We ♥ Color
Our last issue of Social Wire mentioned the newest social media addiction, Pinterest. Put down your pins and pick up a palette.
COLOURlovers is an online site that allows followers to discover their inner designer through shared color inspiration. Founder and CEO Darius A. Monsef IV created COLOURlovers while “playing with the idea that all of us see and experience color differently.” Monsef and his team wanted to create a place for people to explore and experiment with color. The site provides a growing international creative community (1,981,676 COLOURlovers) with the tools and services to take a project from inspiration to execution.
Demo Reel
Clark Creative in motion
During the design process for our website, we realized we had so many projects to show. Sometimes a picture is really only worth a 1000 words. Seeing a designer’s work digitally doesn’t always paint the whole picture. Texture, scale, color and relationship all play a part of the total dynamic of a design. Each component sets the tone of a brand.
We have a lot more to say, so we packaged it up in this nifty demo reel, showing our talents in motion. This piece shows design, animation, editing and story boarding skills. We hope you like it and that it leaves you bobbing your head to the beats and well, speechless. Or a simple jaw drop and the word “WOW!” would be a huge compliment too. We’ll take that!
Pay to Say… Now or Later
Facebook Allows for Scheduling Posts
It has arrived. Facebook now allows Page Admins for business pages to schedule posts in advance. Admins may also have varying roles too, allowing more control over the users. A new help center page from Facebook also outlines how brand pages can now dole out specific duties to multiple page admins, each with varying degrees of permissions.

Get on Board
The debut of Pinterest has created a new social media catch-phrase – pinning. Pinning is replacing friending as one the fastest growing social sharing addictions. Launched in March 2010, the website is a virtual inspiration board where users can categorize, organize, pin and share images worldwide. It’s a creative new business approach to spread brand awareness. We’ve gotten on board and hope you’ll give us a pin.
Time for a Marketing Check-up!
We don’t think twice about getting check-ups for our bodies, cars, and air conditioners, but when is the last time you had a marketing check-up? It’s always smart to check in routinely and review your business tools and message for attracting new business, and the end of the year is a great time to do it. Consider having your marketing reviewed – not only by your peers and internally – but also by a design professional (yes, like Clark Creative). As technology changes, so does media and the different ways to approach your audience. Here are a few checkpoints to get you started. Read more >>
