Distraction work on next-generation site for Liz Hobbs Group
27 November 2009
Design by Distraction are working with Liz Hobbs Group to develop a world-class website for a world-class organisation.
Liz Hobbs Group represents artists, produces and organises concerts and events catering for audiences from 1,500 to 150,000, as well as organising parties, celebrations and weddings, and arranging after-dinner speakers.
A next-generation website is being developed to showcase their talents and capabilities and this will make full use of the latest technologies, including an exciting new interface, streaming video, and artists section, all controllable from a centralised CMS (content management system) that allows members of the team to take control of their own zones.
A new marketing/extranet system is also being developed on the back-end of the website, giving a professional appearance and being the first port of call for many clients and support teams involved in the events organised by Liz Hobbs Group.
The group is headed by Liz Hobbs MBE, probably the country's best-known female water-skier of all time. She became British Champion 7 times and went on to become undefeated World Water-Ski Racing Champion at 21 years old. Liz has also presented exclusively for Yorkshire Television, Radio 2 and Sky Sports. She went on to produce and direct before concentrating on developing Liz Hobbs Group.
Design by Distraction are delighted to be working Liz Hobbs GroupĀ and are confident about delivering a world-class website.
