This Site

Bluedette is the design portfolio of an aspiring digital designer named Adrianne Marie. This site contains some of her best work, primarily from her past class projects as well as for her personal pleasure. She hopes to have a chance to actually enter in the digital designing field, whether if it was from web designing, graphic designing, or anything that is digitally creative. For now, this is a display of her works, as well as her small side business as a freelancer.

Hello & Welcome!

New (Temporary) Job

05.08.2008 @ 1133PDT :: General

Starting next week on May 12th I will be starting a new job as a web developer/production artist at a high-profile communications and networking company. This does not mean that I will not be accepting any freelance job from any potential clients. It just means that I might take longer in finishing these projects because of this particular reason. Even if that was the case I'll make sure that I do get these projects done at the time allowed.

So, when you do decide to hire me to create your designing projects, be sure to keep this in mind and decide wisely in terms of when you want these projects completed. If you like, we can contact and negotiate these issues that would work for both of us. I'm open to suggestions.

 

FCA Design (New Commissioned Project)

04.30.2008 @ 0140PDT :: Projects

As of early this month I have been hired by an ongoing local architectural firm to create their business website and possibly some print-related graphic designs, but until now, nothing is yet final. The firm had gone through some major changes from renaming of the business and such that the project has been postponed until everything has been cleared. As of now we only managed to have a domain name registered and a web hosting account purchased. So far I have only put up a "coming soon" page with a temporary company logo that I quickly made for it, so that once the domain name has been activated, at least it's not a broken link.

That's all for the time being. I'm going along with the same pace as the firm so all of us would be on the same pace at this point.

 

Upcoming New Layout

04.19.2008 @ 0718PDT :: Upcoming

What...? Already...? After what... two weeks...?

Maybe it's because of the fact that I found some inspiration after going through sites at YoursiteNU and Perfection Gallery. After looking at it for a long time I noticed how "bland" it looks. I admit, I didn't really put much effort in this site simply because I didn't have much inspiration, but now that I have, I'm seriously going to plan out how the site is going to look like.

Afterwards, I may find more inspiration on the content portion of it too. What I mean to say is... more artwork...

 

My Neighborhood: A Photography Project

04.18.2008 @ 1251PDT :: Upcoming, Projects

Starting sometime tomorrow or probably next week (from today's date) I will spend some time walking around my neighborhood, taking pictures. For some apparent reason I just feel like I need to somehow... "express" myself. While I'm currently working on my very first Wordpress template for my personal site/blog I thought that another way that I should express myself through sites is basically taking pictures of it.

Just a short little upcoming news that I thought of somewhat in the last minute. Besides, I really do need to get out of the house and get active one of these days, you know?

Once I get all these photographs finished I will be sure to post them up in the Photographics Gallery (under Portfolio > Photography or simply go directly here.

 

Navy Blue Background

04.15.2008 @ 0739PDT :: General

Due to my "negative reviews" @ YoursiteNU, I decided to change the shade of the blue. I admit it looks a lot better with the navy blue than the blue that I used when I first launched this very simplistic layout and the text is a lot clearer and more legible to read.

Should I call this Bluedette ver. 2.1?
