Project6 was recognized for a full identity and brochure campaign for AUL Corp and website redesigns for a leading music school, the Musicians Institute; the US-based, globally affiliated non-profit National Council on Crime and Delinquency (NCCD); and the Environmental Energy Technologies Division (EETD), which is a division of the world-renown Lawrence Livermore Berkeley Laboratory and is affiliated with the U.S. Department of Energy. Project6's strong branding principles and clean, clear designs helped successfully revitalize these brands and enable these organizations to connect more deeply with their constituents.

The EETD, Musicians Institute, NCCD and EETD websites are built with the Drupal content management system (CMS), an enterprise-level, widely supported open source CMS. Drupal is used by the White House and several other high-profile organizations. The CMS allows the Musicians Institute, NCCD, and EETD teams to add, edit, or delete web site content quickly and easily.

"AUL has always demonstrated the commitment to innovation and change," said Luis Nieves, AUL Founder and CEO. "We believe that the new branding better reflects our business approach and culture as we grow our business." "The response from our agents has been overwhelmingly positive," agreed AUL Marketing Manager Jacqueline Swank. "They are excited about the logo and sales materials and believe it is a terrific step forward for AUL."

"Project6 provided a great service to Musicians Institute by directly translating our vision," said Marisa Takenaka, Marketing Manager at the Musicians Institute. "All Project6 team members were patient and responsive with our requests, guiding us into a successful launch."
