  • Creating A Workback Schedule

    What’s A Workback Schedule? A Workback Schedule is a useful method that reveals the milestones that a project will have to meet. It forces you to think about what a successful project will look like, and the steps you will have to take to get there. Why Use A Workback Schedule? Creating a Workback can […]

  • What is content anyway?

    Some time ago, I had a discussion via Twitter with Roz Allen (@therozblog) about exactly what it is content on the web. Is it text, photos, video? You can catch our conversation here: https://twitter.com/kemosite/status/200696329880604672 As someone who has worked extensively with multiple media forms, I have seen that content is not limited to any one format […]

  • Inverse and Complimentary Colours

    Here’s a post I never got around to finishing. Kind of surprising considering it’s a pretty simple concept.

  • Social Media isn’t supposed to be complicated, people…

    Admittedly, I haven’t had a blog in a while. Shame on me, I know, but it’s true. Anyways, I’m getting back into the game. So naturally, one of the first things I look up is how to integrate my blog with my Facebook, Twitter, and all my other online profiles. Holy cluster-crunch Batman! I’m not […]

  • I know, I know…

    Very convincing huh? Here I am, a pretty knowledgeable and competent designer, and all I’ve got to show for it is a default WordPress installation… I know, I know… I’m working on it!
