Graphic Design Services

With ten years of experience in design as an Art Department member, director, and as an independent freelancer, I have developed a wide range of skills and abilities that are available to businesses and individuals within the Roanoke area, or off site through internet connectivity. Services include:

General Design: Just need a flier, postcard or newsletter put together quickly, professionally, and for a great discount relative to the high prices charged by local advertising agencies with high overhead? You will be shocked at how much money you can save by hiring a one person design team.

Web Site Design: Put an online face on your business that reflects your own professionalism and quality, without having to hire an entire IT department. Quick, painless, impressive web site design for people who don't know there HTML from a hole in the ground.

Design Production: You know what you need, and you know you need it quickly, but you also know you don't need to keep a staff of highly trained designers and expensive design computers in your office to get it done. With a flexible schedule, a fierce work ethic and a nose to the grindstone attention to detail and time management, allow me to put my time tested production skills to work for you - getting the work done quickly and inexpensively and getting out of your way when it's done.

Photoshop Production: Photographers! Do you miss the simplicity of the days of Film? There is no debate that digital has taken over, and the affordable and convenience of a digital workflow are critical to the success of a photographers business model. With 10 years of focused and intensive photoshop experience, I have developed a fluency with Photoshop and a knowledge of its ins and outs that is unmatched in the Roanoke area. Bring in the Photoshop Expert for your preproduction and save yourself time and money.

Editorial Design: With five years at the helm of Art Direction for Leisure Publishing Company, allow me to apply my knowledge of publication design to your need. Whether you need a freelance designer to get you through the crunch, a few fresh looks at an important cover, or a refresh of your entire publication's design - I have the experience to help you with the process.

Direct Mail and Advertising: It doesn't matter how carefully and strategically you build your business model - if people don't know about you, you're sunk. If you are trying to get the word out, allow my experience with advertising and direct mail concept and design to point you in a new direction, or reinforce your current marketing plan. With two businesses of my own to wrangle in clients for - you can bet I've had some practice.

Identity Design: Just starting a new business? As you daydream about the name of your brand, and see the good and bad logos of other businesses in your chosen industry - does the task of establishing your own identity seem too daunting? With experience creating visual identities for both local and national companies I can enable you to realize the visual identity that you might not even know you want yet.

Music Promotion: J cards, Tray Cards, Screen printed discs, Jewel cases, Jackets, Eco-wallets - get your music out there with a design and package that helps reflect your sound and looks like it's music you made. All aspects of CD packaging and distribution can be managed and provided.

Design Education: As an instructor of Communication Design at Virginia Western Community College I am able to provide in classroom instruction for any of the current industry standard design applications. Enroll in one of my courses through Virginia Western's Website. I am also available for individual training or on site seminars and training. Contact me directly through email if you are interested in individual or on site training.

Writing: With work published weekly in the Roanoke Times, and regularly in Blue Ridge Country Magazine and The Roanoker Magazine, I am proud to include my services as research writer in my portfolio. If you need editorial content based on local activities such as Motorcycling, Fly Fishing, Design, Technology, outdoor sports or anything else, allow me the opportunity to research, photograph, and write the content for you.

Affordability: All of these services are available at your convenience and for a great savings when compared to other options that are available. Please email me at william@emailwilliam.com for a free quote on any work that you might need, a closer look at my portfolio, or for references you can call who will back up my promise that I can provide top-quality and timely work at a great reduction in cost over other alternatives. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work, and I look forward to talking with you!
