Film Auckland launches innovative new website
Film Auckland, the film office for the Auckland region and for the Auckland Screen Production Industry, has launched a new and improved website.
The site, created by Auckland web design company Gravitate, features a unique navigation system which allows visitors to quickly access sector-specific information, which is relevant to their needs.
From the homepage the visitor will find five sector streams: features, television, commercials, post-production and gaming/animation. Clicking through, the visitor will receive all the information that is relevant to their needs without having to churn through unrelated information. Film Auckland believes this will be a big plus for busy film makers right across the industry.
Michael Brook, Executive Manager at Film Auckland, notes that the new navigation technique, "delivers a real point of difference for the site, and highlights our ability to meet international and local screen industry requirements."
The site - www.filmauckland.com - also features a completely new, eye-catching design. Visually iconic and stunning purpose-shot stills from Stephen Piper highlight and champion the locations the Auckland region has to offer.
Actual case studies for each sector highlight just how good it is to film in Auckland and the quality of product that comes out of the region. These have been written by senior film professionals involved in each production and include stills from the projects and importantly, video streaming of clips from the productions.
"The case studies for each sector are an important element for us. It is a great way for potential clients of Auckland to learn what can be achieved here by using actual, successful examples," says Michael Brook. "We are also very pleased about the addition of video files. After all, we are a moving image based industry and what better way for film makers to see what the region can produce that seeing the work itself."
Brook adds, "The new website will markedly enhance Film Auckland’s ability to market the Auckland Screen Production Industry and also Auckland as a screen destination. We believe the new site will provide an improved level of information for producers and interested parties to use as a practical and professional resource."
The new and improved Film Auckland website is now on line – www.filmauckland.com
