Inspiring Visitors and Capturing the Story
Girl Rising is a global movement to change perceptions about girls around the world. Educating girls can break cycles of poverty in just one generation, yet millions of girls aren’t in school. Girl Rising uses storytelling to inspire action that gets girls into classrooms worldwide.
The team behind Girl Rising wanted their film’s companion site to encourage users to
take a series of actions: learn more about the movement, reserve a screening ticket, and join a community that is rallying around the cause.DevelopmentNow built an impressive responsive companion site for the Girl Rising film that had to withstand the estimated traffic load and inspire users to support the Girl Rising movement through storytelling.
