So excited for the premiere of the Elsewhereville book trailer on YouTube Sunday, February 20th at 2:00pm Eastern time.

The author is my friend Melanie J. Vogel, Children’s Book Author. She writes lovely kids books about acceptance, and in Elsewhereville, "where different is divine," "fitting out is way more fun than fitting in."

This was the first big project produced by CranberryJade Services with the talents of William Jamieson! I'm so very pleased with how it turned out.

William is available for all sorts of audiovisual projects: www.jamiesonAV.net

And as I get back into a personal routine, I would love to take on another production project through CJS.

It's a good idea to periodically review what apps are installed on your phone and what permissions those apps have.

You can also review apps that have permissions via Facebook, too!

CJS’s first design project was completed in April 2021 for Developmental Support Associates LLC. They needed to update their current marketing materials for an important presentation on a tight deadline.

The S and Q in the SummerQuest logo were the starting point for inspiration. After talking with the clients, I asked graphic designer Andrea Contaldi (andreacontaldi.com) to create a marketing flyer that represented the fantastical theme of the SummerQuest online group classes. We created an A and B version with alternate text for targeted audiences. The pictured flyer was used at the presentation. The other version will be used at a later date.

A serif font (New Rocker) was chosen to represent the medieval time period and resonate with the elements of the dragon such as the sharp claws and pointy teeth. For legibility, a similar font (Rajdhani) is utilized for the informational text. The font again has a tall and narrow structure, which pairs well with the header font. The ad copy is targeted at organizational clients. A muted monochromatic color palette was selected to create a strong, classical feel along with open-source imagery.

Another case to watch!

"The Zuckerberg Empire" is frequently a shorthand used when discussing a client's social media platform footprint: Facebook + Instagram + WhatsApp.

These are also the first platforms owner Tiffany A. Santos took a "deep dive" into during the spring, learning the in's and out's of the parameters specific to each and how they are integrated, making consults specifically tailored to the needs of each client. She also completed industry research and reviewed metrics from reputable reporting agencies.

Recent changes to Messenger, specifically the removal of the "chat head" feature, make is less of a freestanding app, but she included Messenger as a subapplication.

This is a very sad case involving Snapchat and two of its third-party apps.

The suit cites research on the effects of cyberbullying but also argues that Snap, Yolo, and LMK "failed to live up to their terms of service and other commitments to users."

A lawsuit filed against the maker of Snapchat and two apps, YOLO and LMK, that use its platform, alleges the apps present an unreasonable risk of harm.

Had a consult with an author friend today about getting her books more attention, and I stumbled upon this idea!
