BER inc Announces the Upcoming Launch of a New Website Design for Academy Award winner Ernest Thompson

January 15, 2008, Mattapoisett, MA—BER inc, a communications firm specializing in corporate branding, proudly announces the upcoming launch of a new identity and website design for writer, director, and actor Ernest Thompson.

Mr. Thompson is the author of ON GOLDEN POND, back on Broadway with James Earl Jones and Leslie Uggams two seasons ago, followed by a national tour starring Tom Bosley and Michael Learned. The play currently is a smash hit in Israel, is touring Italy, and will open in Paris this spring, followed by productions in Athens, Madrid and Sidney. Translated into 26 languages, ON GOLDEN POND has played in more than forty countries. Mr. Thompson’s film adaptation earned him an Academy Award, as well as the Golden Globe and Writers Guild Awards, and the live broadcast of the play, with Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, was one of the most viewed plays in television history. The writer and/or director of many other films and plays, Mr. Thompson’s upcoming projects include the pre-New York run of AX OF LOVE at the Boston Center for the Arts in May and the films ELYSIAN FARM and THE LOVE LINE, in which Mr. Thompson also appears as an actor.

BER inc designed an identity that reflects Mr. Thompson’s world-renown status, creativity, and craft. The website, which is expected to be live in February of 2008, features a trilateral color scheme, representing both traditional and modern elements associated with the entertainment business. Geometric extensions of the home page photograph quietly extend into the black page headers, creating a klieg light effect, to symbolize Mr. Thompson’s profession. White acts as a clear and bright backdrop for content, fostering readability. Award-winning gold shines with an honorable neutrality that modestly yet powerfully represents Mr. Thompson’s many recognized accomplishments. The website will showcase Mr. Thompson’s work and upcoming events.
