Montreal Matters is a yearly multi-partner and multimedia series for CBC Montreal. I designed the overall look and feel for the series online and the websites for these launches:
- Montreal Matters 2002 (MONEY)
- Montreal Matters 2003 (HOME)
Both of these sites won RTNDA awards for
Central Canada (Radio Television News Directors Association)
for best website. My initial design is currently being used for ongoing Montreal Matters series.
Duties:
- Took custom photography, designed Web interface, created html & Javascript templates,
- Developed content & maintained the site.through the series
- Promoted on-going events using ads, and daily-updated
calendars, both interactive and print versions (PDF).
- Converted all of the CBC Radio’s audio files into
Real Media and archived them on-line so that all of the series’
programming could be searched using multiple search fields.
- Created a classification system and archived all of
the audio clips onto CD-Roms for easy access and retrieval.
- Designed multimedia presentations for the official
launches of the series at the McCord Museum and the Biosphere.
- Created an interactive "Money Map" in Flash (right).
- Supervised a Production Assistant for the 2003 series, Julia Cyboran
