Waitemata Film Company is a top film production company based in Auckland, NZ.
The primary requirement for their website is to showcase their fantastic work. However their previous website
used flash-based videos which couldn't be viewed on iPhones, iPads etc and the time had come to provide
support for those devices and make the website more intuitive to use. Additionally, Waitemata Films wanted to be able to
manage the videos themselves by choosing what videos would appear where and when throughout the site.
Smart Bomb and Waitemata Films decided to let the beautiful videos be the "look" of the site.
This was achieved by creating a stripped-back layout that showcases the videos front and centre.
Waitemata Films already had their videos on
Vimeo so Smart Bomb integrated the Vimeo videos into the website.
This gives Waitemata Films complete control over which videos appear on each page by leveraging the power of Vimeo's
back end and content delivery network.
Smart Bomb also made sure the site is "responsive" so that it displays in a friendly format on all devices.
Techs used:
Javascript, jQuery, Vimeo API, Bootstrap, Less, HTML5, CSS
Meshh is a clothing store based in Byron Bay, Australia.
They chose Smart Bomb to design and build a shopping cart solution with full
back-end administration capabilities. Smart Bomb also provided
consultation services to advise on a suitable online payment processing solution
that would meet Meshh's requirements.
The challenge was to build a product catalogue and shopping cart system that
would be dynamic but that would consistently fit within the static oval shape of the
design. And the back-end staff administration website needed to be
intuitive and easy for staff to learn, while providing full functionality.
Smart Bomb listened carefully to Meshh's requirements
and designed a solution that would give all their website users - customers
and staff, a thoroughly satisfying web experience.
Meshh are thrilled with the result and their designer commented that Smart Bomb
seemed to get everything right first time.
Vetcare Tauranga is at the forefront of New Zealand's animal care sector with three busy clinics catering to the Tauranga area.
They came to Smart Bomb for help with their existing site that was running
slowly and in need of some instant fixes to repair broken links and update
content.
Smart Bomb diagnosed that the slow performance was caused by the existing
content management system which was making slow work of pulling page content
from the database and rendering it as html.
After extracting all the content and converting the
site to run on the .Net framework, page-load times are now lightning fast - just
the way they should be. To remedy broken location map links, Smart Bomb created modal popups for
displaying
location maps integrated with Google Maps to display visually
appealing maps with drag and zoom capabilities.
Vetcare Tauranga also wanted to start selling products online and asked Smart
Bomb to advise on a shopping cart solution that would suit their immediate
requirements while keeping in mind their plans for the future.
Smart Bomb came up with short and long-term e-commerce plans that got Vetcare Tauranga selling online
very quickly through a third party shopping cart provider with a view to bringing
e-commerce operations fully in-house in the future.
The Wholesale Nappy Company operate a busy online store providing nappies and
baby products throughout New Zealand. They needed a simple-but-effective
shopping cart and chose Smart Bomb to design and build it.
To simplify product updates and order fulfilment, a back-end administration area
was created for easy viewing of orders and modification of product pricing and
availability.
After a few years of growing their operation in New
Zealand, The Wholesale Nappy Co franchised themselves into Australia and called
on Smart Bomb to manage their expansion into the .com.au online territory.
This involved replicating the site for Australia and working with an Australian
courier company to synchronise freight-charging throughout the vast Australian
continent.
With help from Smart Bomb the Wholesale Nappy Co now have a business page on
Facebook and are continuing to build their business.
