Developing Beam For Android
We are in the prochedure of developing Beam for android.
We will not use adobe air api (that was our first plan) cause of memory issues and android device compatibilities (only a small ammount of android devices can “run” adobe air platform).
Heedia.com video production project
Our team is setting up an expalanatory video for Beam service. As we are not going after a major video provider we would like to work close with a creative team of producers to put this online following a win-win model.
Duration of video will not exceed 1 minute. If you are interested in participating in this project you can email us at info (at) heedia.com.
Video will have a major exposure in all media planning of our project.
Thanks
