Maurice Whitaker (aka) Modoe has a deep understanding of tehcnology coupled with a creative vision that gives him the ability to take a small idea and create an invaluable asset.Modoe is a native New Yorker whose vision and understanding comes from spending more than 20 years in design and media production at some of the top companies in the creative field. Modoe honed his talent as the Creative Director for Loud Records and later Jive records. In 1999, he founded Modoe Media, a creative Consulting agency combining the concepts of new media and solid marketing techniques. Some of his clients included HBO, MTV, Coca Cola and Sony Music.

I believe the internet is the greatest equalizer ever invented. Whether you have a billion dollar budget or just enough to pay your internet bill, you have the same access and ability to generate income in the emerging global market.
Technology is constantly evolving and it seems that every year it becomes more user friendly. It takes people like me to make what seems complicated simple enough for the masses to consume.
After many years of working with various forms of media, I realized that the perfect combination of sounds and visuals can manage the perception of millions of people. For me, the web is a great lab to experiment with this theory.
For the past 20+ years I've helped many companies, large and small, develop their creative vision for mass consumption. Whether it's a flyer or an ad campaign, I can handle any challenge.
