functionality, full administrative control and three levels of
security, it was, and remains today, state-of-the-art.
Perhaps the first professional web developer with an in-house

The Oncura
trade show display occupied three exhibit spaces, totaling
3,800 square feet, at the American Urological Association's annual
trade show at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta. Clearly
the most radical display at the trade show, Oncura's booth featured
twenty-five cryoneedles measuring 21-ft tall and topped off with
5-ft iceballs, representations of the company's patented, break-through
prostate and renal cancer treatment. Seventeen LCD and two plasma
screens were positioned around Oncura's booths and played a video
scripted, animated, edited, and produced by Dynamic Digital Advertising.
Basic lithographic printing has not changed in the last 150 years, but
DDA’s long history of work with color theory and offset print
technology allows it to blend four process colors of Cyan, Magenta,
Black, and Yellow into 50,000+ colors with great precision. In 2007,
DDA designed and color manipulated a Grout Sample Card for Starquartz
that produced 30 color chips with color correct precision similar to
that achieved by much more expensive paint chip printing technology,
which can cost ten times as much. Color Critical Print, the DDA way.
Corporate and Medical videos will never be the same with the DDA Video Showcase, introduced in 2007. From training and promotional to entertaining and educational, videos developed by DDA are a cut above the rest. The showcase is sure to be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before with a gallery of 30 different video categories from which to choose, live spokesperson actors in front of and interacting with a virtual stage explaining DDA’s proprietary process and services, and a network of professional, highly skilled actors and actresses. While visiting the Showcase, make it a point to browse BYOV where you can start to Build Your Own Video with an interactive Request for Proposal (RFP).
Slightly depressed, semi-suicidal Inside-out Man is a new type of superhero, fighting the world’s enemies alongside such greats as Batman and Superman. After laser-induced light energy transportation caused him to dematerialize and reassemble with his organs outside of his body, he has now become the ultimate Organ Donor™. His viral marketing campaign can be found on social networking sites like YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook, as well as his own site, www.insideoutman.com. As a 3D superhero, he has sparked user interest and prompted people to be an outside influence. Some people where their heart on their sleeve, Inside-out Man wears his heart on his chest.
Every year Goldline Research investigates and evaluates thousands of professional services providers across the country to determine “The Most Dependable” among a specific service industry. 2008 marks the first year Goldline has selected The Top Ten Most Dependable Search Engine Marketing Firms in the U.S., and Dynamic Digital Advertising is on the list. After undergoing Goldline Research’s stringent selection process, meeting their comprehensive criteria, and receiving great reviews from reference checks with many of our clients, Goldline Research presented us with this prestigious unsolicited award. We’re proud to say that after pioneering ethical search engine marketing practices in 1996 and improving and evolving them ever since, we’ve been acknowledged within the industry as one of “The Top Ten Most Dependable Search Engine Marketing Firms in the U.S.”.
To promote a better understanding of the technical and creative members that comprise our staff, DDA has expanded our Meet DDA area to include text and video blogs. Now, not only can you view a hand-drawn illustration, done by one of our graphic artists, of each member of our team, you can read their blogs, which range in topic from daily projects to weekend excursions, and you can watch a video vignette of each DDA staff professional. Corporate blogs are not new, video testimonials are fairly common, and illustrations are a well-known design aesthetic. What makes Meet DDA different is the unique integration of illustration, text, and video to help you get to know each of us on a personal and individual level. We want you to feel comfortable working with us whether it’s your first project and your business is based across the globe, or it’s your fifth project and your business is based around the corner.
DDA merges an animated character and a live actor with seamless interaction in video vignettes for the DDA Corporate and Medical Training (DDA CMT) website. DDA animators have years of experience in producing 2D and 3D animation for a variety of projects, and our videographers film professional actors from the DDA Actor’s Network on a regular basis. Once again, DDA has successfully married the two types of technology in a way that is unique, innovative, and fun. Through this project, we are also introducing the concept of an Intelligent Spokesperson™, which is a video guide to help users intuitively, and in a video-based way, navigate to areas of importance on CD-ROMs, DVDs, websites, intranets, and much more. An Intelligent Spokesperson™ can be applied to technology-based training programs explaining complex procedures, or to interactive websites promoting a product or service. Through a hybrid, step-by-step approach, the Intelligent Spokesperson™ will help you and your customers, clients, or patients get to where you or they want to go.
DDA takes real-world experiences and information, and blends them into an engaging interactive environment in the HPV web-based tool DDA Medical developed for the Association of Reproductive Health Professionals (ARHP). The first of its kind, this tool allows users to immerse themselves in a comfortable online medical office environment that mimics a friendly, private consultation one would have in real life. Through custom ActionScript programming and Flash animation, magazines come forward from the wall rack with informative articles and corresponding physician videos that guide users through the tool and elaborate on the user-chosen topic. The tool gives users access to gender- and age-specific information on HPV prevention and treatment, so that they have an online experience that’s tailored to their true-life needs. Watching this at home may just be the ultimate redefinition of the virtual physician house call.

