It&#8217;s awesome to be recognized alongside big-budget brands like these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m happy to add this site to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.invouq.com\/portfolio\/\">my portfolio<\/a>.  I have been fortunate to win a few other website awards that you can also check out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brandyn is an author, musician, and filmmaker. His website needed to highlight these different aspects of his career.  He&#8217;s also an &#8217;80s kid.  Our challenge was to imagine what a website built in the &#8217;80s would have looked like.  Of course, this was well before the internet was around so it was a fun challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This website integrates with Brandyn&#8217;s social media channels. It showcases his books and YouTube videos and integrates with his email marketing provider, Constant Contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Black Chateau Enterprises<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The folks at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackchateauenterprises.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Chateau<\/a> are award-winning PR and marketing professionals.  They&#8217;re great to work with.  If you need help marketing your book they have a ton of services to offer you. I highly recommend them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A website that I built for Brandyn Cross, along with the good folks at Black Chateau Enterprises, won a Canopus Award from Vega Awards.
