Description

E-learning

WETA partnered with the National Center on Improving Literacy to develop a series of interactive learning tutorials. From creating a cohesive, accessible visual system — including color palettes, character illustrations, and infographics — to building out the modules in Articulate 360, Sagetopia transformed complex educational content into engaging, user-friendly experiences.

Client Testimonial

"I couldn't ask for a better partner in producing the tutorials. The whole team was phenomenal! This was an incredibly complex project, and I could always count on them for design ideas that were creative, modern, accessible, and appealing. They care deeply about accuracy and precision, too. And the production was on time, on budget, and clean as a whistle! This sounds over the top, I know. But just try them and you'll see!"
