Revamping Rocky Mountain PBS's Digital Experience

Introduction

Over a million Coloradans turn to Rocky Mountain PBS to discover provocative and inspiring local, national and international programs.

Three tablet screens display different sections of a streaming service interface, showing popular programs, trending content, and an "About Us" page.
Two iPhone screens display a PBS app interface showing program schedules, news articles, and a featured story about Colorado ecosystem research.
A promotional webpage for Rocky Mountain PBS advertises a free mobile stage concert by the Wildwood Reed Trio in Durango and Pagosa Springs.

Challenges & Solutions

Their website was outdated, with complex information architecture and an archaic CMS, which limited usability and content management.

A mobile app interface shows a TV programming schedule with shows like "Dynamic Planet," "Hope in the Water," and "NOVA" displayed in HD with 60-minute durations.
A webpage showcases three media channels under the Rocky Mountain Public Media umbrella: KUVO Jazz, The Drop, and Rocky Mountain PBS, each with their own description and call-to-action button.
A MacBook displays a content scheduling interface with multiple video thumbnails and time slots arranged in a vertical timeline format.

Does your CMS keep up with your newsroom?

Rocky Mountain PBS publishes a constant stream of stories on a platform built to handle it. If yours can’t, let’s talk.
