I am excited to share a little look at my design process at Moxie Pear. As a web designer, I do a lot of research on a clients business based on the creative questionnaire they submit to me. Sometimes, this can take a few hours or a few days. From there, I get to start on the fun part…sketching out the wireframe. This is my favorite part of the whole process because it’s when I can see the design really start to come to life. I have a grid notebook that is only used for web design and it’s filled with ideas and sample designs. I love going back every now and then and seeing what I have done. Some ideas pan out and some are completely different by the time I start designing them in Photoshop. I love this process so much that I set out last year to make a fun stop motion video to show my clients part of the process in real time (so to speak). My son actually took all of the photos and I did the editing. Since he is older (13 now), it is nice to be able to include him in my work..and he had a blast picking the music and seeing it in action. Hope you enjoy!
