Today Utah.gov announced it has received the VEMA Award. The
VEMA Award recognizes outstanding work of the innovative, artistic,
and creative professionals involved in the multimedia arts and was
created to honor talented individuals and companies who strive to
further the evolution and excellence of the visual arts and digital
communication. The VEMA Award is a symbol that embodies the spirit
of multimedia excellence and artistry.
“It is an honor to be recognized with such a prestigious award,”
said Mark VanOrden, Chief Information Officer for the State of
Utah. “ We have strived to create an online portal where the public
can find the information and complete the transactions they need. I
believe this award confirms our success at reaching that goal.
Several new features at Utah.gov contributed to winning the award,
however, the zooming user interface and the responsive design stand
out as highlights of the excellent creative work done.”
The zooming user interface allows Utah.gov visitors to focus in
on a section of the website and easily navigate directly to the
information and details they seek.
With a large portion of the online population moving to mobile
devices, Utah.gov also features responsive design, which adapts the
online experience to any browser or screen size and determines the
appropriate layout. For example, if a user visits from a mobile
device or tablet, multi-columns are reduced to a single column and
images are hidden so they do not interfere with the layout.
The VEMA Award is sanctioned and judged by the VEMA Arts &
Standards Council, an invitation-only body consisting of a
distinguished group of highly skilled professionals with expertise,
leadership and vision in the various disciplines within the
multimedia arts.
