Graceland approached Speak Creative with a need for a new website that encapsulated the life and personality of the Elvis Presley estate and featured their new 200,000-square-feet exhibit complex, Elvis Presley's Memphis.
The site was designed to capture and showcase a little of Elvis' style and personality. Little touches were added such as the animated glitter buttons on hover. A drawer was added to the left side of the site for quick access to several pieces of content that were necessary for visitors to the site. Expandable menu items were also added to ensure that the menu wasn't too long but still gave users access that they needed.
The site was developed with Speak Creative's proprietary content management system using jQuery to add more functionality and style.
The biggest result is that Graceland.com has more than doubled campaign ticket sales year over year since its launch in early 2019.

The site was developed in WordPress with custom post types to enable the user to add new blocks to new pages and edit them in an easy way. This meant a lot of careful planning on the backend to ensure that it couldn't be broken on the frontend by a normal user.

As part of their plans to evolve their current social media app, Visva explored the opportunity for an Electron-based desktop app that expanded their feature offering.
The concept for the desktop app was focused on making often complicated tasks easier and manageable. The target user for the app was a Group's Admin or Moderator and how we can make their job easier. They often had the job of managing members, tasks, events, documents and overall communication with multiple members. This app was designed to bring all that together in an easy-to-use and understand solution. Dark mode and light mode versions were created to support the user's system settings while encompassing the brand's fun color palettes.

The existing app was built with React and Leaflet map. The app displays data available from the Earth Search Open STAC API. New major features were added and the entire project was moved to an open source repo on Github.
