About the name
We get a lot of compliments on our name, and we take its meaning seriously. We’re not interested in media because it’s trendy or new. We’re committed to providing our clients with the tools, content, training, and strategic solutions – whatever they may be – that are truly useful to their goals.
Who we are
Visual storytellers. Interactive experience designers. Digital media educators.
Dan Winckler founded the Really Useful Media Company in 2007 as an outgrowth of his graduate work in digital media. He oversees the design and execution of all technical aspects of the company’s work, always drawing on both his professional background across a range of media as well as the curiosity and love of learning that have lead to his deep knowledge of video, streaming media, interactive environments and projection design. Dan graduated from William & Mary with a BA in Literary Studies and also holds an MS in Interactive Digital Media from Polytechnic University (now BXMC at Poly:NYU) in Brooklyn. Learn more about Dan.
