Perhaps the jewel of my web design experience is the website for The Johnny Dare Morning Show on 98.9 The Rock in Kansas City. After battling an extremely inconvenient, yet intensive website for two years, I built and designed a replacement for the morning show in one month. Now, the website is efficient, convenient and works smoothly for the user. You can view the website at FreeJohnnyDare.com. The website is a heavily content driven site that gets an average of 30,000 page views a week. It was very important that the redesign be done quickly, but also that the finished product be easy for all to use. I continue to manage this site daily.
I have also recently created a mock dating site for Afentra’s VD Party, the Valentine’s Day concert for Afentra’s Big Fat Morning Buzz on 96.5 The Buzz. Click here to view the site.
I helped launch two redesigns of station websites in Kansas City for 98.9 The Rock and 96.5 The Buzz. I have also developed some graphics for both stations. My most recent graphic was for a concert for the birthday celebration of Johnny Dare. CLICK HERE to view the graphic.
Freelance Work
I have developed many websites for local and national clients. Recent sites include Bellis Guttering and Lodges at Table Rock. I also just finished the official website for the record label, Ironworks Music. This is the label that Keifer Sutherland, Jude Cole and Jesse James Dupree created, featuring artists like Lifehouse, Jim Stapley and Billy Boy On Poison.
Video Production
In addition to web/graphic design, I do extensive video production for Entercom Broadcasting. I have shot and produced videos of bands live in studio and also developed vlogs for on-air talent. Below, the first video is of Rev Theory live in the studio on The Johnny Dare Morning Show on 98.9 The Rock. The second is a daily vlog we shoot with Bob Fescoe, the morning show host on 610 Sports. Finally, the third is a vlog we cross promote on 96.5 The Buzz and 610 Sports.
Podcasting
Among my other skills, I have a professional expertise of audio production, specifically using Adobe Audition or Pro Tools. To expand my knowledge of audio production and merge it with my digital skills, I’ve created two podcasts for Afentra’s Big Fat Morning Buzz and The Church of Lazlo, both on 96.5 The Buzz. CLICK HERE for Afentra’s podcast and HERE for Lazlo’s.
New Media
I’ve been very involved with the evolution of media and its integration into new media, such as Facebook, Twitter and blogs. Perhaps the biggest project involving social media would be managing The Johnny Dare Morning Show Fan Page on Facebook, which at last count had 19,000+ fans. CLICK HERE for the fan page.
I have also started working with Ning.com, a website that creates a social network community specifically for YOU. We have utilized it for Afentra’s Prom, an annual Spring concert for 96.5 The Buzz. CLICK HERE for Afentra’s Prom on Ning.com!
I manage the Facebook and Twitter accounts for both WPLJ and WABC. I’m working with programming and on-air talent to ensure that our brands are accurately represented with every update and piece of content found on the social media sites.
