Onteca

Onteca is an interactive media company that works with some of the most difficult emerging technologies in both the creative and digital sector.

Onteca was established in 2001, since that time we have produced interactive content for a wide range of clients including the BBC, AMD and John Moores University.
Our success is due to our work with innovative technologies and content development, and more importantly our staff whom have unparalleled experience and expertise.

One of our main aims here at Onteca is to work with a diverse range of communities in order to ensure that access to the fast paced world of digital media can be made available to all.
As a result of this we are particularity interested in the use of novel technologies to support learning across schools, communities and higher education institutions. Thus we actively experiment with new ways of training people in the most up-to-date technologies.

Our work and training practice is virtually unique, previous trainees now work for major computer game developers including Sony, Codemasters and Rare.
Consequently we have established a very close connection to the MA Digital Games at Liverpool John Moores University where our staff teach modules and co produce on the cutting edge Directed Digital Workshop element of the degree.

Our extensively developed commercial and artistic practice is used to inform and formulate our training. It is important we have this in order to provide a worthwhile learning experience for students ranging from school children to professional games producers. Here at Onteca we believe that having both commercial and creative credibility is essential.
