International Student Experience

Background

Boston University created a YouTube channel to share varied perspectives of graduate school. This was exceptionally valuable for connecting with an international audience.

Problem

The YouTube channel was far removed from the Graduate Education website. This made it hard to drive conversions. They needed a way to share students’ unique perspectives that could easily drive to the enrollment process.

Solution

Interactive Design created video listing and video single templates. These templates allow the site admins to embed videos into their site.

We also created created a video slider to highlight videos on their existing landing pages.

My Role

I was the back end developer on the project. I created the video listing and video single templates. I used cmb2 fields to allow site admins to embed videos without coding.

I was also a resource for making sure the front end output was perfect for the designer to style.

Lastly I made the back end of the video slider to allow site admins to create interactive JQuery sliders without coding.
