UNCW Film Studies

Snow's Cut Monthly

We can rebuild it – that was our mantra going into the Snow's Cut Monthly project.

Publisher Janet Hoffer was looking to upgrade her magazine's web site and have the ability to manage online content internally.

We redid the site using a custom-themed Content Management System and now site updates are managed by the magazine's staff.

UNCW Film Studies

UNCW Film Studies

We recently launched a redesigned version of the UNCW Film Studies department.

The site was built using Macromedia Contribute software so that the department can manage and update the web site based on pre-definied styles and design platforms.

The UNCW Film Studies department wanted a web site that better reflected their style as filmmakers and film critics.

old books on front street

Old Books on Front St.

Old Books on Front Street was purchased from Mr. Daughtry and the new owners decided to build a web site for the store.

The resulting site utilizes a custom back-end content management system so that the new shop owners will have total control over their web site -- all via the web browser.

The site features a newsletter, integrated blog, customer of the week section and editable pages. Check for more additions soon (forum, gallery, events calendar, etc.)!

Yannick Murphy

Yannick Murphy was kind enough to let us redesign her web site, www.yannickmurphy.com.

Yannick is the author of "Stories in Another Language," "The Sea of Trees" and "Here They Come."

Her newest book, "Here They Come," is availble from McSweeney's books.

". . . Murphy's gorgeous third book of fiction [HERE THEY COME] recounts the story of a poor family's coming-of-age in 1970's New York . . . Murphy creates a world as magical and harrowing as the struggle to come to grips with maturity."

Starred Review, Publisher's Weekly Magazine

Buy "Here They Come" from McSweeney's.

Ecotone: Reimagining Place

Ecotone is a UNC-Wilmington literary journal produced by their creative writing department.

We redesigned the site with a modern, user-friendly look and feel and gave the department the ability to self-update the site.

From Ecotone:
Much of our best writing grows out of the land. More specifically, it grows from rich, overlapping areas, those unstable, uncategorizable places that aren’t one thing or another. Biological ecotones are areas of great species diversity and biological density, of intense life and death; literary ecotones are the places where words come most alive.

Cocaine Angel

Cocaine Angel

Cocaine angel is an independent film that was filmed in Jacksonville, FL and we just happened to do the poster for it.

From the Village Voice: First-time director Michael Tully's convincingly grimy Cocaine Angel goes a long way toward rescuing the addiction drama from junkie stereotypes and self-help clichés, thanks in no small part to star/screenwriter Damian Lahey, whose shambling presence is well matched by his gift for free-ranging monologues."

Level 5 at City Stage

Level 5 at City Stage

The job we took on for Level 5 was to redesign their previous web site into something stylish and usable. The redesign was a well-received success with both staff and viewers.

Unfortunately Level 5 has stopped paying their hosting bill and the site is no longer viewable at the original domain. You can view the site as hosted from our domain, or call Level 5 and complain.

The Level 5 site is back in business! Thanks to Audra for getting it back online.
