NSCC Voice
The Nashville State Voice is a monthly online newsletter targeted at faculty and staff. It is built on the WordPress platform. It was in a PDF file that was hosted on an internal server. Getting to the file was difficult for some. I proposed creating an online newsletter for the editor. He agreed. I created a mockup on my own WordPress site, and after approval, I worked with Computer Services at NSCC to create a new WordPress installation on their server.
I created the header and page template and managed the newsletter layout for each issue for several years before my retirement in 2023.
As with most projects, content comes in various formats (Word, PDF, txt, email). Images come in different file formats, sizes, and degrees of quality. Every image was optimized, adjusted for exposure, levels, and color, then cropped and sized in PhotoShop. Every piece of content was formatted, checked for grammar, spelling, and flow, and then copied and pasted into WordPress blocks.
