<p>With Christmas fast approaching &#8216;tis the season of panto&#8217;. Curve Leicester&#8217;s Christmas production of the classical Peter Pan is destined for success.</p>

<p>We were approached my the Curve to produce a fun and exciting game based on their Christmas Production of Peter Pan. (Thanks for the referral from our friends at <a href="http://www.work-design.co.uk" title="Work Design" target="_blank">Work Design</a>)</p>

<p>Our storyboard/synopsis started with the open sea and the galleon of Hook, with his pirates taking centre stage. Peter flies around the ship while Hook and his Pirates throw numerous objects to knock him down. The aim of the game is to gain a highscore and beat your friends. Along the way there are score bonuses and special bonuses to collect, which all account to your total score. At any time you are able to pause the game to continue later and are able to forward the game to a friend to compete against each other.</p>

<p>Notts County Cricket Club kickstarted the season with a bang and naturally the website followed suit. </p>

<p>A new redesign was put in place to drive focus on up and coming fixtures as well as match reports on the most recent games. The new fixtures calendar, uses JSON technology to keep the calendar up to date, it is a much lighter platform than XML and much more compatible with different mediums. </p>

<p>With a new flash feature to highlight the latest news giving a more uplifting homepage along with a more vibrant colour scheme, this also followed through to a new Email Template Design. We also implemented a new media player was introduced for Video casts as well as Podcasts and a live feed from the Trent Bridge, Twitter.</p>

<p>During the Twenty20 World Cup we produced a Microsite to promote the venue due to slow sales. Utilising our Email Marketing Suite and sending E-shots to their 30000+ member mailing list, within 2 weeks we had received 80 000 unique visits to the Microsite and tickets had sold out.</p>

<p>We have many more features lined up for the NCCC Website, so watch this space.</p>

<p>Behind the scenes is a fully content managed site which gives GWH full control of their website. General news, articles and projects can all be created, edited as required. There is also a specific module which allows them to feature any of their project gallery images on the homepage.</p>

        <p>Nottingham based Go dine offers a new free online restaurant booking service which takes out the hassle of finding a suitable restaurant in your area and also gives the user a detailed overview of the dining experience. In collaboration with Web Developer Tony Hearn and working closely with Go dine Director Adam Roberts we knuckled down to produce a useable, functional and informative website.</p>

<p>To produce the website we had 3 main challenges which were to produce a front end interface which would appeal and function to the consumer market, secondly an administration area for restauranteurs to update their restaurant details, photographs, special offers and also reveal up to date restaurant bookings, and thirdly an administration area for Go Dine staff to confirm bookings with the restaurants and send out automated details and reminders to the customers.</p>

<p>The key to the growing success has been the close relationship between the team and the consistency of revisiting the site as a whole, to the in keeping of seasonal updates in the same way as a restaurant’s menu.</p>

        <p>With the success of Nottinghamshire County Cricket Clubs promotion to Division One it was essential to design a new look and further develop facilities on the website. We integrated functionality for Podcasts, news updates, related news and event linking, team profiles and a juniors section. The new shop also allows a much simpler ordering process with secure payments via debit and credit cards. </p>

<p>The persistence of updated news, match reports and raising awareness of upcoming news and events via our online email marketing software draws the user in to return to the site.</p>

<p>Since the revamp we have seen a 15% increase of unique visitors with an average of 3000 > 4000 unique visits per day and a peak of 11419 unique visits from a single day in October.</p>
