Our Services...
Web Design / Web Development
As more and more people are going straight to the Internet to find the services that they need, it is becoming increasingly more important that every business, no matter what their size or sector, has an impressive website.
More often than not, your visitors will decide whether to use your service based purely on their online impression of you, and if this doesn't blow your competitors out of the water, then it will become even more difficult to succeed in this rapidly expanding marketing medium.
Logo Design / Branding
Effective branding is one of the most important steps in creating and maintaining a successful company image. Branding forms preconceptions and an idea of the level of knowledge, professionalism, and overall quality of the company that it represents.
When creating your brand identity we consider every element of your business, ensuring that everything we create is representative of your company operations, values, and aspirations. It is also important that your logo is usable across many different platforms. We will test it at various sizes, make sure it is perfectly legible in black and white, ensure that it works on your website, and that it will print without any trouble onto business cards, letterheads, and stationary.
Print Design
In all areas of business it is important to a) be remembered, and b) leave a good impression behind. When you leave a networking event, or a meeting with a new client, you want the people that you have spoken to to think of you first, before any of the other people that they met before. Something needs to stand out, and considering that your business card will be the only reminder of your company that another person or company may have, it must say the right things both literally, and subconsciously.
Online Marketing / Email Design
Email marketing is a tricky business. Firstly you have to get customers to sign up, secondly you have to get them to open your email, thirdly they have to see a product that they want, and then finally they have to go to your website and actually purchase that product... That's four processes and four opportunities to lose sales. Then, on top of all this a lot of email clients deal with emails differently; rendering fonts at slightly different sizes, stripping out or ignoring certain bits of code, or even just sticking it straight in the spam box.
Due to all these reasons, you really have to know what you're doing in order to create an effective newsletter.
Photography
Good photography can completely change a piece of design work. More often than not it will be the quality of the imagery that transforms a website, or brochure, from something that is quite average into something that's great.
For the relatively minimal cost of shooting your products, premises, or staff professionally, you can lift your branding to new heights, creating much more interesting compositions and striking images than you could have ever hoped for. It is also much more versatile than selecting from a stock library as each image is customised exactly to your preference, and avoids all the complications of the various copyrights imposed by different websites.
Installation Art
Everyone likes to do something a little different every once in a while, and for us, that means mucking about with electronics and code to make interesting art installations that are connected to the Web.
We spend our entire working (and sometimes non-working) life staring at digital representations of our creative ideas, so it's extremely satisfying to make something that you can touch and interact with from time to time.
Motion Graphics / Video
If you're looking for that little something extra to make your marketing campaign or website stand out from the crowd, then a slick piece of motion graphics or a beautifully shot video could just do the trick. With broadband speeds ever increasing it's no longer a problem for the majority of people to view video content on the Web, so if you're looking for a nicely executed website introduction, motion graphics is definitely the way forwards. The software we use is way ahead of Flash when it comes to 3D space, motion filters, and text animation, and can liven up a static page in no time!
