VOLTAGE has designed and launched a new look and website for The Royal Gorge Bridge and Park. Along with our colleagues Vladimir Jones, we’ve taken the Royal Gorge’s web presence to new heights, and depth – and that’s pretty deep. The Royal Gorge Bridge is one of the world’s highest suspension bridges – hanging 956 feet high and spanning a quarter mile across the canyon. The park is an experience unlike any destination you’ll ever experience with 360 acres and 21 rides, shows and attractions to explore. The site features the parks excitement, history and allows visitors to buy tickets online, get directions, or surf key information on their mobile devices through an optimized mobile version of the site.

VOLTAGE had the opportunity to work with TDA Advertsing & Design in developing a website for the Sir Richards condom brand which has recently been recognized by Commarts magazine – the leading trade journal for visual communications. Good to know we had our own little part in saving the world one condom at a time. TDA is an amazing shop and we enjoyed working with their team on a few projects like this. See the feature here on Commarts website.

Voltage along with the talented folks at Vladimir Jones have launched a variety of rich media banner ads for Xcel’s responsible by nature campaign. We’ve produced a variety of standard flash banner ads, rich media banners, and custom game banners for the Energy company. One in particular launches an energy saving game that gives the user 15 seconds to pull the plug! It’s more challenging than you’d think, and there’s an easy way to win it – but sorry, you’ll get no Cheat Codes from us! Check it out on Meebo’s network.

VOLTAGE would like to wish everyone an Electrifying Christmas and a Positive New Year! Truly – heartfelt thanks go out to all our Clients, Friends, Family & Colleagues. We truly enjoy working with you all and thanks to your trust, support and collaboration – we have a great time doing what we love! Enjoy this mashup playlist from DJ Rico!
