BlackOut is proud to have been chosen to work on a prestigious project with increasingly crucial implications – The National Center for Organizational Continuity (NCOC).
NCOC will serve as a clearinghouse for information and resources on the business continuity industry, a field that strives to prepare businesses of all sizes for disruptions to infrastructure and operations caused by catastrophic events.
The goal of the NCOC will also function as a training and research collaborative, connecting workers with the high-demand organizational continuity skills they need and providing networking opportunities for continuity professionals and institutes of higher education.
The first phase of our work with NCOC involved developing a logo that encompassed the mission and message of the Center. Our designers worked to create a logo that spoke to the Center’s core goal of empowering workers to handle any situation or circumstance.
The logo was only the first part of our engagement with NCOC. Check back for more news on the Center in the coming weeks.

For nearly a century, DeCoverly Kennels has built its reputation on an unwavering dedication to the quality of its breeding and training programs. When they needed a design firm to uphold that reputation in their marketing materials, they turned to BlackOut Design.
We produced for DeCoverly Kennels a full-color informational postcard suited for distribution at industry conferences. The cards describe the value of a DeCoverly Kennels hunting dog both in the field and at home while incorporating photography of their beautiful setters.
The DeCoverly team will take the cards with them when they attend the Garden State Outdoor Sportsmen’s Show this weekend and we’re proud that the postcards fully convey the DeCoverly tradition of excellence.

After founding and building BlackOut Design into Northeastern Pennsylvania’s leading interactive agency, BlackOut President Jack Reager likes to support other local entreprenuers.
In conjunction with the Great Valley Technology Alliance Business Plan competition, BlackOut offers its logo design and branding services, free of charge, to competition winners. We help these upstart local companies develop a custom brand and logo that allows them to put their best foot forward as they enter the marketplace.
We developed a branding package for Cognition Media and its product, Minerva. The Cognition plan was prepared by University of Scranton students Joseph Casabona, Matthew Pfahl and Kristen Said and involves the design and development of a content management system specifically for high schools to manage their websites.
After a few design iterations, these are the logos we settled on with the Cognition team. It was a pleasure working with Cognition and we wish them continued success in the future.

BlackOut continued its collaborative relationship with the Melberger Arts Center Gallery, designing postcards to promote the upcoming Hexagon Project exhibit at the gallery.
The Hexagon Project is part of Interdependece Day activities in Scranton. Interdependence Day aims to “acknowledge the inevitability and significance of interdependence in our time, and set out to build constructively and culturally a global civic society.”
Reflecting that theme, the Hexagon Project invites school students respond creatively to global issues and design unique hexagon art. More than 300 hexagons will be on display in the MAC exhibit.
Interdependence Day 2009 will be celebrated on Thursday, September 10, 2009. The Hexagon exhibit opens Friday,
September 4, 2009, and will remain on display through October.

For over 50 years, Valley Distributing & Storage Company has been the premier provider of supply chain solutions in the Northeast; and when they needed a design firm to communicate that sterling reputation to an online audience, they turned to BlackOut.
We designed a new site that reflects the full range of Valley’s logistics services including warehousing, transportation and distribution. Valley needed a web presence that was innovative and elegant. See the results at the Valley Distributing & Storage Company site.

To add to the long list of websites developed by Blackout Design, we recently rolled out the carpet for the demo of Hydro4ge, a fourth generation development environment. Helping convey the power and stability of the Hydro4ge platform, we have been working to publicize this development for a long time running, and now it is finally here.
Hydro4ge is a Platform as a Service that offers an online database application that is easy to build and manage in very little time. To find out more information and take a closer look at the demo, visit www.hydro4ge.com.

A few years ago, BlackOut was invited to help develop and market an exciting community development initiative, Rediscover Scranton. We’ve remained involved with the program and recently we had an opportunity to reflect upon how much Rediscover Scranton has grown during a refresh of our initial site design.
Rediscover Scranton is an initiative to promote the Greater Scranton area and its educational, cultural and business assets to professionals with ties to the area. They came to us looking for a site refresh that gave greater access to the full range of news they provide on the people, places and businesses that make up the Greater Scranton area. The new site design would also incorporate a BlackOut-designed blog, as well as information on their new partnership with POWER! Scranton.
POWER! Scranton is one of Northeastern Pennsylvania’s leading networking and social organizations for young professionals so the partnership with Rediscover Scranton was a natural fit.
Check out the results of BlackOut’s work at Rediscover Scranton or the Rediscover Scranton blog.

Recently we were fortunate enough to work with the team at TR Technology Solutions (TRTS) and local agency Sweda Advertising to bring together a blended traditional and digital campaign for TRTS. BlackOut provided a website refacing for two of the TRTS lines of business and developed a Fox Pros Who Know web presence. These pieces will dovetail with the television campaign spearheaded by the team at Sweda.
