Brand Strategy

#brand-strategySingle-day kickoff · 1/31/2018

The 1/31/18 working kickoff: a brand-attribute card sort, an audience map (Policymakers · Press · Other Industry Stakeholders · General Public), and a journey diagram tracking each cohort across press release → FCC filings → article → social. Card sort outcome: 10 attributes explicitly rejected ("you are not"), keepers clustered into 5 themes (Advocacy · Focused · Defined · Smart · Refined) that the rest of the system pays off.

Content Systems

#content-systems

IA inverted so the policy beat leads. Newsroom is the front door with three sub-categories (Statements + Releases, Articles, Filings); Issues is the six-beat policy taxonomy (5G, Infrastructure, Spectrum, Open Internet, Economic Impact, Resources); About sits behind for the coalition position and press contact. Search runs across everything.

Web Design

#web-design

Design comps for the full template library: Newsroom hub, FCC Filings index, Issues index + detail, News story, Publications, Blog single, Statement single, Search, About / Contact, and mobile variants. Newsroom hub pairs a featured story with a right-rail of the four most recent items; every story card carries a typed kind chip (ARTICLE, STATEMENT, FILING) so the reader knows what they are picking up.

Web Development

#web-developmentTwo QA rounds: 6/12/18 + 6/15/18 MEW review

WordPress build on WP Engine (mobilestaging.wpengine.com staging). Site went live in 2018 and the comms team published into it through the year. June 12 and June 15 2018 QA captures preserved here as the live-site reference; show real published content (FCC Reauthorization, Ray Baum Act, Senate Omnibus, House AIRWAVES Act, RCR Wireless op-ed, etc.) running on the template library.

Print Design

#print-design

Stationery suite: mailing tube, A4 envelope, letterhead, two-sided business cards (black/white inversions), and a branded notebook with red elastic strap. The Mobile Trends Report Vol 2.0 cover (orange duotone VR-headset shot with GT Sectra "2020" at scale) ran as a separate annual publication concept.

Editorial Design

#editorial-design

Story-image system for article covers. Brand-color duotone treatments (Signal Orange, Wireless Teal, Field Navy) layered over editorial photography. Eighteen named treatments shipped at launch covering the recurring policy stories (mobile economy, 5G, infrastructure streamlining, Ray Baum Act, FCC unleashing wireless, lifesaving 9-1-1 connections, small business, etc.) plus three texture variants per color for posts without a photo subject.

Art Direction

#art-direction

Header-landscape exploration for the section mastheads. Six wide-format compositions sourced for Newsroom and section heads, each carrying a duotone treatment so the masthead reads as part of the same publication when stacked above a story feed.

Video & Motion

#video-motion

Principle prototype of the Newsroom hub. Used in design review to spec the loading sequence and the Featured-carousel paging behavior for the WordPress build. Two cuts: a 0:12 baseline and a 0:18 v3 with the final timings.
