❖ TEDxBoulder - Framer Site ❖
Jorge Zamora
✦ About TEDxBoulder ✦
One of the largest TEDx events in the world, TEDxBoulder has been a cornerstone of the Boulder community since 2010. Each fall, 2,200 attendees gather to hear world-class speakers share their experiences and ideas. The event's impact is profound, with six talks being reedited and featured on TED.com. TEDxBoulder is a highly valued community event, consistently selling out every year.
✦ Overview ✦
TEDxBoulder sought to modernize their online presence while maintaining the familiar aesthetic and structure of their previous WordPress-based site. My role was to lead the comprehensive reconstruction of their website, transitioning it to a dynamic Framer platform. This included character-perfect imports of speaker information and videos, some dating back to 2010. The final product is a live, fully functional site, which was met with positive reactions for its adherence to the original design's look and feel.
✦ Key Achievements ✦
- Successfully reconstructed and imported TEDxBoulder's extensive content library, ensuring all videos and speaker information were accurately transferred.
- Maintained a similar aesthetic and structure to the old site, which was ultimately met with good reactions from the TEDxBoulder community.
- The transition from WordPress, specifically from a Divi-based structure, to Framer was executed with precision, despite the challenges posed by the manual import of content that could not be exported traditionally.
- Completed the Framer development with minimal revisions, delivering a live, fully functional site.
✦ Challenges ✦
- Cleaned and prepared content from the WordPress export, addressing inconsistencies and ensuring a seamless import into Framer.
- Manually imported content from the Divi library, overcoming the limitations of the export process to ensure all legacy videos and speaker details were retained.
