Happy Birthday Chadster!

Chad and I have been trying to create his site for a looooooong time. I know we will eventually get it done… In the mean time I wanted to post some of the beta tests:

Old Beta: AS2. Neat little slide mechanism for the sections.

Latest Beta: AS3, Away3D…

Broadstreet Digital platform GUI

As part of the exploration process for re-branding Broadstreet Digital (BSD), I was tasked with updating the GUI of their platform. As far as I know this was never implemented internally by BSD’s IT team. The key here was to try to respect the original elements to allow for a quick and easy production of the new GUI. I tried to isolate and match the original images and re-skin existing elements as much as possible. I also tried to allow for most of the update to be CSS based.

In late 2006 STC was commissioned by Arbinet to re-brand and re-design their site. As part of the exercise, I was asked to design some of the comps that were to be submitted to the client for review. Although these were rejected, I think they are cool enough to make it here…

What’s with the flying cows?

Flying cow render

Flying cow render

Originally created for Great Spirits (now Castle Brands). This exploration was to be used to support the launch of a new Irish Cream drink. Can’t remember how we (STC’s brains) arrived at the flying cow idea, but I executed on it and did a quick model and renders in Lightwave. Although the idea didn’t “fly” with the client, I kept the flying cow as a visual element of wemakedotcoms. The original cow had green patches.
