Student at Sessions University Creates Haunting Website From Scratch for Halloween Celebration
Justin Moss, a current web design student at Sessions, is embarking on a new journey in his career by creating his own website to further his web design aspirations. This decision comes after a significant event in his life - he was recently hired to design a website for a Halloween themed ride/theatrical experience at Real Live Adventures.
The project required someone with the necessary skills to build a website that would complement the immersive experience of the Halloween-themed attraction. To bring this vision to life, Justin utilised a combination of tools such as the Bootstrap framework in Adobe Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Justin's confidence in his marketing background, coupled with his growing passion for web design, has driven him to aim high. He aspires to make high-quality websites accessible to small businesses, a goal he believes will help these businesses thrive in the digital age.
In the process of creating the Halloween website, Justin improved upon elements from his previous assignments. For instance, he enhanced the accordion on the FAQs page and implemented a "grow" transition on the About Us page. These improvements not only showcase his technical skills but also his ability to adapt and innovate.
The success of the Halloween website has not gone unnoticed. Three other businesses have already reached out to Justin for help with their own websites, a testament to his growing reputation in the field.
Justin's web design journey, however, hasn't been without its challenges. He was part of the second round of layoffs at his previous company, where he had been working for the past five years. After the layoff, Justin took a month off for his mental health before diving back into the job market. Despite numerous job openings, he found it difficult to secure a new position.
Despite these setbacks, Justin found solace in web design. He discovered a joy in building functional websites and finds satisfaction in solving web design challenges. This newfound passion, coupled with his determination, has propelled him to consider web design as a potential professional pursuit.
As Real Live Adventures transitions their Halloween themed park into a Holiday themed park and ride, Justin's work continues to be a significant part of the experience. With his skills, creativity, and determination, Justin Moss is poised to make a significant impact in the world of web design.
Leveraging technology and fueled by his passion for education-and-self-development, Justin Moss aims to expand his career-development in web design by creating his own website to offer high-quality website solutions for small businesses. His mastery of tools like Bootstrap, Adobe Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript was on full display during the creation of a Halloween-themed website for Real Live Adventures.
