RiO — Bringing a Performer’s Identity to the Web

For a performer who combines violin and dance, the website should give visitors a sense of her personality while making her music and activities easy to explore.

What I value most is the care behind that balance. A memorable experience matters, but so do the smaller decisions: letting visitors choose whether to enable sound, adapting the carousel to a smaller screen, and allowing them to start a video when they are ready.

The frontend uses HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery, with Slick Carousel for responsive slides and Modal Video for YouTube overlays. The carousel displays three items on larger screens and switches to one on mobile, giving each item room to remain readable.

News, a schedule calendar, an artist profile, and performance history bring RiO’s activities together. Links to tickets, music, merchandise, and social channels help visitors take the next step.

The dedication behind this kind of work lives in the details—how content fits the screen, how media opens, and how naturally someone can move from discovering the artist to following her work. My priority is to give the artist’s personality space while respecting the visitor’s time and control.
