Dan and I exchanged emails about this. Tara, do you think the collage we had for MWC is a suitable starting point, or do we need to play around with the images more? And do we have that file we could use as a reference?

Hi, sure.  Rhonda can you help with this please?

Collage files to download are here: https://www.wetransfer.com/dl/cl7W199X/7210346326559483122f6e750168238f4eacaad373281a4622eaaa995d9c9a6364ff7d6729d6534

Let me know if there are any issues with them.

Dan/Slater, if you can provide more details around what you're looking for that'd be great. I'm assuming it's basically a cover page that has the collage (fading into a solid orange block) and possibly some text. but not sure what you were thinking for the other pages...also solid orange? or do we have the collage fade into white?

I'd keep it pretty simple. Mainly we need two things:

1. Cover page - orange, photo collage style - could use mozilla.org/firefox/new as inspiration, but perhaps put the hero images on the left side so the preso title & info could go on the right. Also, we'll need to swap out the image of the mascot with something else...Tara, any suggestions?

2. Detail page - would recommend just a basic white or extremely faded orange background, with the orange photo-y strip across the bottom. Kind of like we've done with other templates.

Rhonda, I think you have the Firefox 4 presentation template (the one with the blue stripey background), but if not please let me know and I'll send it over. Would be a good reference.

sounds good to me.  few quick thoughts:

* the file link I included was the MWC collage, vs. the one n the /firefox/new page - just FYI.  it's essentially the same thing just updated photos.

* I think that hero image with the mascot can be: ff crop circle, or the group shot from the summit.  Or, it can be done in a way that folks can customize for each preso since those images may not tie into their subject.  This way they can put something that makes sense to them, while keeping it int he same consistent style.  Just a thought.  

* another thought for the Detail page would be to use the strip / ribbon design they had done for the MWC booth, where we had an orange collage treatment but it was on a strip cut into the white canvas (with white copy).  screenshot attached to help explain what I mean.

There's not an immediate pressing deadline actually. What's good for you? End of next week? Sometime the following week?

Comment 9

[Rhonda Spencer]

Can we do early the following week for final hand off? If thats ok lets say before the end of the coming week I will have the first proof and then we can wrap it up by early the following week.

Hey John--
I took a stab at the Cover and Detail pages for the presentation.
Take a look and let me know what you think.

Thanks Rhonda. A few quick thoughts from me:

- on the cover, can you make it so the pictures are still visible on the right side, just way more faded out? Feels like there should be photos all the way across, although we do need them faded enough to put text over.

- for the interior pages, the shade of orange feels a lot lighter than the cover. Those should match.

- also for the interior, can we try a fade-to-white via a nice gradient instead of the hard border?

Thanks!

Thanks Rhonda. Front page looks good. For the interior page, could you tweak the fade so there's less of a distinct line at the top? If we could eliminate that line altogether, that would be ideal.

Appreciate it!

Hey John--
I made the gradient less sharp:
