EVA Records

Music Video & Production Company Website

Overview

EVA Records is the corporate website and content management system for a music-video and content production company, the production sister brand of EVA Management. It presents the company's craft (music videos, commercials and post-production) through a portfolio-led marketing site and hands the team a custom admin panel to keep every showcase current. I built the full stack, from schema to deployment, as a freelance engagement.

What It Does

The public site shows a production portfolio built around embedded YouTube works, organized by category with featured highlights, alongside services, artists, team and founder pages and an editorial blog. A settings-driven content model lets the homepage, about section, service descriptions and process copy be edited without redeploying. A bespoke admin panel behind cookie-based authentication manages projects, services, artists, team, founders, blog posts and global site settings.
