truck beat
Truck Beat is a project sponsored by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and Finding America. It's creator set out to come up with a unique way to cover the news, regarding health and healthcare, in the Knoxville, TN area.
Truck Beat needed a site to showcase it's stories in a blog like format. A simple CMS was needed for each of their reporters to log in, add or update stories.
This is the first "blog type" site with a CMS that I have ever created. Like everything, I'd do it a lot of things differently if given the opportunity again.
my contributions to this site
- Worked with the graphic designer to come up with a solid brand look and style guide
- Created Wireframes
- Designed Mobile first, then Desktop layouts
- Used Adobe Photoshop CC for my design
- I coded this site using Webflow and created a simple, robust CMS for their reporters to use
