The Muscogee County Library Foundation celebrates a celebrated author at it's annual black-tie Gala. Last year was a very entertaining Kathryn Stockett (The Help). This upcoming year will be Scott Turow (Presumed Innocent). Can't wait!
</div>
This photo session goal: get an image of the Columbus Library for the cover of the gala invitation. The photos were culled down, and then artistic renderings were made from the 2 finalists.

<br />
Today was the funeral of a sweet little girl, Madison Kay Douglas. Madi and her family are in our church, and in the time I have known them I have seen them strengthen and uplift everyone around them. Shortly after her third birthday, and about eight months ago, Madi was diagnosed with a rare brain tumor.<br />
<br />
Today we were among serveral hundred people wearing shades of purple (Madi's favorite color). Between purple ballons and purple decorations everywhere, lots of children singing, profoundly beautiful words shared and a deeply touching slide show put to music, I came away a changed person.<br />
<br />
One of my favorite parts of the slide show was a video clip of Madi spashing in a puddle with her arms wide out to her sides, and her head thrown back singing in dramatic fashion "Laaaaaa, Laaaaaaaaaaaaa, Laaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!)<br />
<br />
Madi lived every moment of life to the fullest. She ran hard. She jumped high. She smiled often and laughed hard. She gave lots of kisses and hugs to her her family. Because she lived her life with such vibrance, I feel inspired to live with more energy, gratitude and vibrance in mine. Thank you Madi.<br />

Who'd have thought that getting name tags would take over 5 months? Not me! <br />
<br />
The design didn't take too long. Once we had our business cards, we knew we wanted something similar. It needed to be the same colors with gradient and everything. Finding a multi-color print-complicated-image-on-plastic with magnet attachment was a challenge.<br />
<br />
We have a strong local-business-loyalty. Unfortunately, the availability was just not there to "go local" (our several-month search). Online search brought us to a company we are very happy with.<br />
<br />
Do you like the finished product?<br />

Hemet, California<br />
<a href="http://www.circleoflifepet.com/">www.circleoflifepet.com</a><br />
<br />
This beautiful little place is unique in many ways. My favorite thing is that they encourage people to visit them! Literally in the middle of an orange grove, the path to the building is picturesque, and the smell that greets you at the door is deep cedar.<br />
<br />
Did I mention how sweet and thoughtful they are?<br />
<br />
I have been assisting Circle of Life for over 5 years now with their design, print, photography and website needs. We make a good team!<br />
<br />
Goals:<br />
-Communicate who they are, what they do, and how they do it<br />
-Showcase services and products provided<br />
-Help clients and their pets feel the care and respect that Circle of Life works so hard to provide<br />
-Provide sources of healing and comfort<br />

<b>Design</b><br />
<br />
Colors: white (clean) blues (water, refreshing) greens (plants, growth) blacks (in small amounts here, they provide contrast, clarity)<br />
Images: strong, with pleasant and balanced composition<br />
Frames: organization and line of sight<br />
Texture: water, natural landscaping materials, rock<br />
Organization: products and results in horizontal bar, detailed company information in side bar, header (first thing you see) keeps your attention, easily locate-able contact information on every page<br />
<br />
<b>Build</b><br />
<br />
Slide show: draws attention to strong images<br />
Click to see more images: more visuals at command of viewer<br />
Buttons: float over/light up water-bubble is a cool effect<br />
<br />
10 pages<br />

Along with the design-to-print, I did all the image photography for these cards. These pictures were collected from several sessions, including a night shoot needed to showcase lighting.<br />

