CBS Boston — March 2016 advertising-information newsletter

The project

Advertising communications that make a dense mix of programming, client stories and sales opportunities easy to navigate.

My role
Graphic design, HTML email coding and project management, through The Carlon Group.
Scope of work
  • Monthly HTML email production
  • Newsletter graphics
  • Companion market-resource pages
  • Content and campaign updates

The context

CBS Boston and CBS Denver distributed recurring advertising information across newsletters and companion resource pages. The two markets needed recognizable station identities while supporting a changing monthly mix of programming, opportunities and examples.

Design approach

The layouts use stable content zones and labeled navigation to organize the information. Boston pairs its skyline and station identity with a dense blue panel system; Denver uses a lighter field, mountain motif and blue-orange accents. A consistent framework allows the monthly content to change without rebuilding the reading order.
