Artifact Design has launched a new division focused on interactive design. The interactive division will specialize in creating and implementing design for DVD and web based projects.

Director of Interactive Media, Tanner Critz, said that interactive design was a natural extension of services for Artifact. Joining the division are Senior Designer Scott Schoeder, formerly with WebMD and Designer Mark Lafond, who was with CNN Interactive. Artifact has already completed websites for Film Captive Productions, King Plow Arts Center, Ron MacDonald Photography and Plaster City Films. Plaster City Films is a Hollywood based production company led by Christopher Coppolla, nephew of Francis Ford Coppolla. The division also authored and designed a DVD for the locally produced short film “Carma.”
