About Us

Tightrope Creative is a new division of Tightrope Media Systems dedicated to bringing uniformed content to Carousel. The basic principle is that every Carousel should look beautiful, without configuration. So, what we’ve done is created a series of Carousel channels that are ready to go, out of the box. Our packages are complete with a themed layout, several zone templates, and active bulletins. Enter text, upload pictures, and choose dynamic sources, all of which conform to the design, automatically.

Our philosophy is that you should be able to create bulletins without repositioning text or venture into the template editor. Carousel is, after all, built for users, not just for design professionals.

Our team consists of head designer Amber Ward, who worked with Tightrope as a freelance designer and later became a full time employee in May 2007. Her credits include a major website re-haul, promotional literature design and cover art for Tightrope documentation, and trade show design. Jeremy Cleek also joined Tightrope in May 2007, originally as a member of the support team. He produced the training video series for FrontDoor, Carousel, and Cablecast, worked on several promotional videos, and wrote and directed the Tightrope short, “The Key and the Portal”. In July 2008, he joined Amber to begin working on the company’s design offering. Having started from scratch, Amber and Jeremy, with much help from the development team, helped form what is Tightrope Creative.

It is our intention to deliver a wide variety of content – so, we will continue to create new channels, template kits, and extra options. We are always open to new ideas, and welcome your feedback. Drop us a line and let us know what you’re thinking.
