<p>We are pleased to announce that WDA will be working with Boulder Soupworks to redesign their website. BSW soups are locally made, organic pre-packaged soups that you can now find at Whole Foods. We are excited to be able to put our stamp on this up and coming brand.</p>
<p>Adding to the sizzle of this project is that we are partnering with a Boulder-based graphic designer Kelly Wengert (<a href="http://www.dashofhotsauce.com">www.dashofhotsauce.com</a>). Kelly has worked on several high-end design and branding projects, and we look forward to partnering with her on this project.</p>
<p>Keep your eyes open for the completed Boulder Soupworks website in our portfolio in mid-April. And swing on over to Whole Foods stores in Boulder or Superior to check out the soup while you&#8217;re at it! I tried the roasted tomato basil last night, and it was excellent.</p>

<p>In addition to design work and  training here at WDA, I often teach web design courses at <a href="http://www.compuskills.com">CompuSkills</a>, a subsidiary of <a href="http://www.freeu.com">Colorado Free University</a>. The Free University concept is focused on continuing adult education and enrichment, and is a very community-driven organization. So after a year and a half of teaching for them, we&#8217;re excited to be taking on a redesign and reimplementation of the official CompuSkills website.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll be using WordPress as a CMS (again!), allowing the internal staff to manage content. Mostly, it&#8217;s just a site that needs some refreshing to bring it up to date with the times and with their branding. This is a fun project to take on, and you should see it hitting the portfolio by the beginning of March.</p>

<p>Premier Image Agency is a full-service, nationwide modeling and promotions agency headquartered in Denver, Colorado. Premier Image wanted a complete overhaul &#8211; so we gave it to them! We started with the logo design, then moved on to a new site design concept. Included in the site is a database management system built in Django (a web framework based on Python) that allows all of their models to create an account and upload their information, including a photo uploader. Also included is a front booking selection system for their clients &#8211; simply click the &#8220;Book Me&#8221; button to begin the process of booking a model for your tradeshow, fashion show, or advertising campaign! The final piece is a blog that allows Premier Image to showcase their models and events. The site is already gaining traction and attention, with hundreds of models signed up with viewable profiles.</p>
<p>This site combined HTML/CSS with Django and Django&#8217;s templating system, a MySQL database, as well as some flash objects and javascript behaviours. </p>

<p>Premier Image Agency is a national modeling and promotions agency based here in Denver. The new website is not just a website, but a manager and booking engine for the database for all the models, stylists, and photographers they represent. We were able to redesign the entire brand for PIA &#8211; starting with the logo, and then both the front and back ends of the website. The site is built on Django 1.0, and includes a model registration/submission system, online contract signing, photo uploads, and a booking/direct messaging system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, it&#8217;s not exactly complete, but we&#8217;re almost there! You&#8217;ll find that many of the content areas are complete, and many of them just have placeholders. Hang with us, as the design is pretty much complete, minus a few tweaks. The content will be getting dropped in over the next week. The first thing to check out is the <a href="/design-portfolio/">Design Portfolio</a>. Right now you&#8217;ll find a short list of our most recent clients, which also happens to be some of the work we&#8217;re most proud of. As the rest of the site content goes in, we&#8217;ll be completing that portfolio with some more work samples and a full list of our corporate trianing clients as well.</p>
<p>Thanks for being patient &#8211; we know that many companies don&#8217;t like to launch incomplete sites, but we thought it better to show that we&#8217;re making progress than to leave the placeholder up forever. While things are being complete, as always, you can contact us via our <a href="/contact/">Contact Page</a>.</p>
