Professional Design

Professional design is a hallmark of successful businesses. Attractive, well-organized design (both on and offline) boosts consumer confidence, increases ease-of-use, and is proven to increase sales.

At Metal Toad Media, a powerful concept comes first, after which our talented professionals create the individual pieces needed to achieve the overall goal of the project (while simultaneously maintaining the client's vision).

When talking about design, we generally focus on three different areas:

1. Logo/Corporate Branding
2. Interface Design (Web & CD)
3. Animation

Logo/Corporate Branding

Before any sort of product or site is created for a company, they must have a strong corporate identity. Internally, this includes direction and goals; visually, this is represented through a logo and visual corporate identity. A good corporate logo should be bold and unmistakable, regardless of color or the number of times sent through a fax machine; a great corporate logo should also communicate something about the company.

Interface Design

Professional web design or designing for multimedia is very different from the kind of static design that is done for print media. Although typography and color treatment are still key, there are a number of additional factors that have to be taken into consideration:

1. Who will be using the interface and what are they trying to do?
2. How does a user navigate from point A to point B?
3. What is the best way to visually represent the information being accessed?

Animation

Animation can be a great tool when trying to represent a company or product as dynamic and fresh. Because new media (web, CD, etc) is dynamic, it's possible to showcase your company dynamically using animation. Metal Toad Media not only has experience in new and traditional animation using Flash and AfterEffects, but we are also adept at high-end Flash programming using ActionScript.
