Website Design and Development
Bring Back The Boom Box is an online music and culture magazine from Toronto, Ontario. I was hired, along with fellow designer Stephen Shaw, to design, develop, and maintain the website.
It was quickly decided by Stephen and myself that a content management system was necessary in order to allow the writers and editors to upload their own content to the site. WordPress was chosen as the CMS platform due to its relative ease-of-use for the writing staff. The site was then built upon the WordPress framework.
Website Design and Development
While working for 980 Marketing, BetOnline.com was the main focus of my efforts. I worked in part of a large team of designers, developers, seo specialists, and content creators to design, manage, and update the site.
I worked for several months on a complete redesign of BetOnline.com that launched in August of 2009. Once the site launched I was responsible for performing a number of daily tasks on the site, including designing and updating the news feed on the main page.
Landing Page Design and Development
One of the main promotions I worked on at 980 Marketing was the monthly UFC Fight Card Challenge. The promo required a basic informational landing page, with sign-up links and log-in box.
Originally planned as one-off contest, it was highly successful and I was later required to update the page to the latest UFC Fight Card on a monthly basis. These updates required the shuffling around of several key pieces of content on the page, which would change depending on the type of contest offered that month.
Promo Video Concept
This kinetic typoraphy promo video was a rush job developed in four days during my time at 980 Marketing. It was designed to fit into a redesigned website, and match it in colour, font, and style.
I handled all sound, video, and typography editing, and was involved in the project from start to finish. The script was written and read by Ian Van Den Hurk.
Note: Video is in QuickTime format.
Website Design and Development
This website was designed as a replacement site for BetOnline Affiliates while I was working for 980 Marketing. The goals for the site were to streamline a very outdated and content-heavy site into something that users would actually read. New features included a large, auto-playing, flash video area on the main page, and a more structured and simplified layout to the site architecture.
I handled all designing, HTML, and CSS coding for this website.
