It looks like the four horsemen have run through, bringing a whole lot of fear with them. London burns, stock markets crash, new diseases, floods, famine, extremism…the list goes on. It makes you want to close up your shop, move to the woods and write manifestos. Let us offer a little something from the past: Keep calm and carry on.
Well…it’s out of the closet now.
Back in February of 2009, Tugboat Media Inc. offically took Kinky Logic Inc. under tow, assuming operational control and ownership of the company. Kinky Logic Inc. principal Pam Zenkawich and creative director Justin Hnatiuk remain with the company; Pam acting as Tugboat’s newest senior project producer and Justin leading the creative team as Tugboat’s new creative director.
“This is all part of Tugboat 3.0,” says Steve Gallagher, Captain and CEO. “The addition of Kinky Logic’s approach and creative horsepower has boosted Tugboat’s capacity and strengthened our position. With Pam and Justin onboard we have a more robust offering for our existing clients as well as those we’ve identified as key prospects.”
For their part, the Kinky husband and wife team are thrilled to take up new challenges and see a larger and more powerful company emerge. “Full service, full speed ahead!” says Hnatiuk. “We’re all just trying to do some really great work for our clients, and now we’re in a position to deliver like never before.”
