Thomas the Apostle - Wilmington, DE

Design Introduction

Hi Monsignor,

My name is Danae Chudy and I am the web designer at Diocesan Publications assigned to your project! I'm just emailing you to let you know about the design process. Currently, I have a few projects ahead of you in the queue but in the next few weeks, I plan on reaching out and setting up a design consultation. This consultation will give me a better idea of your vision for the website and other design elements you require. Please let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.

I'm excited to start working with you and I look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,
Danae Chudy

Hi Monsignor,

I wondered if you had any availability next week to talk about the website design? As of right now, my week is pretty open so let me know if there's a time that works best for you or if you rather wait to the following week.

Thanks,
Danae

Hello Danae,



I apologize for taking to long to respond to you. I have been in and out of town over the past few days. I will be in touch next week with some dates and times that we could possibly chat.



Thanks so much,

Dear Danae,

So sorry to be elusive. The last few weeks have been very challenging in terms of scheduling. Would you be available next Wednesday, June 19? My only appointment that day is at 11 AM so earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon.

Thanks so much,

Monsignor Hurley

Hi Monsignor,

If you could please forward me the photoshop file of your logo and maybe a high-quality photo of the stain glass window? I'd love to start on that and see what we can come up with.

Thanks!
Danae
FROM THE CLIENT Monsignor Hurley, St. Thomas the Apostle DE Staff
Hi Danae,

I sent a PNG file of the logo to you a couple days ago. I’m still trying to locate the Photoshop file.

I will also send the Hi-Rez of the Stainglass as soon as possible.

Thank you,

Monsignor Hurley
TO THE CLIENT Danae Chudy, Web Designer at Diocesan

I'm sorry I didn't receive the PNG file... But I will just need the Photoshop file and the photograph of the stained glass so whenever you have those is fine (:

Thanks!

Hi Monsignor,

Here are some options for the logo. Please let me know what you think. I tried to make them simpler in color schemes but it is hard to make it super simple with all the stained glass detail.

Thanks,
Danae

Hi Monsignor,

I was just wondering if you had a chance to talk to the others about the website design and logo. I'd love to get the website design approved so it can get into the development queue. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks,
Danae
FROM THE CLIENT Monsignor Hurley, St. Thomas the Apostle DE Staff
Dear Danae,



We like #6. I have also attached a PDF with an alternate lettering style. I used Trajan Pro font.

Let me know if you think the font or spacing would be a problem.



Thanks,



Msgr. Hurley
TO THE CLIENT Danae Chudy, Web Designer at Diocesan
Hi Monsignor,

If I may suggest somethings... I would create more spacing between "St. Thomas" and "the Apostle" so its easier to read. I made "the Apostle" a little smaller so the viewer isn't overwhelmed with the title. Also, Catholic Church and Wilmington, Delaware lines are slightly smaller so it follows the rules of hierarchy information. 

I will make the changes to the proof with #6 as the logo and font if we are good with it. I made a few different options so you can use it for regular black and white print and white watermarks if you would like. The one with black font sometimes is sometimes easier to print off and read. But I will make sure to use the colored font option for the website.

Please let me know if you have any questions or want anything changed.

Thanks,
Danae

Looks great! Thank you.
