Overview
Titan Clydebank is a unique visitor experience. The 150ft
cantilever crane, built by William Arrol, sits by the site of the
old John Brown Shipyards in Clydebank as a symbol of Clydebank's
proud industrial heritage.
The view is outstanding and the exhibits are eye opening too.
From the audio tour from the Purser's office, up and along the
crane, around the exhibit, then back to the shop and café - it's a
great experience.
As part of the visitor attraction developments 2006-2009
Screenmedia won the tender to produce the visitor attraction's new
website to promote the tour and to encourage visitors to book
online.
Our approach to the site's redesign was to build a contemporary
and modern communication tool incorporating large graphic images of
the crane alongside elements of flash, animation and interactive
functionality. Visitors to the site are encouraged to take a tour
of the attraction and its facilities, view an interactive timeline
of the cranes history and learn more about the structure in 'Titan
Facts'. Further features include educational resources/information,
an image gallery and an online booking facility.
As part of the developments, we also produced the audio tour in
which Alex Norton (Taggart) recalls the story of the Titan
Clydebank and its part in the building of great ships such as the
Queen Mary and the QE2.
A great and inspirational project, with a great design and build
to match.
