Interactive flash actionscript website development and design for a London based contemporary artist.

I was contracted by Bruce Chidovori, a leading contemporary artist on the London scene to develop a website for him that would help promote his work, allow him to update and display his work online through the use of a custom built bespoke content management system developed in house for Deegan Art.

The website had to be interactive, engage to the user while being easy to navigate and usable. In designing the website, I brought together different aspects linked to Bruce such his cultural heritage, interests, likes and dislikes and merged them together creating a fusion of pleasurable aesthetics.

I also produced a corporate identity for Bruce to use with the promotion of his work and website, designed banner ads which were featured at his gallery viewings in the heart of London and promotional flyers and material.

Canon Toshiba Copiers – Cut Price Copiers

Complete website design and development, flash advertising banner creation, corporate branding for Cut Price Copiers. Canon-Toshiba-Copiers is a subsidiary of SOS Systems based in Crawley, West Sussex who are registered resellers of Canon and Toshiba full colour photocopiers.

I was contracted by a Crawley based Creative Digital Agency to completely design and develop a website for Crawley based company SOS Systems that would help promote and drive online sales of their premium full color Canon and Toshiba color photocopiers through the help of targeted search engine optimised website pages developed to help head and drive organic search engine traffic.

Cut Price Copiers is the online e-commerce trading name for SOS Systems Limited based in Crawley West Sussex trading on the URL www.canon-toshiba-copiers.co.uk . SOS Systems were founded in 1985 and have approved dealerships with Canon, Toshiba, Infotec and KIP, gaining an excellent reputation for prompt and efficient service at very competitive prices.

As the website was a new website that was being setup, I had complete control and free reign on the look and feel of the website and had to plan, visualise and produce a new marketing brand for SOS Systems / Canon Toshiba Copiers that would be aesthetically pleasing, easy to navigate and developed and written in a search engine friendly way to help drive organic search engine traffic by allowing for relevant content to be served to the user first and also basing the website layout and links to allow for search engine friendly URL’s containing relevant and targeted keywords rather than dynamically generated URL’s which search engine bots tend to struggle with.

I visualised, designed and developed a corporate brand logo to be used with the website that would compliment the site and give the website and arm (Cut Price Copiers) of SOS Systems brand recognition in it’s own right. This logo is based on the name of the website (Cut Price Copiers) and bears an abstract resemblence to the acronym of the name (CPC).

As the website is mainly to promote and drive sales of Canon and Toshiba brand color copiers. I designed the website and logo to use the the same color scheme as their suppliers Canon and Toshiba, allowing the end user to easily connect with and allow recognition of the products being promoted.

I also created various flash and static advertising banners with custom animations to give the website visual appeal and to allow the customer to be able to interact with the website easily and more efficiently.

Useful World is an online ecommerce site based on the magento platform which specialises in electric and useful home products. I was approached by the client for help with rebranding their company image, re-designing their website to give a fresher more unique look.

My role was to visualize and create a logo for the company which would be used as their brand name on stationery, online sales and banners, design a colourful website to compliment their logo. I provided the client with psd files of the design which they intergrate onto their existing website based on the magento platform.

Amongst other things, I’ve also been developing my iPhone specific website which I’ll hopefuly be launching in the not so distant future (knowing me, that’ll  probably be in the 1st quarter of 2009, lol). As I haven’t had much time to re-design my site, I’ve decided to keep my old portfolio site (freshening it up a bit of course) and build an iPhone site to compliment it and allow iPhone users to sort of get the same effects as the iPhone doesn’t have flash unfortunately.

Working tirelessly to get the blog completed so should be done pretty soon, fingers crossed… now where’s that cup of coffee?
