Channel 4: First World War Microsite

Overview

Working with WarkClements we produced this website to support the 10 part TV series based on Hugh Strachan's book series The First World War.

As a co-production with the TV production team we were able to plan, produce and integrate content derived from the TV production into the microsite. The production included the research and writing of over 400 screens of content supported by archive imagery with 100 maps and illustrations. And to add more life and colour we produced online videos, with each of the series directors, in which they provide their own unique insights and commentary of the series and the big issues covered by the programmes.

Produced in 2004, the site was Channel 4's largest digital commission of that year and remained one of the flagship microsites on Channel4.com up until the beginning of 2010.
