This is a year long academic program lets students “sail a tall ship, explore new cultures, earn academic credits and make friends from around the world”.
The challenge was to provide comprehensive information about the program while engaging prospective students (and their decision-making parents) with a visually rich experience. Student generated content (images and videos) are featured throughout the website in order to reinforce a feeling of authenticity. Video, layered imagery and bespoke interactive elements all help to keep the site interesting and to communicate content in an engaging way.
