Understanding Is Key To A Good Design
When we first meet with you we want to take some time to understand your business. We believe a good design solution is only possible if we have some understanding of what you are and what you want to be. We don't charge for our consultations - just actual development time. This model supports our open communication philosophy and a desire to work with you, not just for you.
No Surpises
Regardless of the deliverable, Shore Fx will document the proposed design and deliver this together with a formal schedule. If we believe it will help the mutual understanding of a project, we can create some simple prototypes to demonstrate design ideas and prompt feedback. These are particularly useful to show how interactive elements of a web site or a graphical user interface on a software application will work.
Project Management
Shore Fx has experience with managing multi-national projects with a large number of resources and deliverables. We will leverage this industry experience to provide you with a clear and predictable project plan. For large projects, we will show you critical paths, manage dynamic dependencies and plan for phased deliveries if necessary to meet critical deadlines. We will update you regularly to review project progress. This close communication allows you to influence development directionand ensure we remain aligned throughout the project life cycle.
Artwork
A critical element that contributes to the quality and professional appearance of a web site is the graphic artwork. If you have existing electronic artwork or hardcopy brochures they can be re-used for online content within a web site. We can also work together with your in-house or external graphic artist. If you are starting from scratch we have experience creating original graphic artwork and photographic based artwork using Adobe Photoshop and Flash. We can take digital pictures of your product if you have no existing images. We also have access to large libraries of professional artwork for minimal cost.
