MotoVid Brochures

admin — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:55:13 +0000

I was recently asked to re-design the promotional brochures for MotoVid.com. I used used a combination of Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign to produce the final print ready PDF. The majority of the design work was layed out in Photoshop with logos and other vectors added from Illustrator and then the Inside and Outside pages saved as TIFF’s. Then those TIFF’s were “Placed” into a new InDesign Document and from there Exported as PDF’s with crop and print marks. During the project I had to re-create several of the logos that were used because there were no existing vector images that could be utilized.

I first created a template that could be easily used with different logos for the 3 brochures that were needed, here are two of the 3. They are PDF’s and about 6MB each because they are meant to be printed by a professional printing service.

I have agreed to start work on another new from the ground up website design for Ian Richards Designs. This means that I am currently working on 3 sites at the same time! Good thing it’s fall going into winter otherwise I would be too busy with other outdoor activities like racing and softball to be able to do them all.

The new site will be at http://www.ianricharddesigns.com/ as well as http://www.optimumspaces.com/ Ian designed his own website using MS PowerPoint and I will turn his design into a WordPress theme. Like I said, thank goodness for Winter!

SSB Website Redesign

I hope to be starting this project very soon. I’m still waiting for some artwork but as soon as I have that I will starting the redesign of the Superior Saving Bank website which I originally designed several years ago. Now that I look at it I hate it! What was I thinking? The new SSB site will be designed around WordPress and be much more interactive as well as easier for the end users to update and maintain after I am finished with the redesign.

I will also be moving the domain from it’s current web host to a new one that will allow for more features and function to be added to the new site design.

TOY Website Redesign

So I’ve been working on the Town of York website redesign for the past month and we finally made it live on 10/31. Since then there have been several change requests and I’m still working on the leftside menu, which is why it’s currently a light grey color. When I have the code completed it will be an accordion menu.

Coach’s Club Design

admin — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 16:17:45 +0000

Earlier this year I had the opportunity to design the website for a new sports bar and steakhouse in Cross Plains, WI, Coach’s Club Sports Bar and Steakhouse. The owners also own 3 Culver’s Restaurants in Southern WI; Cross Plains, Mount and Dodgeville.

This is a brand new site from the ground up. I had to enter each of their menu items one by one, all 99 of them! I also visited the resturant to take pictures inside and out as well as meet the clients and discuss their expectations of the website. We met 2 more times to discuss progress and to go over the website to show them how to work with it and maintain it in the future.
