Amethyst Bay Magazine Advertisement
Print Media
Client
Amethyst Bay Resort and Spa and Southern New Hampshire University
Role
Student
Clients Problem
Amethyst Bay Resort & Spa is located on the Caribbean Island of St. Thomas. Amethyst Bay needed a magazine print ad created to reach out to new and existing customers.
Strategy and Concept
The Amethyst Bay Resort & Spa Banner and Magazine Advertisement provide the opportunity to show my understanding of different color names needed for digital and print publications. RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) and CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black) get used to creating the proper output for the magazine advertisement online and in print. Copyrights got considered when selecting images and applied using ethical industry standards. I submitted the projects to the client for review and implement changes based on feedback and the audience's needs.

Client
Desperate Times Brewery and Southern New Hampshire University
Role
Student
Clients Problem
Desperate Times Brewery needed a website makeover targeting intended audiences, using heuristics, user experience testing, market research, and personas. Their home page was the page that received the makeover. No other pages received a makeover during the project, but they can receive a makeover when time permits.
Strategy and Concept
The Virtual User Solution for Desperate Times Brewery demonstrates a better user experience for a customer. A user experience and heuristics evaluation got completed to determine ways to improve a user experience. User personas and scenarios enhanced the website. A design brief communicated the project's objective, target, competitors, key message, consumer benefits, attitude, call to action, and timeline. Low and high-fidelity prototypes got used to explaining details to the client and implementing feedback for a better user experience.

Create a photographic essay that communicates a message or theme with a series of photographs. No words or captions may get used to help communicate the intended message.
