2004 Portland Lindy Exchange

Written by: aurelius at 4:35 pm in the Web category.

In 2004, I worked with a creative team to implement the web site for a local swing dance event. The organizers had developed a dragon logo and an Oriental theme which I integrated the web site’s design which provided event information and registration to participants coming from all over the country.

The lindy hop is a swing dance originally popularized in the 1920s. It experienced a resurgence in the late 1990s in cities across the world. A lindy exchange is a weekend-long dance event where dancers from all over the country are welcomed to a local dance community for shows, performances, events, and, of course, dancing. I worked on the Website for the Portland Lindy Exchange since 2001. 2004’s exchange was the third official Portland exchange.

This site was a last-minute project to promote a social dance event bringing in swing dancers from other cities to Portland, OR for a dance weekend.

Site was designed in DreamWeaver. HTML was finished in Homesite and Notepad. Logos and images created in Illustrator and back-end Cold Fusion interface was coordinated through Swingout Productions.
