|
|
Hi all...
If you into to this sort of thing, please check out my new site and demos at:
http://www.orchestratedvo.com
I tried to put together a relatively simple easy to use site, and a variety of demos.
Any constructive critique from my fellow colleagues will be warmly received, and if you like the site, I'd be happy to do some link exchange [improves search rankings, yours and mine].
Many Thanks!

The website's layout is a bit too wide, even for my lappy's resolution of 1280 x 854.
Most folks are using laptops these days— I'd stick with a format between 800 and 900 pixels wide. _________________ DBCooperVO.com |

I second DB... reduce the size. I have a 22" widescreen and I had to scroll like crazy (vertical AND horizonal) to view your information. _________________ . If at first you don't succeed, then bomb disposal probably isn't for you. |

While I too had to scroll a bit to see everything, I'd like to point out a couple of small things that would help add some professional polish to your site:
1. Demos, most of the time, are multiple clips assembled from pieces of spots rather than whole spots.
2. Philosophical is misspelled on demo track number 4 (philosophical audiobook)
On the other hand, you're first rate at medical and scientific work and much of your other material is good. Also you've carried the theme through very well from page to page. Nicely consistent branding.
I wish you much success. _________________ Be well,

Okay, here are a couple of typos that jumped out at me.
On your first page "I invite you to see the many was..." I assume your mean "ways".
Same page, "copy writing" is usually written as one word.
Demo page, "...to decide if I am the voice you're looking for." (pet peeve of mine)
On the Info page, the picture obscures some of the copy, and the "Voice of Science and Technology" has a weird carriage return so it spans three lines, but that may be a factor of my using Firefox. |
