Digital and Print Marketing

The Platinum House Jewelers

I developed these ads for Newport Life Magazine, in-store displays, and for social media use while working at The Platinum House Jewelers between 2013 and 2o14. These ads generally conformed to a standard aesthetic color scheme of white and gray with gradients backing the jewelry or glassware. I took all of the photography, edited the images, and set-up the layout, mainly using Adobe PhotoShop. Going into these projects, I had no photography experience and some PhotoShop experience from college courses. Click on the images below for a high-res version.

January/February Issue for Newport Life Magazine 2013. For this issue, I went with a Valentine’s day theme accentuating hearts, jewelry with interlocking elements, and a pair of pearl-filled champagne flutes.

The Platinum House ad September October 2013 — Newport Life Magazine September/October 2013

Wedding Issue, back cover Newport Life Magazine. The idea was to focus on a variety of wedding themed merchandise. The engagement ring, the glassware, the cuff-links, the wedding bands, and pearl earrings.

Newport Best Read ad — Newport Best Read 2013 ad. Being a smaller ad size that was targeted towards tourists, we chose to display our signature line of charms that embodied a Newport vacation.

Rings — Facebook Page header. Also used in print ads. This was a particularly difficult photo to take and edit due to the variety of colors, and angles needed for the light to properly reflect off the stones

Treasures By Discovery Catalog

I developed a promotional catalog for a wholesale jeweler whom I was providing SEO services for. This was built using existing product photography and Microsoft Publisher. Click the cover to view the whole brochure.

Andrea Rizzo Foundation

I manage the layout for the Foundation’s monthly newsletter. Click to view archive.

I created this video slideshow using Windows Movie Maker in sync with the requested music to use on social media and promotional DVDs for the Andrea Rizzo Foundation to thank the Foundation’s supporters who took part in their Dance Across America initiative.

Navid’s Refurbishing

I am currently designing and building a website for this small business specializing in outdoor wood and metal furniture restoration. This mp4 logo plays when the user reaches the homepage and shows a mildewed, scuffed, discolored piece of wood that is restored to it’s original glory as the company logo appears. I built this through image manipulation on the final clean piece of wood and Windows Movie Maker.
