While it might seem a little crazy to open a multimedia design firm in the current doom and gloom economic climate, Denise sees it a little differently. Of course, it s risky. But after several years of working for bigger companies and paying her dues, she realized that she wanted to be a part of something different. One thing I ve learned in the past year is that there are no guarantees. In fact, I was working for a company in Vancouver that was quite big and six weeks into my job, I was laid off along with most of the staff.
Big companies can go under.
So why not be a part of something you believe in with people you believe in. That way you are a part of making it work. They have been working together since they graduated from VFS and after several years of working for other people, they decided to form their own business. Denise joined them shortly after. Currently the team at toque is working on Oliver Stone - The Veils of Reality , a six episode online series based on a speech delivered by Oliver Stone .
