The Old Branding
One of my first tasks when beginning this project was to re-brand the town. This was a high-pressure task because the town has had this branding since 1988.
The New Branding
I kept my changes subtle to avoid confusing the public. I brought the old color scheme up to compliant shades. From there I opted to give a modern yet serious feel with font choice.

This video is a major component for the upcoming website build. We will feature the app as a call to action throughout the website. It will have a stand-alone page. I created this using Adobe After Effects and Photoshop.
UI Blocks
My role with the Town of Apple Valley includes helming digital compliance. I will be creating a town-wide digital compliance action plan. Before my time here, the town was unaware of section 508 or WCAG (The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines).
