User Experience


As a part of my career in Engineering, I have been able to study and implement intuitive and aesthetically pleasing User Interfaces for products at BSQUARE, Alcorn McBride, or when I was in the Industrial Design curriculum in Auburn University

Industrial Design is the school of thought behind ergonomic, intuitive, and aesthetically pleasing interface and product design. Though originally trained in traditional media like marker rendering, today I create almost all product renderings with graphics tools like CorelDraw and Adobe CSx.

Product Renderings

GUI's/Control Panels



Below are a few samples Alcorn has graciously let me show on this site.  These are black-box, rack-mount products with LED's, screw terminals, RCA jacks, buttons, screen prints, etc...  These are fronts and rears of various products.  There is also a software GUI design at the bottom.     Below are some sample GUI's (Graphical User Interfaces) Alcorn has again let me show on this site.  They are examples of the integrated interface  your installation can have.

Storyboards:


I have extensive traditional drawing experience and training in storytelling (writing flow), in addition to my graphics skills.  Here are a couple examples of storyboards I created to help generate video content.  These were given to a video house along with a target audio track and some video or still content files too.

We created a branding theme, which are the circles, around Alcorn's "The Sights and Sounds Behind the Scenes" slogan, interspersed with Hi-Def licensed footage on top of an Alcorn audio track.

A 9x16 video for a shopping mall demo.  The target device was a plasma screen turned on its side for digital signage in the mall.  It had advertising footage, and a mall map.

 

Logo Design & Corporate Image:


I always work to create a memorable logo that is easy to spot at a distance, is printable in black & white and in color.  I have created over 30 logos and over 50 T-shirt designs.  These are examples of some logos I have been hired to create and some that I generated while doing case studies in the MBA program.
