Audience are locals in the film industry and people who are looking forward to the web series release. What is the website s purpose? How will you meet the user s needs / educate them? Website s purpose is to inform on the progress of the web series and what it is about. There will be links to where you can buy the book the series is based on, information about the production company, author, actors and series progress.

2 Wireframes Inspiration: I looked at many different film websites and gave the producers links to some of the better designed sites for inspiration. They really liked the look of The Hobbit website, and wanted to go with something similar in style and layout. Official movie websites tend to look very different from a business website and also tend to have more creative and unorthodox navigation. Most movie websites don t have standard global navigation bars at the top of page, and instead rely on a local navigation to the side. They are also generally fit to the screen area and don t scroll down, so any text that is longer has it s own scroll bar. HOME STORY CAST FILMMAKERS VIDEOS GALLERY

5 Quiet Canadians is a novel written by local author Warren Thompson. The novel is about Canada s fictional spy agency and their involvement in covert activities. I printed Warren s novels at my previous job and he put me in contact with Habthey Film Productions to work on their graphic and web design projects. The Quiet Canadians is a fictional look into Canada s involvement in covert and clandestine activities. It presents a view of how operatives are recruited into the profession and trained. Based on the novel by Warren Thompson, the story follows an operative fresh from a recent operation that has left him with a secret enemy to thwart. The Producers have adapted this novel into a serialized drama for the web. As the series progresses, flashbacks to the operative s young life and how he was recruited and trained into this profession will inform the person he needs to be in order to face this dangerous opponent. Action Genre Lovers - Through our involvement on action, spy and martial arts websites, facebook groups and forums, we are engaging with fans of the genre to get them to watch the episodes online as they are released. The Quiet Canadians style is inspired by the Hong Kong martial arts films and recent spy thrillers like Bridge of Spies, and the creators have engaged with several stunt coordinators and consultants to ensure the action and stakes are high-quality and as realistic as possible, which should delight action and spy thriller fans alike. < Red scroll bar indicates there is more text to scroll through About the Author: Warren Thompson
