BASKETBALL TV (2007) www.btv.com .ph Design technology: CSS, Javascript , Flash, SEO Software: Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash This site is rich in content, so the challenge was how to create balance between design and content. To handle the flow of the content I made a 3 columm layout and I used a grid as a guide when putting content enlclosed in boxes. To achieve a neat look I adjusted the leading for the copy to create some room and space and used red, white and blue as the color theme, just like the channel’s logo.
