New Work – rhpdrecruit.com

Working with the Rock Hill Police Department has been pretty darn awesome. We collaborated with Officer Trey Amick, in charge of all RHPD recruitment efforts, to create a site that would draw the best and brightest candidates to the Rock Hill police force. Using our creative abilities to help build a safer community for our families, friends and businesses is truly an amazing feeling. A big thanks to the RHPD for making Rock Hill an amazing place to live and work.

New Work – Revolution Clothing

We’re super proud to finally show off months of hard work for Revolution Clothing located at the Epicenter in Uptown Charlotte.

Social partnered with Revolution to fashion a new online shopping experience to expand sales beyond the Queen City. We handled all aspects of design, development, product photography and video as we introduced the brick-and-mortar brand to the world of e-commerce.

The team at Revolution proved to be capable collaborators. Hard at work adding new content daily, they are readily embracing new ideas and technologies to bring their vision to life.

AIGA InShow 2011

This past Friday night we attended the AIGA InShow awards ceremony at the Riverbanks Zoo & Botanical Gardens in Columbia, SC. Contrary to typical design competitions that have a huge category structure with many tiers and multiple awards, InShow’s concept is a simple one: You’re either “In” or you’re “Out.”

The AIGA InShow, a statewide design competition in South Carolina, has built a reputation of being a tough competition and one that designers are eager to have their work selected for. The show, now in its 17th year, began in 1995 with a simple concept of wanting to create an awards show for “designers.”

We ended up bringing home six fluffy pillow cube awards for work across multiple categories including:

There was some amazing work on display and we were honored to be part of the “In” crowd. A big thank you to our clients for trusting us to stretch our creative muscle — these awards are as much for you as they are for us.

Clients From Heaven – AIGA BuzZ

I had the pleasure of being invited to speak at AIGA Charlotte’s monthly BuzZ event on September 7th, 2011. It was great being able to talk openly about a topic that is important to me and our studio. I also enjoyed meeting some new folks and seeing a few familiar faces.

About BuzZ

AIGA Charlotte BuzZ is a meet-up event geared toward Charlotte area creatives and small business owners/employees. Please come join us for coffee as we discuss a different topic each month. Come to learn or come to share the knowledge you already have. Either way, just come see what all the BuzZ is all about.

About the Topic

We work with clients every day. They are the ones who write the checks that keep our doors open. They are the reason we fire up the ol’ Creative Suite day in and day out. Let’s talk about how to create a good client, a client that doesn’t make you cringe when their name pops up on the caller ID. So often, clients are the topic of our complaints but let’s stop complaining and start figuring out ways to to actually enjoy who we work with.
