Editorial Calendar

Content audit in an actual time line... yay :/. So here is the audit itself "1. Welcome. 2.Services. 3.Contact. 4.News/Travel. 5.Biography. 6.The Facility. of these 1,3, and 5 are completely done. Content for 6 is 90% complete, Content for 2 is slightly over 75% complete, and 4 is at about 50%. The biggest hill I have to cross is the still imagery for the site. 2 and 6 still need their images, I have shoots scheduled for this upcoming week to complete those. 4 is the other end of the spectrum, the news and travel aspect of the site is going to require a lot of back logging calendars and itemizing previous work trips that have been taken as well as scanning the vaults of photos from said trips and filtering which ones will be used on the site for recaps of events. Summaries for each trip also need to be written. There is also a little bit of writing that still needs to be completed for 2." Lets prioritize these. 1. Shooting, I have 6 Hours of shooting on the calendar next week. (2.5 shooting hours for services, 2.5 hours shooting the facility, 1 hours shooting portrait for bio/ or contact, where this will go hasn't been completely determined yet.) 2. Calendar Management, I gonna estimate this on the heavy end. I think in 4 hours i can attack the rest of the calendar. I have work trips entered from October of 2015-June of 2016, I need to write summaries and attach images for these as well as log back another 8 months. Then i need to register the upcoming trips through October of 2016. Mondays are usually my computer work night, however with the holiday this week, I am going to push it off too Tuesday. Lastly 3. Writing, the final paragraph for services still needs to be written, I have a little research to do and then the actual writing of the body. Im estimating heavily two hours to get this done. Im gonna bite this off wednesday before class. So if anyone wants to bring me coffee ill probably need the extra kick to stay awake in this room for 6 hours. Wish me luck. If all goes well, the site content will be complete by next class and up for review. Note the images wont be done, they will still need editing. 4. Editing, one week. All in all, by week 10 I'm estimating to have all the final pieces, including images loaded up to the site and ready to go.

Content Audit

Alright, getting pretty close to done here so lets check of the rest of the boxes. Wait which boxes? Oh yeah, that's this. The time has come to figure out what i need to finish off, so lets see where exactly I am at. www.TheBodyMechanicMAT.com I have six pages on the website.. 1. Welcome. 2.Services. 3.Contact. 4.News/Travel. 5.Biography. 6.The Facility. of these 1,3, and 5 are completely done. Content for 6 is 90% complete, Content for 2 is slightly over 75% complete, and 4 is at about 50%. The biggest hill i have to cross is the still imagery for the site. 2 and 6 still need their images, I have shoots scheduled for this upcoming week to complete those. 4 is the other end of the spectrum, the news and travel aspect of the site is going to require a lot of back logging calendars and itemizing previous work trips that have been taken as well as scanning the vaults of photos from said trips and filtering which ones will be used on the site for recaps of events.

Alright guys, I know bringing all of our plastic to class is gonna be fun but I went ahead and bought my domain before hand. I wont be making it to class this week so here is my update. As you know, my site is already up, and my domain was purchased long ago (AmandaAmphlett.com) the site I am creating for this class now also has its official domain (TheBodyMechanicMAT.com) I also went ahead and crated a few mock ups for the way we want the site to look. First thing first, we decided to change the color scheme a little bit, Orange may be the new black, but for us Red is the new Orange. Here are the screen grabs of what we are thinking for the layout. Any input would be much appreciated, any questions id be happy to answer. I will try and layout the pictures as easily as i can to understand. Enjoy making it rain with out me on Wednesday. See ya in a week! Here is the home screen, there will be some sort of mission statement on the right hand side, however the exact sentence is yet to come.

Here are a couple insde pages we are considering, detail need to be worked out but these are examples for now.

Thoughts and opinions!? Thanks -Amanda

Current Website and Design Ideas

 I am in a little different place starting this class, I already have my website up and running so I'm hoping to get some feedback on what I have up. I will go through and post sites and styles I like in addition to what i have and any sort of criticism i would really appreciate. Through this class I will also be creating a sit e for someone else, I figured I might as well take full advantage of the course and keep up with the work flow. Since mine is complete I will be posting workflow for an additional site, I will do my best to keep everything separate and labeled so its as easy to follow site for site.

Check out my site and let me know what you think.

As for the second site, here is my Pinterest board for inspiration. The primary color scheme will be either red and black or orange and black. Please keep in mind that this site is not for a display of work, it will be a business site for Muscle Activation Technique, Boxing, Jiu-Jitsu, and Personal Training.

Have seven hours a day you don't need? By all means, check this thing out. If not, still probably check it out. Its pretty awesome for inspiration, techniques, and planning you future wedding, to the guy you haven't met yet, and picking paint colors for the twin girls room in your Vermont vacation house. So you get the point, its like the online catalog of everything you could possibly imagine and you can comprise it into your own virtual bulletin board. Pretty rad, plus you don't have to deal with all those stupid thumbtack holes when you move. You can find mine at https://www.pinterest.com/shmanda1 . Ill save you some time and break this down a little bit more. A few of my relevant boards are as follows...
