GMD Studios
GMD Studios was a Winter Park, Florida-based experimental media lab and venture development firm founded in 1995 by Brian Clark and Tammy Kearns. It worked in experience design, custom publishing, entertainment, transmedia storytelling, community building, and digital integration, and also provided advertising services to brands like Sega, Scholastic, and Audi. Brian Clark served as CEO and President until his death from cancer in 2015, after which the agency ceased operations.
In 1997, GMD launched ReveNews, an online publication about internet studies. In 2000 they partnered with Haxan Films to create the FOX TV show FreakyLinks. In 2002 they produced the mockumentary Nothing So Strange about the imagined assassination of Microsoft founder Bill Gates. In 2004 they helped Sega promote a football video game with the Beta 7 hoax, later named one of Advertising Age’s ten best non-TV campaigns of the decade. In 2005–2006 they worked with game designer Dave Szulborski on alternative reality campaigns for Audi and General Motors.
