What a year it has been. 2020 was unusual in a lot of ways. At Spark R&D we had to adapt to an online presence due to the cancellation of our normal trade show season. This meant building a dealer-specific website packed with features and information for both new dealers as well as returning dealers. Along with a new dealer-specific website we put together our print catalog for those with more refined taste in their catalog viewing experience. 2020 Was also packed with advertising, online events, and our first T-shirt design made to support an Avalanche center of the buyers choosing.
The 19-20 season at Spark R&D was eventful in our machine shop. Myself and the Spark Marketing Manager built a new trade show booth for a new updated look. Most of the summer was spent planning, cutting, screwing, gluing, and crating our new booth. During the 19-20 season we also revamped our website, designed a new catalog, held events, and even organized an in-house product manual detailing every product, how it is to be built, packaged, and displayed for the end customer, something that until now, Spark R&D never had.
A preview of a few magazine ads I created for Spark R&D - The Splitboard Binding Company from 2016 to 2022. The magazine ads are all print but in this version they're all animated to bring you a showcase of designs. This is only a small fraction and a highlight of the ads we have created from the past six years.
Venture was founded in 1999, beginning their lifelong pursuit of crafting unrivaled snowboards for maximum mountain enjoyment and performance. Every Venture is handcrafted by snowboarders in their Silverton, Colorado factory and tested in some of the most demanding terrain in the lower 48. These 5 board graphics created by myself in collaboration with Venture are for sale during the 17-18 season at venturesnowboards.com
