Summary: Clark Campbell’s series, The One-Page Project Manager is a best selling set of books that details how to manage and report on projects of any size using a single spreadsheet. His method is used by large companies and education institutions worldwide. Clark decided it was time to take his concept online and hired myself and my brother, Davey Harding to redesign his existing site and also create a web app that had all the functionality needed to manage the OPPM process in a simple “wizard” format.
I used Adobe Photoshop to design the new layout and a combination of ColdFusion, Flash video, jQuery and HTML/CSS for the code side. The e-commerce piece was handled by Davey (built on AuthorizeNet) as was the web app portion of the site which will be launching later this summer.

Company: Russo’s on the Bay
Summary: It was time for Russo’s to update their wedding reception/event center website and they wanted something that better captured the look and ambiance of their location. Telestory Pictures was contracted by Russo’s on the Bay to develop and build their website and media materials. TeleStory Pictures hired me as a freelance web designer for the project.
Using Adobe Photoshop I combined elements from interior photos taken of their building to create the design. The home page was created in Flash and it changes from a day photo to a nighttime photo if you visit in in the evening. The site is programmed in ColdFusion using an open source CMS (Content Management System) called Mura. This gives the Russo’s access to edit all of their content (no HTML required) and add new content as necessary. Telestory Pictures also created some awesome videos and virtual tours that you can see in the media section of the site.

Company: Long Island Bride and Groom
Summary: Telestory Pictures was contracted by Long Island Bride and Groom to develop and build their website and media materials. TeleStory Pictures hired me as a freelance web designer for the project.
This was a very challenging project that involved redesigning an existing wedding website with hundreds of pages, multiple admin portals and account pages and tons of content. The site was built in ASP and the content pulls from a SQL database. Our job was to take the existing code infrastructure and give it a new look and feel. This not only included the basic site template, but also coming up with more efficient/usable ways to display the content including text, videos, and client images.
The old site design (especially the home page) suffered from content overload and was very busy. One of our goals was to clean up and simplify the design without losing any of the crucial elements. What made this tricky was that we needed to design a site that looked new but operated on the existing backend admin tool and code that the client uses. The before and after picture above is an example of how we accomplished this.

Company: Candeo
Summary: This site was designed for a company that produces online content to help people overcome addictions.
I used Photoshop to create the design concept. The XHTML/CSS layout was done by Russ Williams, another member of the team. The bulk of this project was Flash. I used Flash to create two powerful marketing pieces available from the home page (the second is linked to from within the first Flash). I also used Flash to create hours of video training modules where users can view “one-on-one” sessions with doctors to help them overcome their porn or other addictions. I used cues in Flash to sync up animation and effects with the flv videos of the doctors.

The Inn is a classy wedding reception and event center in New York. Their slogan is “Celebrating One Fairy-Tale at a Time” and they wanted a Fairy-Tale site to match.
The concept is an interactive book with separate pages for each section of the site. I created the design in Photoshop and then took it into Flash to animate the book. The videos and the photos were shot by Telestory Pictures, and I used Flash to display them gallery style.

Company: Kassing Andrews Advertising
Summary: This site was done for Kassing Andrews Advertising in collaboration with Hadley Soffe and John Thornton. Kassing Andrews is a high-end advertising firm in Salt Lake City with clients like Big O Tires, Comcast, and Ivory Homes. They wanted a site that showed off their cool office space and was as unique as they are in the industry.
First we did a photo shoot at the Kassing Andrews office where we shot different employees hanging out in the lobby. Hadley created the design in Photoshop and I took it into Flash, adding sound, interactivity and randomization. I also created the media player that is shown on the Client pages using Flash and XML. John Thornton created the back end that allows Kassing Andrews to manage clients, etc.
