Hoot Communications

Hoot Communications does many things well. That comes through more than 30 years of varied experience in publishing, advertising, video production, print and online design.

Back in the 1980s when Bob Hoot started Hoot Creative, the graphic design studio was small in size but big on ideas and services offered. When illustration was required, Hoot illustrated. When a map was needed, he learned a cartography. When a photograph needed retouching, Hoot learned a retouching.

As the digital revolution dawned, Hoot embraced new technology and relished working with increasingly sophisticated tools. He worked with Compugraphic phototype in the mid-1970s and he created animation on a propriety computer system in the early 1980s. In 1990, Apple released the Quadra 900 tower ... a screaming-fast 25 MHz process with 16 MB of RAM (Hoot boosted that to 20 MB ... Whoa!). Hoot added more computers, processing power, applications and enhanced skills.

Hoot’s creative work will always be guided by his head, heart and hand. Hoot has always valued great ideas realized with impeccable technique. Technology has allowed Hoot the ability to manage more projects, more efficiently to turn more great ideas into solutions for clients. Clients appreciate that. Printers and Web developers appreciate the exacting specifications to which files comply.

Hoot Communications offers a breadth of services and a depth of creativity supported by the right technologies and most current applications.
