An independent documentary needs more than a trailer page. The site has to earn the trust of donors, keep supporters engaged through a long production, and do justice to boats that are works of art in their own right.
What we built
A video-led home page that puts the film’s footage first
Photo and video galleries showcasing the boats and the people who care for them
News and speaking-event sections that keep the audience current as the film progresses
An awards page ready to grow with the film’s festival run
Crew, supporter and donor pages that give credit where it’s due
Newsletter sign-up and a direct path to donate through the film’s nonprofit fiscal sponsor
Fast, reliable hosting managed by Wicked Code
The result: A site that works as hard as the film’s crew: part screening room, part press kit, part fundraising tool. It gives a growing community of wooden boat lovers one place to follow the story and help get it told.