Visit trade show booths of your chosen industry or favorite products without ever leaving the office with virtual trade shows from DDA. In 2008, DDA created an interactive online trade show booth for Dorman Products, one of the nation’s leading aftermarket automotive parts manufacturers. Featured are over 50 individual product panels that, when selected, zoom forward for an enlarged view of information, ranging from product information sheets and sell sheets to videos, audio, and more. DDA’s virtual trade show for Dorman Products comes equipped with a tracking mechanism for managers to track the show’s traffic, the information accessed by each user, and the click-through rate, as well as an administrative content management system for managers to update images, panels, and downloadable materials as needed.
DDA allows users to upload their future by uploading videos of past performances in a variety of sports. TheNextIcon.com was created by DDA to connect student athletes with collegiate and pro scouts to secure scholarships or full-time careers in professional sports. Among the long list of DDA’s services utilized to build the site was complex programming for profile, search, wish list, and communication tools, as well as a video upload feature that gave users the opportunity to submit highlight clips in nearly any video format from major games or practices. After submission, the clips automatically convert to the appropriate format for proper viewing on the site, are attached to the user’s profile, and may be selected by website administrators for inclusion on the dynamic front page “video wall” as a feature reel for visitors entering on the home page.
To demonstrate the innate power and innovative possibilities of social networking websites, DDA created one of its own called YouBetMyLife.com (also referred to as YBML). Create your own bet or place bets on people’s goals and problems, celebrities’ lives, politics, sports, predictions, surveys, polls, and anything without spending a dime. All bets are placed using YBML currency known as Bettys and it’s free to join. There is no marketing campaign associated to YBML, so its growth is solely dependent on continually expanding usership. DDA doesn’t thrive by the motto, “Build it and they will come.”, but rather “Be innovative and build it with advanced technological tools and they will come, share with friends and family, and create a community with like-minded goals.”

DDA has revolutionized website design yet again with the launch of the DDA SmartSite™ for DDA Medical in the spring of 2009. Based on DDA’s innovative synchronous media development, the entire website, with the exception of the “My Library” feature, is viewable from one page. This includes more than 200 pages of content, more than 50 integrated videos, and more than 200 portfolio samples across 200 service areas. You can see it all without ever navigating from the homepage. All sections include synched video, text, and samples, completely controlled by you. Close and reopen the video, text, or sample modules as you see fit to view any combination of the three. Scroll through samples of projects we’ve created in any of our service areas without ever interrupting the video or text you’re watching at that moment. With the “My Library” feature, you can save videos, text, and samples for easy reference at a later date or to e-mail to a friend or colleague. Just click on the “Add to My Library” button and the link to that page or sample image is saved in a personal library area, accessible only to you and available at every subsequent visit, with no log-in or registration required. Never before has it been so easy to learn so much in so little time and as exactly as you want.
