BRANDING
Word Camp Branding - September 2016, I was asked to create a series of social media posts that would engage guests to sign up for Word Camp in East Greenwich, RI. My posts were used throughout the official WordCamp RI 2016 site: https://rhodeisland.wordcamp.org/2016/ and on their facebook pages.

UNIQUE MARKETING
Below is an example of the glass gobo Aj created for the band using the official logo that he designed for the band Hey Nineteen - Tribute to Steely Dan.
GOBO
The gobo was projected onto the side of The Odeum Theater building on Main Street in East Greenwich (from a building across the street) before the band’s performance in May 2014. The illumination attracted significant attention, created awareness of the event and increased ticket sales.

I drew the letters for the logo as a vector graphic in Adobe Illustrator
East Side Media and Aj Coletta have brought extraordinary value to my endeavor in live music. Much due to his efforts I have been able to develop a brand in the New England area in 1.5 years which has taken the competitors over 10 years to enjoy. Ajay is extremely thoughtful in his approach, mild mannered, and easy to work with. His eye for layout, color, and graphics is superior while his action time to make changes is near immediate.
East Side Media is the greatest thing you could bring to your business if you have a good product or service to promote. ESM will make it look superior to your competitors and let’s face it, we live in a very superficial world, so if it looks better, people will call you first.”

FACEBOOK BANNER - EVENT ADS
About once a month I create Facebook banner ads for the band Hey Nineteen .
This banner was one of my favorites.
I enjoy maintaining the brand but using gradients and a blurred photo as backgrounds.
Aja - recognized by many as Steely Dan's masterpiece; exceptional recording and masterful performances.
This special retrospective performance needs a solid title, they choose - "Reelin' In The Years"
This design became a limited edition tee shirt that the band sold along with their classic "Aja" inspired merchandise.
HOW TO...
Around 2010 I was hired to create a series of animated "DIY" videos for a client where each step could be paused and replayed. I illustrated all of the objects and animated each element in Adobe Flash.
