Your Colorscape

What do film palettes have to do with web design? Quite a lot, I think. When I first work with you, I’m interested in the colorscape of your life and vocation. How can we bring that into the design?

I’ve been away from writing here. Days are full. Finally, though, I’ve decided to put together a small email list for those who’d like to know when a new entry’s published. I aim for monthly—usually, it’s less. If I change the format or frequency, you’ll be the first to know and can stay for as long as you wish.

You’ll also get a head start on seeing the brief style questionnaire that I give new clients—it includes a link to the stunning colors of several iconic films. We’d have to simplify for our medium of course, but they’re a great starting-off point.

If you’d like that, head to the footer.

Chances are, you’ll have a large banner photo introducing the site (though not all sites need one). Choose your cinematographer (photographer) carefully. Be sure s/he is capable of creating the look you want. Take a look at their portfolio. Consider your closet, and where the photo session’s going to be. The quality, color, and atmosphere of your (around 2500 px)-width) banner photo will make a crucial difference.

When your look, art/service, and message are unified, you’ll multiply your impact. Exponentially.
