Technology
With over 5 years of research and development, Sparkling Media has dealt with success in conquering many technological challenges such as:

  • Integrating a 3D realistic format on a low resolution platform: TV.
  • Managing to pilot avatars only using a telephone thanks to advanced coordination of IVR and Business Logic Server.
  • Integrating Broadcast within a broadcast - content screens.
  • Bringing Heavy 3D to wide range of users thanks to advanced Flash streaming solutions.
  • Use of Opensource sources and developers allowing easy and rapid integration and evolution of various existing formats (youtube alike, ebay a like...).
  • Opened community database allowing integration of various other communities and therefore create win win partnerships.
  • Database of members managed in order to integrate Datamining functions.




Twinners.com can be scaled to the size of each broadcaster.

  • Regional broadcasters can use our smaller package and major national broadcasters and digital providers might use the multi setup.
  • Nationals might add playouts at the regional level and digital broadcasters may have playouts on more than one channel - therefore increasing revenue potential - as each room broadcasting currently holds a maximum of 66 people.
Sparkling Media products and innovation are geared to addressing very wide audiences for a wide variety of reasons/benefits.

Let's take an example on how Sparkling Media approached its problem with the limitations of a heavy Internet 3D playout using Quest3d for internet users. We found that a high end computer was needed and the Quest3D technology was only ActiveX based hence only available in MS Explorer. Our solution was to develop a Flash Streaming Platform in order to create a streaming Flash solution using RTMP or real time streaming - which would allow the end user (97 percent of them have the Flash plugin) to experience the 3D worlds we create without having to face hardware or software barriers. We feel this technology can revolutionize the entire way of thinking about how to present 3D via the net - which has always had barriers because of heavy computer needs for the end user.

As Social Networking and Community sites in Web 2.0 have proven, the key to building a wide user base making it easy to sign up, making it easy to go viral, make it easy to participate at a basic level, and add on features and perks for high end users who really want to flesh out their profile or really add value to their self brand or virtual ego in a community setting. We consider this in all media that we produce.

The fact that Sparkling Media uses 3D takes us into the realm of new concepts by making visual and interactive - ideas - that were static in the past.




We have created a base for warming the audience to future technology that will allow another step in the process of the need to develop towards newer, more and better technology.

One of the great benefits of our approach is our primary use of Open Source software technology. From our IVR (Asterisk used in our telephony products) to our web architecture (Joomla) we embrace the new concept of software created for and given back to the community.

This new technological methodology in building software architecture will always bring us benefit - because there are always people developing the product and scaling it is quite easy as well as being cost effective. And Sparkling media will shine in the Open Source world by giving back its in-house developed third party add ons or extensions back to the Open Source Communities for others to use.

  • Is a key element for the serenity of the format and piece of mind for us and for the TV Channels.
  • We have partnerships with a moderation company allowing us to insure a high level of security.
  • A complete tool is allowing us to comply with highest standard of moderation as requested by former ICSTIS (pay phone) in the UK.
  • Moderation can be done remotely from home or from offshore call centers.



  • Is a key element for the success of the format in order to stimulate the audience to participate.
  • We have partnerships with companies able to provide us with animators/hosts allowing us to insure a high level of entertainment.
  • The main task is to invite people to join the format as well to select a table or a Twinner and put it on air on TV.
  • The animation can be done remotely from home or from offshore callcenters; however for quality purposes we indeed prefer TV broadcasters or local partners to provide this very important function.
