Project:
Fans know Carmindy for her incredible makeovers on TLC’s hit show “What Not To Wear,” and for her books that focus on bringing one’s inner beauty to the surface.In designing Carmindy’s mobile app, it was super important to distill her energy and passion for natural beauty into a clean and equally beautiful digital experience.

A full video and photo shoot was also produced to create a series of instructional and inspiration videos available exclusively through the app.

In 2009 L’Oréal turned 100. To commemorate this milestone, they needed an interactive experience that celebrated the grandeur of L’Oréal’s history and achievements, but also the individual employees of L’Oréal; they who are truly at the heart of the company’s 100 years of success.The site was created in two phases. The first encouraged and allowed employees to upload their personal stories and achievements throughout their careers at L’Oréal as either text, photographs, or video. These stories were collected in a database to be launched during Phase 2.

Finally, the montage segued into a flash interface assembled from the faces behind the stories. Clicking the faces launched additional flash windows to display individual stories, photos, and video.Role:
