Cinevolve Studios Website
By Jim Fisher | October 22, 2008
We’re constantly updating the Cinevolve Studios site, because the team over there is kicking some serious butt, finding great new independent films and documentaries to add to their already-impressive lineup.

Axis of Evil Comedy Tour Website
By Jim Fisher | April 12, 2008
Sadly, the Axis of Evil Comedy group has disbanded. With the group went the complete flash website, recently replaced by a stripped-down version linking to the individual comics’ sites. We have placed the original site on our server to allow you to see it as it was meant to be seen.

Lip Service Wallpapers
By Mich Fisher | March 21, 2008
How could I resist the opportunity to jump to my Wacom and channel my creative id into blending kick-ass styles from the Lip Service Spring 2008 collection with some groovy graphics and photos to make themed wallpapers for the desktops of all the Lippy junkies out there (myself included … my Mac sports Psycho Circus)? All wallpapers are available to download in 3 sizes at the Lip Service blog.
First is my favorite group in the current collection, Psycho Circus Act III.

To create the scene, I used fabric swatches from the group for the tent material, created fire and tail effects to enhance the original photos of the model, added some other minor effects, and drew banner and sign graphics with a circus feel.
Next up is Punk and Disorderly, one of Lip Service’s long-standing classics.

Here, I used a bar scene to give Katia a suitable backdrop and integrated the two models with a bar door for a fun pseudo-advert (one of my favorite hobbies).
Rockabilly Rumble was more of a graphic challenge, similar to Psycho Circus.

I envisioned 50’s snapshots with the model bursting out from their confines. Using some stock as well as my own photography, I gave the Rockabilly model, Monica Renee, backdrops which mirror the edgy retro feel of that style group. One fun side-note: Lippy’s Booze & Pool is being played by Johnny’s, a kick-ass HB rockabilly punk dive we love.
The last wallpaper is for the Stretch Fuck’n Twill group, one which crosses into several styles but is all dark.

The designers gave me a lot to work with by having Mary Jane’s pose with the battle axe. I pictured her as a dark sentry, guarding the grave of some evil wizard, cursed king, or some such. Yes, I have an overactive imagination, but … that’s what they pay me for, so what the hell. The only challenge to creating the graphic was finding a graveyard photo spooky and foreboding enough and creating ample room for three Mary Janes.

Lip Service Website
By Mich Fisher | March 1, 2008
After months of planning, design, and collaboration with the database team, the new Lip Service website is live at last! So, also at last, we can formally announce here that we are the new WebMasters (or in my case WebMistress) of Lip-Service.com and show you what we’ve been doing for the past few months without detracting from the actual site launch.
To provide a bit of background, Lip Service is one of the most well-known and respected niche clothing manufacturers in the industry. They had a website, but it had not been updated in quite a long time. We visited them to talk about something else entirely and, after a few conversations, wound up working closely with the database programmers and Drew Bernstein (the owner, founder, and all-around groovy cat) to completely update, streamline and improve everything about the site and e-commerce operations. We created the new concept and look, while adding new customer-friendly functionality and streamlining the existing site features. We’ve also added a rather ambitious blog-style community and features page with articles, photo features and video we’ve produced, as well as customer-driven features such as a jukebox and photo contests.
The first sample I’ve included is the Home page, a flash animation introducing the new navigation, based on Lip Service’s five style divisions.

The next sample is one of the division pages. The old site had navigation which involved an unwieldy drop-down menu to go to individual style groups in the collection. We improved the experience by using a large view screen to preview groups with a roll-over which makes it easier for shoppers to select preferred styles from the online catalog. We also added a features bar, which shows community information as well as videos premiering on the site. The other main site feature we added is the Soundtrack, which plays songs submitted by the community and promotes emerging bands in various genres of interest to Lip Service customers.

Below is the Style page, which provides details about individual garments in the collection. Here, we’ve given a larger area to view the styles, as well as an additional view window. Future improvements, including a Zoom feature, are in the works.

The last sample is the front page of the Community and Features section. The page itself is an extremely tweaked blog we created using WordPress, with rotating flash callouts and a host of articles and features. At present, we provide all content for the blog, including videos, behind the scenes photo journals and extras such as downloadable wallpapers (which will be included here in different posts).
