It is with great pleasure that today I officially join the team at Python Safety as their Director of Marketing and Design. Python Safety is the provider of the best drop prevention solutions available today.

Since June 2011 I have been contracting for Python Safety, providing them with services such as web design, print design, and brand development. Key projects I have been responsible for include the development of the company’s 2012 product catalog (including photography for nearly 200 products), building a new company website, and inventing a brand new identity for the company from scratch. I also worked on a variety of marketing materials for the company including posters, presentations, trade show materials, shirts, booklets, packaging, stickers, brochures, business cards, and videos. Python Safety provides me with a unique environment where I am able to own projects from start to finish, explore design mediums I haven’t had the opportunity to work in before, and work with a talented management, sales and marketing team.

I will be ceasing additional contract work for the foreseeable future, and will focus solely on Python Safety and small personal projects.

My new home away from home.

Got these in the mail today. I know this catalog doesn’t mean much to people outside of our company, but seeing this project all come together so nicely really makes me feel fantastic.

I’m working on a few posts that outline the process we used for designing and producing this catalog. In some regard, I’m writing to solidify what worked and what didn’t work in my own mind. I hope that the series also helps others like myself who decide to design a catalog with very little (if any) previous print experience.

Python Safety is a company I have been working with for just over half a year now.

We upgraded our office space at Python Safety this past week. I’ve got more of a dedicated “studio” now for working on the new 2012 catalog.

And the catalog is shaping up very nicely. Still plenty to do, but if things continue at this rate, we should have a beautiful 80 page catalog ready for print by the end of December.

Pretty exciting for us all. In less than a year, we’ve moved and upgraded our headquarters twice. The company is growing quickly, and having a lot of fun :)
