ADOBE - Website Award

Award:

Students used Squarespace to build their sites so their focus was not on coding but branding and functionality. As with all good websites a consistent brand should be immediately obvious. The main page should have impact and entice the viewer to continue through the site. An engaging about page with a bio that is professional and perhaps a little cheeky. A blog with content that is interesting and reflects their business. With contact info, and links to their social media platforms that are easy to find.

Below are the submissions for the award, from all the Faculty and Staff good luck to all who submitted. Thanks to our sponsor Adobe for continuing to support our students.

Judge:

Alison Capuano is a graduate of the Algonquin Photography Program and also has a Bachelor of Arts from Queen’s University. 

After graduating, Alison photographed product images for small companies. She realized having photos was only one piece of the puzzle for some clients and began offering more services like website design, social media content creation, and eventually marketing plans. That was how she found herself in the marketing industry and has stayed ever since. She currently works full time as a Marketing Manager for a software company in Ottawa. 

Throughout her career, Alison has redesigned and created multiple websites. She has experienced firsthand how a website can be everything for a business since it acts as a virtual storefront and sets the tone for client interaction. She believes websites should combine aesthetics, functionality and wow factor all while keeping user experience top of mind. 

Alison is excited to be the judge for this year's Adobe Best Website Award. She can’t wait to see what the Photography Program’s talented students have created.
