WEB: CSB School of Broadcasting

Friday, February 8th, 2008

The CSB School of Broadcasting project was an overhaul of their existing site. Since 1964, CSB School of Broadcasting has been the top choice for thousands of students b/c they want a great career in television, radio or Internet media, and know they’ll benefit from CSB School of Broadcasting’s Learn by Doing® approach.

The new site was designed with a new, sleek, modern feel with ease of navigation and emphasis on a better user experience.

A content replacement system was added to the main locations (cities) pages using Wordpress as the engine.

This site is going through several phases before it is completely overhauled. One of the next phases to take place is and interactive flash header on the homepage where users can interact with the people represented on the homepage.

(thanks to Craig Juneau and Jodi Augustine at PlattForm).
