Free HipHop Streaming Media Development

• Client : LandOnline Media Group
• Date : November 2016

FreeHipHop.com, an online media streaming service aimed at helping independent hip-hop artists promote their digital content.   A premium destination and official source for the latest Hip Hop music and videos.

I had the opportunity to collaborate with our friends from FreeHipHop.com and join their web team as a web producer responsible for the project management and development of their streaming service.   I coordinated the efforts of web, marketing and content development teams to provide solutions to the many challenges an online streaming service would produce.

The goal was to build one of the largest communities of music talent on the web.   Serve as a direct link between artists and fans alike while providing a promotional powerhouse for rising stars.

From a technical standpoint, the streaming platform required both strong design and heavy programming.  I worked on all visual aspects of the website from concept to realization, creating the initial style templates, storyboards, illustrations and the animations.
