Happy New Year!

It is a new year and lets hope that this up coming year brings success, prosperity, health and peace to all.

Bonne et heureuse année! En espérant que cette nouvelle année nous amène tous beaucoup de succès, prospérité, santé et paix sur notre planète!!!

Just an update that I am now concentrating on providing custom made websites; simple yet user friendly and adapting all the social media elements since that seems to be in such demand. Also, an another interesting function is the stats counters. I like the StatCounter.com code. Easy to implement and very functional. Just recently added Google Analytics to an existing website (tekskil.com). Just waiting to see what kind of traffic they get and if the info will help them in their marketing strategies for their site.

Back to my roots!

I am now back home after almost 28 years. It feels good and right where I belong. There is no place like home.
Since my last post, as far as work goes, I am now updated www.blackcreekalpacas.com web site. A little different to take over someone else's design. But I am a smart Kookie! and have been successful adapting from a PC software to a MAC Dreamweaver and hand coding .... eventually it will be a little bit more dynamic!

Been learning alot...there is so much out there. I am curious and doing most of it on my own but would love to be part of a team and grasp a little bit more. Communication and working with a team is the key! I must admit working alone is not easy.

The Tekskil site is being well received and I am pleased about that.

I am in the mist of creating another blog so stay tuned for that. (Maybe I will get some followers on that one hee hee!)

Design for Tekskil

Take a look at the following link:

http://www.leclairimages.com/TEKSKIL/indextek.html

I am rebuilding and designing a web site for Tekskil Industries Inc. They sell teleprompters. It is a custom built site (no Joomla or E-Commerce or CMS) they wanted something distinctive and unique to their product. I am working with a great team at the company and really know what they want and they know their product.

I must admit it was a challenge in the beginning with Joomla and it really did not match their needs. So Dreamweaver, some Flash elements and hand coding is how the site is being built. Biggest challenge also is Internet Explorer - why can's all the browsers be compatible? I am a MAC user.

Right now the site is linked to mine but stay tuned for the up coming Tekskil Industries New Look! It is awesome!

Gotta love multimedia...

Check out my website

Hello

Well things are moving along. I am working on rebuilding a website for a company that sells teleprompters - Tekskil.
All custom made and hand coded and of course a little Dream.

I must say in the beginning I was trying to adapt the existing website that is in Joomla. Turns out that this CMS was not for them.

However, in the meantime check out Leclair Images. Just click on the logo above and let me know what you think.

Check out my other blog on Transferable skills!

Yes well as I stated at the top of this blog this is a new beginning for me. Since the door closed on CBC-Radio-Canada I have graduated from UBC's Multimedia Intensive Studies Program. I have updated and changed my website I don't know a thousand times.. I have applied for work in this domain (still hoping to hear back) keeping my fingers crossed.

So back to transferable skills. I realize that my background is in television production but really everything I have done, learned, experienced is transferable. I am a very capable person. I can literally walk in to a new work environment, get the introductions and start working. I think it is that easy however, I am learning the hard way that it is not. THIS PROCESS HAS BEEN VERY DIFFICULT. Trying to sell and promote yourself and be willing to start at an entry level position (since I am a new career path) has been a challenge. I have spoken with a few head hunters and temp agencies and they all say the same thing...overqualified, why is she applying for such jobs and really she might get bored. NOT...I am willing to start at a beginners levels, I still have a lot to learn and really want to join a team that is willing to let me grow and maybe I can contribute with my extended experience in television production and help them along the way if they are so willing to maybe create some dynamic video spots for their web site.

On that note, still have faith that something will turn up. The internet is the wave of the future and really want to be part of it.

Malicious Worm

Hi

Got word from my host that this is definitely a bad one...DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN...obviously you are well aware of this.
Anyways, they were surprised that even MAC got the warning. So my host is attempting to secure their site and I suggest you do the same and contact your host. So with all that said, I still attempting tutorials for JOOMLA (a friend if mine needs help.

I have updated my site so please feel free to take a look and let me know what you think: www.leclairimages.com

Have a good day!
