Victoria Richard
Founder & Creative Director
Victoria Richard founded Visually Speaking in 2005 and serves as Creative Director, Project Manager and Visual Translator. She embraces the philosophy that when you have a sincere interest in your client’s needs and open rapport, great things emerge. One of Victoria’s strongest skill sets is helping to support the abstract, and build “what could be.” She accomplishes this by embracing the analytical side of projects with a focus on research and discovery. Projects are managed through organization and follow through, to build “what could be” into reality. An eternal optimist, Victoria can stay within the lines as needed, but loves pushing the perimeter with ambitious partners.
Prior to forming Visually Speaking, Victoria was on staff at North Oaks Health System as the Print and Production Coordinator (#creativedirector). She and her staff were responsible for regional campaigns with multimedia components including newspaper/magazine ads, radio/TV commercials, billboards and print material. Other duties included production of long-format videos, overseeing department budgets and annual employee evaluations.
Victoria also served as Creative Director at Neill Corporation. As part of the executive team and responsible for all design work, she and her staff developed show brochures, newsletters, logos and multimedia presentations for regional/national audiences.

Services
Campaigns
The time spent planning a campaign is well worth the effort. From concept to budget to execution of work, the end result will be measurable and sustainable. Sometimes the journey is the destination. Our ability to pivot creatively is a necessary skill set.
Print Design
From newsletters and ads, to reports, brochures and specialty promotions – we love creating beautiful print pieces (sometimes we even sniff the varnish). The rhythm and flow of well-designed collateral is a craft that we whole-heartedly embrace and enjoy.
Identity + Branding
We are purists with established brands, closely following all style guides to ensure integrity is upheld. We creatively work through all kinks and refinements to create new logos/branding that is distilled down to the most basic components and outlined in an easy to understand guide
Video Scripting
It all starts with a concept. Storytelling through a video can send an arrow straight into the heart for emotional impact. We develop scripts and storyboards; and work with talented cameramen and editors to tell powerful stories. It’s a journey that is fun and rewarding.
Environmental Displays
We love a challenge! Environmental displays allow us to explore effective design in a dimensional space. The parameters of message, use, budget and logistics are balanced with creativity for maximum impact.
Multimedia
Presentations should tell a story and support the speaker. We help our customers communicate information with effective PowerPoint, Keynote or Prezi presentations designed to support both the user and message.
We're artists, makers and meticulous designers — working through details and creative parameters such as budgets and style guides. We’ll stay up all night and work through weekends if it’s what a project's deadline requires. With the exception of the last weekend of April and first weekend of May – New Orleans Jazz Fest has priority.
