Say hello to our shiny new blog
05. July, 2024 - Written by Cedric Kim
The Studio Countdown Blog is here! We’ll be posting longer updates and more right here on our very own blog on our very own website. We have lots of new stuff to share with all of you over the coming months, for Countdown to Countdown: Animated and beyond. Wondering why it took us this long? Feel free to read below!
To put it simply, our website was originally not built with blogging in mind. The Studio Countdown website was developed with no support for proper templates - so changing the design of blog pages would involve changing every blog page individually. All changes to the website previously required writing and re-writing large chunks of code which was inefficient and obviously not very practical for blogging. To fix this issue, we had to re-make large parts of the entire website from scratch. This version of our website might look the same, but the entire backend (the part you don’t see) has been overhauled.
The past few months have admittedly been somewhat hectic here at Studio Countdown, and we wanted to make sure any major workloads unrelated to actual animation would only start once at least a rough plan for the next 3 months was laid out.
