This project was a conceptual website for a land history search tool. This was a group project with the goal of presenting our ideas in a functional format to the museum of Clay County, Kansas. As a member of the "Mando" team, I designed the look and layout of the website. I also coded the HTML and CSS components. This project taught me how to create dynamic websites that can conform to both mobile and desktop views, an invaluable skill in today's mobile-first landscape.
This group project was requested by the Association of Airworthiness Professionals, Inc., who wanted to redesign their website and update it for modern devices. I conceptualized the layout of the site and the color palette. I designed and coded the home page and the career page, as well as the legal page and privacy policy pages.
The goal of this project was to demonstrate a grasp on basic Javascript by creating a program entirely in the language. I created HitStop, a point-and-click shooting game. The targets freeze every time you land a shot, and the game gets faster, so try to combo as many shots in a row as you can!
Nice to meet you! My name is Dylan Mangels. I'm a digital creator, specializing in web development, graphic design, and video editing. I aspire to think outside the box and use technology to tell the stories of the future. Hailing from Southwest Kansas, I draw most of my inspiration from music, nature, and the artistic cultures of people around the world. I yearn to be a lifelong learner, believing there is value in every experience. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, drawing, and listening to music. Thanks for coming by!
This interview was conducted with civil servant and current city councilman Greg Lenkiewicz of Salina, KS. I conducted, recorded, and edited the interview myself, using clips from my own recordings and from stock sources.
These videos were edited by me at the Kansas State University Salina Marketing Department, where I have been employed since 2022. These videos were edited together with Adobe Premiere Pro, using footage from both interviews and photoshoots.
The goal of this project was to redesign a poster for a popular film. I chose Bee Movie, a 2007 Dreamworks animated movie. I let the theming of the film guide my design, drawing on the two worlds of Barry B. Benson: the hive and the city.
These ads were created by me at the K-State University Salina Marketing Department as part of a collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology. These ads promoted their UAS 3D Mapping Challenge, and were featured on social media.
These animations were created by me using Adobe Animate at the K-State University Salina Marketing Department for the campus Giphy account.
