During the Summer of 2009, Mechan Media worked with author Patrick Carman and filmmaker Jeffrey Townsend on the production of Trackers, a multimedia book series written by Patrick Carman and published by Scholastic.  The format is one in which part of the story takes place in the book, and part in a series of online videos.

The videos were produced by Patrick Carman and directed by Jeffrey Townsend, who turned to Mechan Media when putting together the video production team.  Townsend was a fan of the group’s work and wanted to build a crew for Trackers with Mechan Media at the center.

Members of the Mechan Media team filled the following roles during production:

• Art Director
• Director of Photography
• Camera Operator
• Associate Producer
• Location Manager

From the close of production through the winter of 2010, Mechan Media also provided post production services including:

• Assistant Editing
• Principal Editing
• Compositing

The first Trackers book was released May 10, 2010.
