Over 30 Years

Before becoming part of The Trifect Agency, since 1984 Studio C has been a media production studio with an amazing track record. After many years of traditional tv and radio media production, in the 1980s, interactive media work started on the industry’s very first projects, including production work on the first interactive encyclopedia (Encarta), to media production for some of the the earliest AAA game titles (Everquest). The interactive and software development would become The Trifect Agency. Studio C’s company infrastructure, production talent, and cutting-edge media production studio facilities are now a part of The Trifect Agency, ensuring the latest cutting-edge technology with traditional business legacy.
