Human Agency: Website Design & Development
Problem
The Human Agency’s website and brand had become outdated and no longer reflected the range and quality of their services. Their website lacked the functionality they required to run their business efficiently and had become a barrier to attracting new talent and clients.
Project goals
The large challenge going into this project was scope. The new website needed to manage marketing, recruitment, talent directories, and extensive talent management tools. With that in mind, I approached the project much like a startup; creating a loose framework for the overall vision then defining a narrow MVP to be rolled out and tested before building wider functionality.
Information architecture: Wire-framing played an important role in determining how the various user groups, both from outside and inside the business, would navigate and utilize the website together. It also enabled me to plan how future functionality could integrate and therefore avoid potential conflicts as the site expanded.
Marketing: Based on user research and google keyword analysis, I designed and wrote various keyword focused landing pages to attract and convert new talent and clients.
Talent directories: Five separate talent directories were needed. Each directory required unique data to be collected, displayed, and available to search, with members often having a profile in multiple directories. How the data was collected, presented, and searched also varied greatly depending on a user's role.
Talent submissions: When a talent agent receives a new casting call, they have a very short amount of time to make a ‘submission’ to the casting director. These submissions are sent via email and can include multiple roles and a wide variety of information. I designed and built a bespoke submission workflow so admins could quickly and easily create, edit, and send submissions.
