Introduction

Here for the drama is a London-based acting academy founded by Eastenders Milly Zero, who plays Dotty Cotten in the show. Having experienced the difficulties in finding affordable acting classes, led by active industry actors, Milly decided to create a company to fill that space. Together, with support from her partner, Ransom FA - a London-based Lyricist and sports personality, we brought that vision to life.

Key Solutions Provided for Here For The Drama

We designed the website using a retro theme to produce a fun environment that appealed to both students and parents. We also setup several automations with Zapier to handle form submissions, signups and facebook ads leads, drastically simplifying their lead management. To maintain performance animations were built using GSAP and custom javascript and we kept these to a minimal so information was easily accessible.

We didn't just want the website to look good, we also intended it to be highly converting. To achieve this we created consistent layouts that had proper visual, and HTML hierarchy, and highly specific keywords were selected to optimise SEO. Within a week of launching they were on page 1 of Google for some of their chosen keywords with simple structural updates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Unfortunately we don't. Webflow templates are great to test proof of concept or to get something that looks nice up and running quickly. Developing a unique creative direction, embedding scalable systems that consider the growth trajectory of a business, and creating robust design systems are constrained when using templates.
