President and Founder

Visual media has been Rich’s focus since slides were hand-spliced and he delivered the final product personally. Today he sees the evolution of graphics, web, and print in the cloud, and a one-stop solution for the speaker’s bureau in Speakcore 2.0. Rich’s organic garden provides the greens and carrots for his daily shake and Buster the Boxer keeps him on the go. Delving back to his roots, Rich shoots portraits in his home photography studio. After hundreds of hours of study, Rich has become a photoshop aficionado.

Josh finds creativity and constant learning as the parallel between his early career interest in culinary arts and his current role in software development. He beams when he describes Speakcore 2.0 as light years ahead of the legacy platform. Cooking, music, and driving help Josh relax, so he considers his commute and making dinner as his time to destress. Josh goes all out for Christmas Eve by preparing the family-friendly version of the Feast of the Seven Fishes. His music go-to is jazz, seeing artists in Philly and New York clubs, and listening while he works.

Speakcore newbie, Jess, is a techie who went back to school between feedings of her infant son (now a teenager.) A former software developer, she is in awe of the Speakcore architecture, finding genius at every turn. Jess compares the impact of Speakcore® on Speaker Bureaus to a small living area after a makeover from ”Tiny House, Big Living” professionals, maximizing use of existing space and preparing for future change. Joining others with little knowledge of anime characters, Jess learned the power of Halloween as anime enthusiasts nodded approval to her son’s costume while trick-or-treating. She’s looking forward to a family trip to Jordan to visit historical sites and meet her in-laws.

Company History

Founded in 1989 by President and CEO Richard Van Fleet, Creative MediaWorks initially focused on computer-generated graphic design and state-of-the-art presentation support. We became well known for our stringent standards, dedication to customer service and intense focus on delivering high-quality results on time and on budget.

Creative MediaWorks has since grown into a full-service graphics agency with a complete in-house staff of designers, programmers, and digital print specialists. With the company’s close proximity to New Jersey’s major pharmaceutical, biotech organizations, and their agencies, Creative MediaWorks quickly developed their niche as a valued creative partner to Life Science professionals throughout the region.

“CMW has supported our poster development for the last several years, and they do an outstanding job. They are sensitive to our needs and those of our clients, adhere to all imposed timelines, and are very accessible to making changes on the fly, assisting us with any issues, and communicating clearly and timely about any issues and shipping, which is a critical component to the poster development. CMW is also up on the latest trends and materials in scientific posters, and works with us to solve any display issues we may have. They are truly a partner we can count on, and treat our work as their own.”
Vice President, Senior Program DirectorMedical Communications Agency
“The first thing everyone said when I showed them the posters was how lucky we are to have found CMW. It was ironic because everyone said the same exact thing 'wow, what a great find this company is', verbatim. You consistently do great work and the ease of communication with you and your team is always noticed and appreciated. It’s so nice to have a partner that we can rely on for all of our projects. Thanks again for everything that you do!”
Senior Manager, Medical CommunicationsPharmaceutical Company
“I am on the plane on my way to Vegas for our meetings and I just came across the 10,000 emails that we sent each other during the course of this program. Which prompted me to say THANK YOU and your team for everything you did to make this happen. I know we asked you to work with very tight timelines and you and your team never missed a deadline, were immediately responsive and jumped through a thousand hoops for us. I truly appreciate all of your efforts. I really hope that we can work together on another project, and hopefully one that has more reasonable timelines! THANK YOU!!”
Senior Account SupervisorMedical Communications Agency
“Thanks so much for asking – the presentation went great! They absolutely loved the Power theme – loved the idea of it and the creative. Total compliments on all the creative – so I thank you and the team for pulling through for us and I totally expect to call you again as we build out the plan to the next level. Please pass onto the creative team!”
VP, Senior Program DirectorMedical Communications Agency
“I just wanted to personally thank you guys for your help over the last month and half with all the posters. The whole gang at Creative MediaWorks have been doing such a wonderful job for us. You can always be counted on, even with a short timeline. Believe me, without Creative MediaWorks, I would surely have lost my sanity. You really made it easy and we can always count on you for a quick turnaround, and flawless products. Again thank you very much for your help.”
