Neil Forrester | Proprietor / Website Designer / Graphic Designer

Biography

Hello, my name is Neil Forrester and I am the proprietor of creative website design company Pixelfire. I have over 13 years professional graphic design experience and 6 years professional website design experience. Pixelfire creative is based in Langwarrin near Frankston (55km south east of Melbourne). We have clients throughout Victoria and still provide design services for a few clients in the UK.

Pixelfire creative design agency has been in operation now since March 2010 and focuses on providing affordable website design, ecommerce shopping cart solutions and graphic design services to small to medium sized businesses. Our creative design work is always first class and I am sure that our competitive prices will suit most business budgets. Please see our Design Gallery page for work examples.

Having qualified as a graphic design professional at Kingston Upon Thames University in London 1999, I went on to work for some large London design agencies such as Complete, BSkyB and others before setting up my own business in the UK. It wasn't long before my own clients wanted easy to use websites they could update themselves in addition to logo design and brochure design. After a steep learning curve I now provide custom website design for the Joomla content management system that allows clients to update their own websites, add images and edit pages etc. All of our websites are easy to update and easy to use for visitors.

Although initially challenging at the time, becoming a Joomla web developer was a natural and essential step forward in the services I had to provide to my customers.

So, if you are looking to work with an Melbourne website design company that provides first class design services please give us a call on 03 9789 8563. You will with either speak to Julia or myself. Either way you will receive our one to one service and ensure you are happy with the end result.

Julia Mendelawitz | Copywriter and Proofreader

Biography

According to history, I didn't say a word until past 3 years old - linguistically silent. Then suddenly one day, I started speaking...with fluid speech comprising hundreds of words. Apparently, I'd used my older brother who understood our exclusive, coded sibling language, to translate; my tactic being that they would understand what I meant better through him. In retrospect, this (however simplistic) encapsulates the essence of copywriting, i.e. to interpret meaning, optimally style with words and aptly transcribe.

Working as a prooofreader for an Australian publisher and printer, I learned the process of liaising with graphic designers, typesetters, sales representatives and managers towards the timely production of publication. An awareness of political, linguistic, stylistic and cultural sensitivities was critical to the marking up process.

Later, as editor and proofreader, proof listener, proof watcher and musical proofer/player for a multi-national music education publisher, I mostly worked remotely using interactive online documents and communication. The product was aimed at international markets and the English speaking markets required a customised editorial style guide incorporating not only a cross of British and American English but also of British, American, traditional and modern musical terminology.
