Business Roundtable's brand served as a backdrop for the President's speech to the association's CEO members in December 2012. Working under an extremely tight deadline, Doug worked with staff to translate the BRT brand that we developed in 2009 into a blue, camera-friendly backdrop. Business Roundtable is an association of chief executive officers of leading U.S. companies with nearly $6 trillion in annual revenues and more than 13 million employees worldwide.Douglas Paynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10903786955756054530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18472302.post-60998952256893253632013-01-16T10:12:00.000-05:002013-02-06T11:29:14.998-05:00Alina - Identity<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Doug was asked to develop a simple but elegant logo for a Los Angeles-based stylist, Alina Ratta, incorporating her initials. With clients all over the world, including well-known celebrities, Alina needed a lasting brand that could be used on a variety of printed and digital materials. It was decided that a simple monogram incorporating a strand of hair as the cross-bar in the "A" be the primary mark, supported by Alina's first name.

Conceptual visual identity for Brand Bank, a 100+ year-old regional bank north of Atlanta, Georgia. The goal with the identity was to create a contemporary look and feel that underscores its century-plus roots in Georgia. A double "B" monogram as a key incorporating a contemporary typeface was one of several options presented. Sub-brands for the bank's various financial services were also explored.

The firm's attorneys advise clients who serve as executors of wills and and trustees of estates. Established by two former partners at Williams Mullen, Virginia Fiduciary's practice areas include probate, trust administration, estate taxes, fiduciary income taxes, and post-mortem tax planning. The goal of the firm's new identity was to create a mark that suggests a time when wax seals were literally used to seal wills and other legal documents.Douglas Paynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10903786955756054530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18472302.post-58323013742562197872012-07-04T17:52:00.000-04:002013-02-06T10:18:00.736-05:00Taking Action for America - Logo Design<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Taking Action for America: A CEO Plan for Jobs and Economic Growth. Working with the client, we developed a print and online advertising campaign to raise awareness about a study developed and authored by America's top CEOs designed to revitalize the U.S. struggling economy and accelerate job growth. The ads target Congressional leadership, The White House and key policy makers in Washington, D.C. Full page ads ran in The Wall Street Journal, Politico, Roll Call, The Hill, National Journal and CQ Today on March 7, 2012, the day the study was officially released.

Westhills had built up a good deal of brand equity with their name and reputation over the years, but their visual identity and collateral material was a far cry from the excellent craftsmanship they had become known for. <br /><br />After interviewing the principals and senior staff and conducting a thorough review of their marketing materials, signage, and website, it was determined that they were in need of a serious graphic and messaging makeover. Visually, some of the graphic elements and color schemes that had been a part of the company since its inception in 1970 were kept so as not to confuse their existing customer base. However, the graphics were stepped up several notches across all media platforms, and the tagline "Built for Life™" was added to the re-designed corporate logo to remind people of the high quality of their work.<br /><br />The most visible example of their new brand identity, a website, was developed with ample information about the Company and its staff, and included links to printable flyers of the properties for sale in a variety of communities in the Shenandoah Valley.

The initiatives included education, job creation and the US-Korea Free Trade Agreement, which passed successfully and was signed by President Obama in December 2010. The full page print ads were created and written by Payne & Company and ran in Politico, the National Journal, Roll Call and The Hill.

Pacific Beverage was a small but rapidly growing company when its principals began searching for a designer with packaging experience to re-design the identity and packaging for its main product, Pacific Chai. Chai is a tea latte made with honey, vanilla, cinnamon and ginger, first popularized in the far east. Pacific Beverage was ready to move to the next level, and it needed a unique, sophisticated look that reflected its higher profile in gourmet coffee shops and retail outlets across the U.S. I directed a team of packaging designers who began the project by re-creating the visual identity, hand-lettereing a bamboo brush wordmark that evoked a far-eastern look and feel. Warm tan striped packaging was then created and the label logo was color-coded to indicate the particular flavor. Result: Pacific Chai raised its profile in 2001-2002, expanding its market base and winning two gold medals from the American Tasting Institute, including "Best of Show" and "Gold Taste Award." The company continued to grow rapidly in 2003-2004, positioning the company for sale in 2004.<br /><br />Agency: Riddick; Creative Director/Art Director: D. Payne; Designer: E.

Doug directed a talented creative team and crafted the John Tyler campaign theme, “Get Real. Real-World Education” for print and broadcast media. The campaign featured actual students and underscores the College’s commitment to representing a diverse student body. The campaign profiled three John Tyler students and how the College offers “Real-World Education” to those who lead fast-paced family and professional lives outside the classroom. The message had to resonate with the returning student seeking a two-year degree, the working professional seeking technical certification and the traditional student seeking a transfer degree to a four-year university.<br /><br />The campaign was a success, dramatically increasing John Tyler enrollment over a two-year period. The creative team also received one national and two regional advertising awards for communications excellence.<br /><br />Agency: Riddick; Creative Director: D. Payne; Director/Producer: T.
