Our attention to detail and commitment to excellence always ensures a quality job.

Whether you are in need of a web site design or redesign, print based graphics, graphics for multimedia, or all of the above–we can help. Our goal over the years has been to learn as much about graphic design as possible. Our diverse expertise allows us to be better designers, since one area of expertise often compliments the other.

Web Design & Development
We offer a broad package in the web design and development arena. Here are some of the services we provide:

  • Strategic planning
  • Assistance with domain name registration
  • Assistance with hosting

We know the importance of a good website, and we are very serious about quality. The way in which we succeed and exceed our clients’ expectations is through attentive listening, careful planning and adherence to best practices. Whether you are interested in creating a new web presence or enhance an existing website—we aim to exceed expectations.

At Creative Turbine, we listen closely to the needs and requirements of our clients, and thereby help define the direction and goals of their website. This direction may come about through a variety of methods: competitive analysis, user research, information architecture, iterative user interface design via low-fidelity schematics and finally high-fidelity mockups. Of course this robust planning process may not be appropriate for all projects but we mention it here to describe our ideal process.

If you do not yet have a domain name or hosting service we can help get you started. We can also work with large organizations on existing sites within pre-defined guidelines. While many design firms do not support the development of websites—we do, and we can get you up and running and also provide maintenance to keep you up and running.

Our goal is to make you look great, give you the competitive edge, and please the users of your website, all the while making responsible, sustainable, universal design decisions.

User Interface Design
We offer the following services in the User Interface arena:

  • Assistance with business requirements gathering and/or analysis
  • Competitive analysis
  • User research
  • Personas & scenarios
  • Information architecture (sitemaps, process flows, logical groupings)
  • Wireframes
  • Mockups
  • Storyboards

User Interface design addresses optimal usability of web pages. Can users find what they are looking for quickly with little cognitive and physical effort? Is the information they seek categorized appropriately? Is the text legible and can blind users interact with the site? What about people with low-bandwidth or small screen resolution? What is the page sequence and user experience of complex websites that involve multi-step tasks? How are these steps defined? These are just a few questions that user interface design addresses.

We base our design decisions on best practices from a number of overlapping fields, including, interaction design, information architecture, user-centered design and business analysis. The result is a usable website that is intuitive and accessible to everyone.

Multimedia
We offer a number of service in the multimedia arena, here are a few:

  • Off/On-site media accumulation, editing and finishing
  • DVD, VCD, CD-ROM, DV, Beta SP, VHS, and SVHS Mastering
  • Quality graphics and special effects
  • Video encoding for the web in a multitude of formats
  • Streaming video implementation and consultation
  • Content embedding and website integration
  • Professional photography and image optimization

As a general rule, the more you compress video, the more quality you compromise. When we "capture" or transfer the video from the source, we do not need to compress it. Uncompressed "capture" or transfer of the video results in an unmatched clear, crisp, rich output. We have invested heavily into top of the line, cutting edge technology that allows us to transfer the video directly into the computer as it is on the original, without altering the quality whatsoever! A delight indeed for those obsessed with quality.

We take great pride in our work. In order for us to achieve satisfaction, it must be PERFECT!
