While working on a major website redesign to align our brand and messaging we engaged Ron to help with the interactions and animation to bring the design to life.

Since Ron was working with an established design the project ran smoothly. The web designer and Ron discussed the established design language and we created a series of deliverables that would document the animations and transitions to be delivered to the development team for implementation.

In this instance, we worked directly with Ron .

The project is due to be launched in the next few months, but the user testing done since the interactions were put in place have been incredibly positive and served the original goal of the project.

The workflow was efficient with frequent video chats and regular contact on slack in the early days and then moving into more regular check-ins as the deliverables were established and work ramping up.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their eye for visual composition and motion in support of the established UX was very impressive. It is not easy to bring your point of view to an established design but he was able to do so effectively and on time
