I always wanted to direct, so now I'm directing and building a new creative services company.
JWE Creative Services is my nicely-packaged hub for design, illustration, consulting, new media, web and mobile web design and print services. It's simply a place where any client can get quality creative services–from myself or my associates–for a reasonable price.
Now is not the time for expensive creative campaigns; it is the time and a good opportunity for businesses to learn how to do some things on their own; it's also a great time to take advantage of all of the free, internet-based services that can help you reduce overhead and get ahead of your competition.
In addition to the services listed above, my company will help others become more involved with the future of what the web (and its many networks) has to offer.
