This section of our website — divided into print, web and audio—does not require much explanation. We think that our work speaks for itself.
What you will notice is that we have an extensive selection in the print section, compared with only a couple of examples from web and audio. The print covers a wide variety of works, ranging from point of purchase displays and packaging to logo designs, magazine layouts and artwork for the marketing of corporate identities.
Our print pieces reflect our belief that sharp text combined with original graphics form the basis for successful artistry on a commercial level, be it in print, web, or video. A good radio commercial also requires a novel concept and a good script.
Many people seem to have lost sight of the fact that the written word — not technological wizardry — is still the basis of good form and order in every medium, including the web.
For example, when you watch a movie, you may not be aware of the fact that a screenplay or a script was done before the video was shot. In fact, some of the most memorable movies ever made have been based on the ultimate example of the written word — the Bible, which many people think is the greatest story ever told.
Our involvement with Exceptional Family, a quarterly print magazine aimed at the community of caregivers for children with cognitive challenges, began in the fall of 2005 when graphic designer Karen Boor gave the new publication a distinctive, colorful patina. Unfortunately, the Miriam Foundation ceased publication of this fine magazine in the spring of 2011 due to what it said were financial considerations.
On the audio portion of our portfolio, we have included two very original radio commercials we created — one in 1999 for Decarie Square shopping mall, which at that time was known as Decor Decarie, and one in 2000 for the English Montreal School Board, which was promoting its adult education courses for mature students who might want to register for vocational courses.
