American Business Data Science
American Business Data Science launched in early 2020 to offer online courses in data science.
I set up all the social media pages and created the branding elements, wrote and art directed web ads (visual, video and audio), edited blog posts, led creative ideation sessions, designed a logo, purchased ad buys and monitored data, worked on investor decks, managed external vendors and designed a diploma. I also Zoom-directed the first course instructor as she recorded the class lectures on her phone from her home office, and I was a member of the team who set up the first course in Canvas.
In the process, I learned a great amount about startups and online course offerings.
30-Second Web Video - Taye
How do you film a web video during a pandemic lockdown? I wrote the scripts for use in social media at the height of the first wave of the COVID pandemic.
Web Radio
I wrote and recorded a radio ad with click-thru banner, then placed it on Pandora and Spotify, and monitored the media data.
30-Second Web Video - Jenn
I directed the volunteer actors (who were actually team members) as they recorded themselves on their own webcams. Then I recorded the voiceover.
Meet the First Course Instructor
Just before the lockdown, I conducted two on-camera interviews. The first showcased the course instructor’s expertise.
30-Second Web Video - Noah
Each short video featured a different member of the target audience and pointed out different benefits of beginning the journey to a career in data science.
Success Story - Jeff the Intern
The other interview featured an ABDS intern, to show the value for students of studying and learning data science.
