A creative web site portfolio for a journalist and screenwriter,
Mary Claire Kendall:

 


(Created, Winter, 2002)

This is a creative portfolio web site that I designed for a friend who is a professional writer/journalist. The catalyst for the site was a screenplay that she wrote. The graphics on the site were designed to complement the theme of her screenplay, as images of roses set against filmstrips, which serve as icons for each of the navigation sections. It uses a theatrical red and black color scheme, and a font that resembles script handwriting — as if the author's own pen were used. The front page is designed to look like a movie poster, with a single red rose, the author's name at the top, and the navigation of the site below, which is highlighted with a red script on a white background. The screenplay section of the site, which is password-protected, also has a similar cover page, with a slightly different navigation and some additional graphics.
