Artifact: “Little Big Bend” Web Page
This artifact was the the first news release that I produced. Although the news article is short I learned a great deal in the process. This served as my introduction to using the AP style guide as an editing tool. I specifically learned the proper way to site the title of a book, organization and title references in a new release. I learned how to use the prexisting templates to develop Web pages for the TTU Web site, specifically I learned what elements are universal and what elements must by customized for each story.
The most valuable aspect of producing this story was that I learned the syntax used by the OCM when saving Web pages and other content to the server, to be used on the TTU website. This served as an important lesson because using a constant “naming” scheme for Web Pages and content allows a team of developers to easily locate each others work on a server.
