danielle bonanni: April 2012

Paintings and Art Shows. Monday, April 30, 2012. Encoders and Avoiding the Robots. When I first started transitioning into web design from print layout, there were a lot of things that were obvious, and there were even more things that were so incredibly obtuse to the www. that I knew. One such element of internet operations was the concept that robots were constantly searching sites and pages, harvesting information, and using them for evil (or how it was described to me at the time). Over 30 local rest...

danielle bonanni: July 2012
http://daniellegeorge.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Paintings and Art Shows. Monday, July 9, 2012. A Study on Color. I had the pleasure of being completely blown away by a recent episode from Radio Lab regarding the visual perception of colors. Not only was it figuratively eye-opening to the biological differences surrounding the perception and interpretation of colors, but it had a profound impact on my reality as I knew it. Monday, July 2, 2012. In Search of Free Fonts and Typefaces. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). How NOT to Ruin Great Design. There was an...

Paintings and Art Shows. Tuesday, February 26, 2013. Design Resource: Free Textures for Web. One particularly understated, yet sometimes over abused, styling element is the background texture. In cases where these graphics are abused with harsh contrasts, heavy saturation, patterns too complex to have legible text, and poor placement, this ultimately creates the sense of a 2003 myspace page instead of the intended professional web presence. Behold. Your solution, www.SubtlePatterns.com. Cazenovia College...

danielle bonanni: Google Usability: A Time For User Feedback
http://daniellegeorge.blogspot.com/2014/02/google-usability-time-for-user-feedback.html
Paintings and Art Shows. Sunday, February 16, 2014. Google Usability: A Time For User Feedback. A wise person once told me, "Be the change you want to see in usability.". Actually, no one said that, but the message is still quite true. The best way to ensure your needs are met as a user is to make them heard by submitting user feedback and by participating in UX surveys, studies, and research. Like to take that survey. And so should you. Person makes a difference. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

danielle bonanni: The Importance of (Work/Life) Balance
http://daniellegeorge.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-importance-of-worklife-balance.html
Paintings and Art Shows. Monday, November 24, 2014. The Importance of (Work/Life) Balance. Pressure like this can bring us to justify crazy options just to meet deadlines and stay ahead of others. Crazy things like, habitually working 6 days a week, constantly on your phone or computer "just answer some emails" while at home, and working 80 hours each week regularly. The real hero is already home because she figured out a faster way to get things done.”. Being seen as someone who regularly only. It's one...

danielle bonanni: The Making of Disney's "Paperman"
http://daniellegeorge.blogspot.com/2013/03/the-making-of-disneys-paperman.html
Paintings and Art Shows. Monday, March 25, 2013. The Making of Disney's "Paperman". If you haven't been made aware of Paperman. The latest Disney animated short, I would classify it as a requirement for anyone seeking a shimmer of hope in an increasingly bleak time of the overpowering CG animation style entertainment. They use a very creative combination of CG technology with a hand drawn finishing effect to create the illusion of a 100% hand drawn animation. I recently read a blog article. From an artis...

danielle bonanni: "Make It Pop" and Other Illustrated Designer Horrors
http://daniellegeorge.blogspot.com/2013/11/make-it-pop-and-other-illustrated.html
Paintings and Art Shows. Sunday, September 1, 2013. Make It Pop" and Other Illustrated Designer Horrors. I came across a collection of posters designed to illustrate a few of the key things that we tend to hear in the industry, and was elated to not only enjoy an inspiring visual project, but to know that I'm not alone. Created by Mark and Paddy. As part of my recurring theme in this design blog, this highlight reel of feedback from individuals outside of the industry further enforces the need for accura...
