Project Shift

Get hired, gain skills, go places.

Designed to appeal to younger generations of tech-savvy career seekers

We designed and built Project Shift's custom Craft CMS site in tandem with naming, logo development, and campaign video production. The site's design reflects the features and general cool factor we knew young audiences would latch onto.

Client: Automotive Technician Collaboration (ATC), a group of 10 auto manufacturers looking to help high school grads and other job-seekers find high-tech, in-demand work in the industry.

A Brand Built for the Next Generation

Project Shift needed more than just a website—they needed a complete brand identity that would resonate with tech-savvy young people considering careers in automotive technology.

We developed a bold visual identity featuring striking colors, dynamic typography, and an upward-pointing arrow that symbolizes career advancement and forward momentum.

A Video Campaign to Pull it All Together
