"Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire,
you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will."
George Bernard Shaw
Website Creation...

The impression a website makes on the visitor is everything. Personalities don't interact. There are no pitches, ...only the visual presentation of your mission. A friendly and inviting web environment will encourage people to explore the message you wish to convey.

We design each website for visual appeal, quick loading graphics, user friendly navigation, and optimized content for search engine placement.

All our graphics are site specific, and created in-house. We also hand code all our work for optimal load time and editing capability.

Using proven tools and methods, we enable clients to successfully publish and manage information on the Internet. For those who wish to maintain and update their website, we offer editing software and training.

Lyrebird Media's primary concern throughout any production process is that the agreed end goal is achieved, whether we are producing a new site, or upgrading an existing site.

Background Notes

Ben Kettlewell has been active in web design since 1994. He works with a team of highly skilled partners who offer a wide range of web building capabilities and services, including Flash, 3D Graphic design, streaming media, database development and e-commerce options.
   
Ben's art school training in graphic design, painting and sculpture, and his achievements as an award winning filmmaker and soundtrack composer are integral to his approach to visual design.
    
The programming aspects of web design, using scripting in conjunction with digital imaging to construct visual imagery, such as layout, color and texture, have become a major fascination and driving force in Ben's approach to website design.
   
Initially, his website design projects were fairly simple; small sites for himself, other artists, and a few small businesses. Expanded programming skills under the guidance of Emily Johnson, MIT, brought more diverse clients. His website design work progressed to a professional level in 1996 when he became webmaster for one of the largest municipal sites in New England, Provincetown.com, which he maintained until 1998, when he moved to California. since that time he and his partners have created sites for dozens of individuals, businesses and organizations around the world.
