Our Process
Whether you are looking to enhance your existing website, or make that first leap onto the web, IMG Studios can smooth the way for you. Our team has been working together for over 10 years, building website's for companies both large and small.
We will work with your existing team of designers, or use our own, to create a more dynamic and engaging online presence for your company. Websites typically fall into one or more of the following categories:
- Standard Websites: Based in HTML, with JavaScript rollovers, button effects, etc.
- Dynamic Websites: Based in Cold Fusion (CFML) or Active Server Pages (ASP) using SQL or Oracle for database connectivity.
- Interactive Flash Websites: Built in Macromedia Flash, programmed in ActionScript.
Realty division on the airplane giant Boeing, Inc. Intricate use of Flash Actionscript for nearly 95% of the site, including a password protected intranet which is visible only to those viewers located within the Boeing firewall. New integration standards required a restructuring of the site into a database driven XML-formatted site here.
A Medical Spa in San Diego, CA, that wanted to convey the same sense of elegance and beauty on their website, that they offer to their customers. Extensive use of Javascript to create sitewide navigation, animations, dynamic loading, and rollover effects. Extensive modifications were made to all graphics used in the site, to match the other style elements on the page, & create white space to make a visual grid w/o lines or wrinkles ;)
Douglas Park: Phase III | Phase II
A master-planned development in Long Beach, CA. Incoporated new & old style elements to show growth from 50's aero-style into modern business park.
Phase I, initially named "PacifiCenter," consisted of a informational/ marketing-oriented site trying to get the word out that change is coming.
Phase II was more interactive, trying to involve the community in asking questions and resolving issues about the redevelopment plans. Online contact forms were used extensively to create grassroots email and letter campaigns to local officials.
Phase III is the current site that is actively trying to sell ready-to-build property to interested developers. Phase III uses FlashVars & Javascript to pass content variables between movies thru the URL string. This method also allows the browser's Back, Forward, and Bookmark functions to work as you would expect - something new for Flash movies!
Tax & Financial company, located in San Diego, CA. Designed to have "beachy-look" as it's primary customers are traveling nurses, usually stationed in somewhat exotic locales. Built in HTML with extensive use of javascript & CSS.
Built entirely in Flash, this site carries the style of the "California surf scene." Designed to market and sell a product (a surf-hat), the site had to be cutting edge in style, and easy to purchase from. This company has been bought out by a much larger distributor, so certain features (like e-commerce package & contact us) have been disabled.
