#30Days2Beta – A New Deutsch Website Is Coming

taylor — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 17:00:12 +0000

Over at Deutsch right now there is a group of computer geeks hunched over there computers while being filmed for the entire world to see on-demand. Why you may ask? To build the brand new Deutsch website in 30 days – while the whole world watches.

Luckily I am not one of the people on display – but you will see my mark on this phase of the project. Over the last week or two I worked with the team to build the #30days2beta countdown page which contains the live stream of our worker bees and a twitter feed so you can heckle them.

Visit http://deutschinc.com in the next 23 days to take part in the fun.

Update 12/1: You can see the ongoing discussion about the 30Days2Beta project here.

Academy Feature: Out of this World!

We just completed some really fun work on our most recent web feature at The Academy. I designed this landing page with inspiration from, you guessed it… 1950′s Sci-Fi Classics!

Out of this World! is a collection of images from the creepiest, funniest and just plain weird mid-century thrillers. So if you love vintage alien movies, head over to Oscars.org to check out some awesome movie posters, production stills and a mini-feature on the making of “Forbidden Planet.”

Private Ballet Los Angeles is an organization dedicated to providing high level classical ballet instructions for adults. They need a site that would dance circles around the competition – so they came to me for help with custom WordPress theme modifications.

As a small business entrepreneur, I often have to hire consultants and collaborators for my business and I can firmly say Taylor is one of the most effective I have worked with. Building a new website can be a stressful, overwhelming endeavor and Taylor streamlined this process. She responded to questions immediately, with great solutions. Taylor kept me informed on all progress and I could not imagine how my project could have possibly been completed faster. I plan on working with Taylor again in the near future.

Taylor has the eye of an artist and the coding skills of an artisan. She’s extremely thorough and detail oriented, and her feedback on strategic and promotional issues was always spot on. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any of my colleagues or clients.

ASPIRE! is a non-profit organization devoted to helping individuals move along the path to spiritual awakening. When they decided the old Aspire website was in need of a “breath of spirt,” they called me. This newly enlightened website was actualized with the help of the Light of Peace theme along with some structural guidance from yours truly. Namaste!
