Brief. Concept. Fire!
Unfortunately, sometimes it looks a little more like: “Brief. Worry. Concept. Stress. Uh, fire?” It’s a shame when the hustle, and the stress of the advertising world stands in the way of creating really great work. Sometimes all your campaign needs is a fresh mind unburdened by the stress of the 37 rounds of revisions that you’ve already been through with the client.

This is a microsite I created for the Australian release of the Night at the Museum movie. 20th Century Fox wanted a site that reflected the fun quirky character of the movie, and offered the opportunity to win free tickets and other prizes, and watch clips. This site succeeded in capturing information from a large number of visitors, and driving an unexpectedly large number of visitors to the main movie site. Fox was more than happy with the final product.

Connect-ED
This is part of a much larger user interface system I redesigned for the Connect-ED school to parent communication system. The challenge of this project was to take the functionality of a highly complex system, and adapt it to a friendly user-interface that school administrators could manage with ease. Before tackling the redesign, I held extensive meetings with customer support representatives to determine the main areas users were getting stuck on the current system. Ultimately, the redesign was a huge success, and was praised endlessly by users of the system.)
