web media
travistipton.com
project name : travis tiptonpurpose : provide a simple, solid web site for travis tipton that provides information about his work and his studio.
story : being a friend of mine, travis and i worked easily together and communicated well. he gave me a general layout idea on paper and a general logo idea as well. all i had to do is make his ideas come alive. i replied back with some sample logos and reported to him from time to time with changes and new ideas i had made in which travis would approve or need changes of his own. the result you see is a site with colors that travis chose and his general layout and logo ideas.
sample media : | logo 1 | logo 2 | logo 3 | final logo |
result : www.travistipton.com
faderocks.net
project name : fadepurpose : create a website for the band fade. alot of information and images, everything a band needs in the industry including mailing list, guestbook, videos, cd booklet design, and advertising banners.
story : probably my favorite site at the time. a site based on many image layers, the overall idea is a book and the pages are the sections of the site. this site had tons of images. i used alot of shadows and changing the opacity of the image layers to make things stand out where they needed to be. i worked very hard on making it look as though you were looking through an old work book and you can see by the texture of the pages i came pretty close.
sample media : | main page | page detail 1 | page detail 2 |
additional media : | advertising banner | clip 1 | clip 2 |
result : site no longer active

purpose : a lady wanted me to restore a photo of her when she was a child. it was in peices and the edges were torn as well. i scanned the peices then placed them together and also blended the edges so they fit together seamlessly. below is the before and after picture.sample media : | before | after |
dvd/video media
dvd picture slideshow presentation
project names : tipton wedding, smith anniversary, reed graduationpurpose : the main purpose of each of the dvds i made was to showcase the people involved in their sentimental occasions.
story : each of them different but the main idea being the same. each of them chose their own songs that were special to them except the smith's which were chosen by their daughters and myself for it was a suprise present. the projects varied in length (5 min - 15 min) and were filled with pictures, music, and text.

project name : fade studio videopurpose : create a video that could be streamed for the fade website
story : i simply took the footage and converted to a streamable file type and added text and transistions. in the first clip sync'd up music with the video, the other is more straightfoward with transitions. the guy on the drums is my good friend art quanstrom.

printed media
poster/flyer
project name : ky/tn junior rodeopurpose : design a flyer to advertise the kentucky - tennessee junior rodeo.
story : the client came to me with the information and said they would like something that looks 'western' or like a rodeo. we communicated solely be email and it worked out nicely. i would email versions of the flyer as time passed and made changes if event information changed or if they wanted something a different way. there were also photos involed in which i manipulated them to appear as old antique photos to go along with the theme of the flyer. i only designed the poster, the client took them to be printed. (the photography is by christy ricketts)