Design Wise: What do you see first? What information is easiest to see and understand? What is the 'line of sight' you follow (if a laser could trace the path your eyes take, what shape would be left on the paper)? Are there words you skip over? <br />
<br />
Tools used: size variation, simple lines, clean contrast, and color (I love lots of balanced color in photographs! Color brings energy, and a business wanting to grow needs to show that energy. Blue and green fonts reflect that this is a landscape company.)Jennifer Alba Apffelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10499426623098493399noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-112847499566177784.post-39697187987824520552011-10-20T09:30:00.000-07:002011-10-20T09:30:01.826-07:00Beyond Actual Words - Communication in DesignWhat are you communicating?<br />
<br />
Is it what you want to say?<br />
<br />
The words you place on an ad, on a website, in print, are all important. But they are not even HALF of all you are 'saying'.<br />
<br />
Comparison:<br />
Verbal communication means more than the actual words. The sound, inflection, volume, and tone can say very different things while the words remain the same. Throw in circumstance and body language and you have a very complex delivery system of meaning. How many different ways can you say the boring statement "She went to the store"...? (SHE went, and not me?) -pouty- (She WENT already- but I wanted to go!)-frustration- (WHERE did she go?) -I'm lost- (which store?) -confusion- (she went SHOPPING?) Now we are getting more interesting. -whose money is she spending?- -she is spending money AGAIN?- ... How many different ways can YOU say it?<br />
<br />
Visual communication is just as involved! Tools used in visual design can show who you are, what you do, how you do it, where you came from, where you are going, and so much more.<br />
<br />
Some of these tools are:<br />
#1. fonts<br />
<br />
#2. colors<br />
<br />
#3. layout and composition<br />
<br />
#4. complexity/simplicity<br />
<br />
#5. texture<br />
<br />
#6. amount of content<br />
<br />

<br />
How would describe these fonts? What adjectives would you use? Masculine or feminine? Straight-forward? Interesting? Complicated? If you really get into it, you could go on and on. Every choice has both positive and negative associations. Can you see both?<br />

Marquette assisted Hal and DJ of Pope Video Productions in making a very impressive video that ran during the ceremony. It is in high demand!

Inc. (MMM) was the logo. Kelley green is our basic color. The exclamation mark is an important design element we will be using in creative ways (circles, rectangles and squares).<br />
<br />
Another local marketing company was already using the exclamation mark in their design, so we had to get creative: We turned it sideways.<br />

Notice also the footer element, designed to be easily used in all work documents, power-points, etc.<br />
<br />
Because all print needs to be adapted to black and white on occasion, here is a black&white design. It is simplified, without the curved gradient on top.<br />

With the exclamation mark turned sideways, we now have a 'space' in the circle we can use to highlight what ever we choose. We like to put a keyword or client name there as it fits the purpose of the document. Unique and a bit fun.<br />
<br />
We ordered and received the stationary from the printer. There is nothing quite like holding your own design on beautiful heavy paper. Yum.<br />

Inc. was to give them a new 'brand'. A long-standing and well known business here in Columbus, GA, MMM is a reflection of it's founder, Marquette McKnight. <br />
<br />
Observations: Colorful office, modern art (including Andy Worhol), laughter, red-head with Irish heritage, intensity, (not to mention great experience and know-how).<br />
<br />
Here is the logo that MMM had for the last 10+ years.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjge2L2JgGJXghV_3oDjTgJl5oCTS4m807Zuaam4zsJwBX0CbEcCBctajJVputdGR5tbedTzVoe8MdwD874Xnw0WFGudC8gKv4vuPTbR17aR7_lho7S9yAk598PX5e50cfL-il3fju3LuY/s1600/old+logo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="144" width="222" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjge2L2JgGJXghV_3oDjTgJl5oCTS4m807Zuaam4zsJwBX0CbEcCBctajJVputdGR5tbedTzVoe8MdwD874Xnw0WFGudC8gKv4vuPTbR17aR7_lho7S9yAk598PX5e50cfL-il3fju3LuY/s400/old+logo.jpg" /></a></div><br />

I did quality research and then presented our new look and feel.<br />
<br />
COLOR is very important to me. It says so much. This green is not only a favorite color of Marquette's, it shows the energy and vibrance that she has in her work.<br />
<br />
It is a bit unusual to have an exclamation mark as part of a legal business name, so I began my mission to use it well.<br />
<br />
Here is our new logo:<br />

A logo needs to be adaptable to both color and black and white printing. It also needs to be legible in both large and small sizes. Here is the logo in black&white:<br />
