Zompire Dracularius

What is a Zompire Dracularius? Well, simply put, it's a mix between a zombie & a vampire who enjoys terrorizing any town it sets foot in. Why am I putting this on my blog? It's for my class and each student must create a website containing the words Zompire Dracularius and try to make it the first site to show up on google or just be able to get it noticed on google. I need more hits for my site. Please help me out! Thank you! :)

Graphics Standards Manual

This is my Standards Manual and I hope you like it. Nothing much to say other than I wanted to stick with the green as my background instead of using the tinted colors. I think it makes it look much more professional. The last page is the back cover. Have a great summer!

System App. updates

I have made some changes again for the Wavesa home page. Instead of having the 3 program images visible once the page is opened, there will be 3 tabs, 1 for each program, located at the bottom of the page and as you scroll over each tab, the image will pop up. The button that links to the program page will be the tab, but including the image was something I wanted to keep, but was asked to display it in a different way.

The 3 program pages I wanted to have the same format, but using the different colors that go with each program. The bar link is at the bottom of each page so the viewer can link back to the home page or view the rest of the pages, for the site, from every page. This is what I have so far. My manual will be up soon, still making a few more tweaks to it.

As for the introduction page, I am leaving that as is. So, the image of it, posted on May 1st, is final.

intro. page updated

Once you click on the symbol to enter site, the wordmark and white rectangular shape will disappear and the home page will appear.

Home Page updated

My home page needed some serious work and I think it looks much better. The symbols on the upper right corners for each program rectangle are the buttons that link to that programs own page. I was told that having the programs upfront would be the best way to go.

home page

I'm thinking of adding something, such as an animal, on the left side because it seems to be too much empty space. Maybe even adding something below the text in the middle space. Other than that, this is what I got.

Programs page

For the programs page, I wanted to keep the symbol pattern going and placed them in two of the four corners. For the program buttons, I incorporated each image into the symbol.

Graphic Standards Manual- cover page

Alright, so I forgot we needed one rough idea of our Graphic Standards Manual, so here is the cover for mine. I will post more later today/tonight as I have been focusing mainly on getting my system application up to speed.

Wags & Wavesa Plan Page

So, this is a mock up page for the Wags & Wavesa page and I wanted to somehow incorporate the symbol in a unique pattern, but not sure if this is the right way to position it. any suggestions on what's working and what's not? Also, other ideas for a symbol pattern and which position on the page it fits best. As you will see, there are no plans added to the page just yet. I will have those added a.s.a.p. Thanks :)

Intro. Page

It's a clean and simple intro. page and I wanted it to be this way. The way to enter the site is by clicking on the symbol.

System Application Ideas

For those who do not know what I plan on creating, I'm making a mock website for my company, Wavesa. I will focus on creating an (enter site) page, a page for one of the 3 programs with the plans they provide, probably a page for the comparison of my competitors pricing to mine. Also, I would like to make a page that shows how the video web chat would look like as well as the home page. That's what I'm going for and I will have images up later.

Inspiration for Graphic Standards Manual

It was a little difficult finding really good inspirational manual images, but I came across this boomerang manual and it is simple and easy to follow. It has all the images needed for each page and has a clear index as to what these images are telling us without using much text. I was drawn to it most because it barely had any text and relies more on visuals rather than balancing image with description. It is effective and I think it could work with my company. The UNBC image was another interesting manual because it doesn't use too much text either to explain everything about the uses of the logo and fonts, etc. It condenses the information down, from the image provided, into one sheet of paper. I want my manual to be easy to use and easy to follow and these images are great for what I'm going for. Simple is better than trying to do too much with the layout and function of the manual.

last batch..

These are just some collection cards for the pet owners who sign up with us. These are included in the folder.

some more..

I wanted to create something for our customers once they sign up online with our company. I created folders for each program and in it will include the accordion booklet, 3 big cards(for collection) magnet, business card and a welcome card. You will also see the inside of the folder that contains the same pattern of what I included in my accordion. I did not want to leave the inside blank. The welcome card is just something for the customer once they sign up for our insurance.

Some Changes and new additions...

The back of the business cards I changed a little bit, but not too much because the layout I think works well as do the colors. The envelopes I made a little bigger and I added a 2nd one with an image applied to the front of the envelope. It was suggested to add an image so it would connect with my business cards and other elements I added. The letterhead has changed quite a bit and it looks more professional and connects with my other systems. The signature is not on the image, but there is a signature on my printed letterheads. The accordion booklet is included in the folders I created for when customers sign up with our company. It gives basic information about the 3 programs, a brief introduction for our new customers, the location of our company and what is included on our website. The layout of it, I wanted to incorporate the angle of the W in some of the pages because I use it in on the envelope and also because it is a part of my company wordmark. The angle shape is unique and adds to my identity. I think it also creates nice movement for each layout. Oh,, and after seeing Jen's design background last Monday, I decided to add a backside that contained multiples of my symbol and have one that sticks out. The spot has no meaning, but I think it is visually pleasing. I also incorporated this design to my folders.

Some updates

I decided to to an accordion to add in my folder instead of an actual booklet and I made it small as well as the folder. I have my business cards done. All have been updated and I will post the images once I have finished everything.

envelope

I will be making a website for my company and incorporate these designs in it somehow.

This envelope is only one of a few sketches I am working with, but wanted to get peoples reaction on this one and I can bring in print outs of other designs for Monday.

Letterhead 1 idea

This is one of a few ideas I sketched out, but wanted to know anyone's thoughts on this one because it does not incorporate the curve of the W. I decided to work with circular shapes.

business cards (front & back)

The images are for the front of the business card and the information is for the back of the business card. I decided to incorporate the pet owner as well because I felt it would be important to include them. I think I will still work on where to place the symbol for the front of the business card, but for now this is what I have come up with. thanks :)
