- My Last Day at Sitewire
-
For the past year and seven months I have been happily employed at Sitewire, an interactive marketing agency in Tempe. I spent my time there initially as their front end architect and flash developer but eventually fell into the role of lead designer. The experience has been great.

- A New Face For Sitewire.
-
I’m proud today to announce that we have finally finished putting enough spit and polish onto the new Sitewire web page that it’s ready for public attention. I handled all of the design, flash work, and html/css development while balancing other projects brought to me within Sitewire. The experience has been hectic at times but overall unique. For example, during the design phase of the project I wasn’t allowed to work in the office so I worked remotely from nearby coffee shops around town. Even more interesting - we rented truckloads of photography and lighting equipment and converted our office kitchen into a makeshift photo studio to do a staff-wide photo shoot as we didn’t have the time or the budget to accomplish at a professional studio.
A lot of things happened simultaneously during this project. Design concepts and brainstorming were being developed the same time as messaging and copy. This made both phases of the project a little less efficient from a time perspective but much more collaborative as both design inspired new copy and new copy inspired new ideas for design. Though things felt a bit hectic at times, I’m fairly pleased with the final result. The site is a bit heavy, but overall it’s pretty solid. So with that being said I present to you the new Sitewire.com. Take a look and share your thoughts whenever you get a chance.
