a specific question or to troubleshoot a problem. The benefits are numerous. Familiarize new employees with new or standard procedures or unfamiliar processes. Enable people to study potentially dangerous topics without risk as they can see the results of their actions and become skilled at proper 'best practice' workplace methods and procedures while learning how to work safely at their job. This approach reduces downtime, increases productivity, prevents worker injury, and saves you money. Testing and documenting training for large numbers of people can be accomplished efficiently and cost-effectively. Applications we build can have the ability to automatically track the progress of individuals or groups and automatically provide documentation to satisfy industry and/or regulatory requirements such as ISO 9001:2000, OSHA, JCAHO, HIPPA, HAZCOM, RCRA, and others. These applications can also have the capability to launch other computer programs or computer-based documents, so people can access information in a wide variety of formats from a central source. Distribution options are numerous and include Macintosh and Windows computers, handheld computers, the Internet, local and wide-area networks, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, mobile apps, or any combination of these. We can also integrate multiple languages in one application so your software can be localized for various countries. We'll work with you to create a scalable, customized
application that fits your needs, then deliver ready-to-use applications
together with the authoring software we used so you can update
it yourself—or we can maintain it for you as well as provide
ongoing technical support.
Typical applications include airport terminals, bank and hotel lobbies, museums, point-of-purchase displays, retail establishments, supermarkets, shopping malls, trade shows, waiting rooms, zoological parks, and more. Averra designs and develops kiosk software for use with standard kiosk hardware, optional internet connectivity, interaction with other hardware, and portable computers for trade shows or client presentations. The interactive kiosk applications we build can provide information in a variety of engaging formats. Besides simply presenting information you can ask questions, conduct surveys, deliver helpful information and directions, collect information from user input, and respond with feedback. We can develop just the underlying code for kiosk programs, select and install complete kiosk systems, or provide support at any stage of the process. For turnkey solutions, Averra works with several major kiosk hardware manufacturers and qualified technicians to ensure high quality at the right price within your budget. For trade shows or presentations, we can also arrange "plug and play" kiosk rentals complete with software pre-installed to your specifications. We'll even handle the complete logistics for you by having the equipment delivered, set up, tested, and then packed up after the show. In addition to kiosks, we also can incorporate your content with leading edge, attention grabbing technologies such as electroluminescent signage and display materials.
While one of our specialties is producing 3D imagery for computer display, we also create innovative printed 3D packaging and displays for trade shows, retail environments, and exhibits using state-of-the-art technologies. Averra works closely with several commercial printers, die makers, digital service bureaus, and disc duplicators to provide a full spectrum of services for advertising, technical, retail, and consumer mass markets.
In addition, Averra can help create printed collateral materials such as:
We can handle your entire printing project, from graphic design and proofs, to mailing, or anything in between. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
Back-end programming generally refers to the underlying code behind the graphics and "look and feel" content, such as user interfaces used with Web sites and software programs. Averra provides professional back-end programming support for businesses as well as Web site and interactive media developers. We specialize in cross-platform software development for both Apple Macintosh and Microsoft Windows platforms. So what does this mean for you? If you need complete Web sites or disc-based software that provide
rich interactive content, e-commerce applications, databases,
streaming audio and video, web portals, Web site and multimedia
application templates that you can easily update yourself, and
more—then you've come to the right place.
