Rocket Films Africa

Rocket Films Africa required a visually impressive minimalist site in which full screen background images changed contextually. Over and above this, we made sure that the background images scale to the size of the browser, and that the user is also able to quick cycle through these images by clicking on the background.

The client’s previous site was difficult, time-consuming and expensive for them to update. We have now built them a fully customized site based on WordPress where they can effortlessly manage themselves.

Some of the features of the new site are:

  • Easily add background images to specific pages and choose the order in which they are shown
  • Allow the client to easily and intuitively add, edit and sort their work portfolio, locations, talent, and team members. We achieved this by creating custom post types and sections in the admin panel for all of these types of content.
  • A fully fledged blog

We are very happy with the beautifully designed site created for us by The Forge. They have more than met our expectations on the functionality, were quick to offer solutions or alternatives and have provided us with a site we can manage ourselves.” ~ Christene (Project Coordinator) Rocket Films Africa.
