Some of Our Past Work
WARNING: This is not your typical marketing portfolio. There are a lot of work samples on the page below, not because we couldn’t decide which to show and therefore chose them all, but because we believe a marketing portfolio should show more than just the best two selections from each company we worked for.
There is some of that here, to show our ability to work across industries and audiences, but there are also a lot of writing samples from one company. And we believe that’s the real strength behind this portfolio.
Real marketing success comes from the ability to continuously and creatively mine a brand for interesting, informative, and thoughtful content. Consistency matters in marketing. Building a brand takes time and a clarity of messaging that gets reiterated day after day, year over year through a range of marketing channels.
So below you will find a few cherry-picked one-offs for show, but mostly you’ll see a lot of examples of how to build a brand over time — because that’s what you need in the real world. And that’s where the marketing magic happens.

3D Animation
Working with our in-house animators at Invata, we used animation to articulate solutions and promote robotics.

Direction and concept for the robotic arm by Walter High, animation and artistry by Leandro M. Spallanzani. Dan Dervay animated the AMR video with direction from Andrew Jbs and Walter High. High edited the videos.

Website Strategy, Direction, and Copy
This was the second iteration of the Invata website. The first, created in 2013, was SEO driven and served us well for 5 – 6 years. The second iteration simplified our messaging, controlled our narrative, and focused on our customer. Pages were designed to be long and walk prospects through a subject without a multitude of links to take them off message. The navigation was simple and clean and the copy was prospect focused. Copy and direction by Walter High. Coding and UX by Russell Moore.
White Papers
These white papers for Invata Intralogistics were all conceived, reserached, and written by Walter High. Graphic design by Matt Keogh.
