KayvonTV began as an internet cult/celebrity news show in late 2006 as a spin off from the Hounds documentary by Richard Budman. The show was then developed by John Bortolotti into a story driven/reality show and was later picked up by AUX TV for national distribution.
My role was as a creative developer and cameraman/photographer, as well as providing assistence to the director of the show. More information can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KayvonTV
The original website, channel on AUX.tv, and on Youtube have all been taken down. However, an alternate Youtube account is availabkle here: https://www.youtube.com/user/KayvonTVofficial
The home page contained with most recent episode of the show, displayed large for the user and on autoplay on page load.
Episodes on the front page could be configured using tags and drag and drop systems set up in the administration panel.
The episode watch page was generated from a wordpress post and could be configured to display a title card, show a list of relative content, share to facebook and twitter, and embed produce embed code to display the player on other sites.
This website was really my first professional website execution, which is why there is a much more traditional art heavy brand and style of design. This projected provided me with the opportun ity to teach myself the basics of HTML, CSS, PHP, and Wordpress.
Working with John and Richard on KayvonTV gave me the opportunity to learn video effects and develop conceptual animation for plans of a potential cartoon series.
