About MediaPlace
MediaPlace is a New York-based digital experience and experiential design agency specializing in place-based media. Founded in 1993, the company creates content and interactive environments for retail stores, restaurants, dealerships, cultural institutions and commercial spaces. Its work combines creative production with the technical development and ongoing management of digital display networks.
The agency’s early work centered on in-store television networks, video walls and custom media programs for national retail chains. Its capabilities have expanded to include digital menu boards, interactive touchscreen kiosks, projection mapping and architectural video walls. Projects bring together motion graphics, animation, live-action production and interface design, with content developed for the dimensions, functions and audience of each screen or installation.
From creative development to network operation
MediaPlace’s production services encompass concept development, scripting, storyboarding, casting and live-action shooting. The studio also creates 2D and 3D animation for retail displays, large architectural screens and stadium environments. Interactive work includes customer journeys, touchscreen applications and interfaces that respond to user behavior.
Beyond content creation, the agency advises on display specifications, hardware and software selection, and network deployment. Its ongoing support includes cloud-based content management, scheduling, dayparting and remote display maintenance. Digital menu systems can incorporate dynamically updated pricing through HTML and CSS, connecting creative presentation with changing operational information.
Commercial experiences and broadcast production
For Jamba, MediaPlace delivered a three-phase in-store digital transformation involving menu boards, interactive nutrition screens and branded motion loops. Its Case IH work includes a national dealership media program, sales video networks and interactive equipment displays. Other documented projects include retail video wall programming for Snipes and Kicks USA, touchscreen experiences for New York Road Runners, and an interactive sales application for Dorma+Kaba.
The company also produces broadcast programming. In partnership with Reisenbach Philanthropies, MediaPlace has produced Dear New York, an annual one-hour television special airing across major New York television affiliates, including WCBS, WNBC and FOX 5.
