New Splash Page for Jules Bianchi

October 19th, 2008

Yesterday I put up a new splash page for wedding photographer, Jules Bianchi. We worked together on the look as she had an existing site and blog that the page needed to match and she had a very specific idea of what it should look like.

Here is a screen capture of the new page:

And the old one:

Company Cafe

October 6th, 2008

Company Cafe wanted a basic informational site but needed a look that matched their business. They offer quality food service in corporate environments. So I tried to balance a color scheme that I thought would work well for a cafe with a clean, crisp layout that I might use for a more corporate setting. I also knew I wanted to use a dark solid background to bring out the colors in the pictures they sent me.

They needed a custom logo and this is what I …

Five Day DVD on WeLoveWP.com

October 3rd, 2008

I had a nice surprise in my inbox today.

Apparently Five Day DVD is a featured design on We Love WP (WeLoveWP.com) – a site that showcases custom Wordpress sites.

Only a few days ago, I found the site and browsed all the amazing work on there, getting inspiration and ideas for my own designs. They had a section where you could submit your own site, let them know about it and if they like it, they would include it on their page.

Well, I guess they did, because here it is:

Headshots And Reels

September 27th, 2008

I launched a new website in beta today – www.headshotsandreels.com.

It is still a work in progress, and for now is just the single page with a simple description and a form to send an email. I will be adding some functionality to the form tonight and working on the rest of the site when I can fit it in.

So, if you know any actors looking for a website – send them on over.

Cookin With Lenny

July 7th, 2008

On Friday, I finished a new site design for Cookin With Lenny. In addition to gourmet production catering for TV and film productions, Chef Leonard Bent (aka Lenny), has been the on air chef for years on Good Day LA for Labor Day and Fourth of July shows, featuring his newest recipes. He asked me to redesign his site and I wanted to get it up before his Fourth of July appearance.

The site has lots of great recipes and some Step-by-Step Recipe Videos to cook along with which were pretty much hidden in the old …

Five Day DVD Website

June 26th, 2008

After a couple major overhauls, I have settled on a look and site structure I am pretty happy with.

Five Day DVD Site

Five Day DVD grew out my consultant wok with the American Film Institute and several local high schools. I ended up developing a fairly comprehensive training program based on teaching beginners everything they need to complete a large DVD yearbook project over the course of a five day workshop.

Five Day DVD, was created with Wordpress, a great blog …
