The Client:
Rocket Rentals specialises in the rental of broadcast
quality camera & sound equipment for the television industry. They
also operate a separate division "Rocket Crews" that hire out
camera & sound crews.
The Requirement:
The client wished to expand the business by creating
an online catalogue, as well a demonstrating that they were a dynamic
operation.
The Solution:
We built a mixed site using Macromedia Flash for the main elements and Macromedia Ultradev to create the
catalogue pages in ASP.
Content to most of the Flash pages was loaded from external text files
which made them very easy to main. All of the information elements on
the Flash pages were also contained in separate movies which meant that
the main movie loaded very quickly.
The catalogue pages were updated via online forms.

Client Comments
One of the many ways you have been of great value to me is in your ability
to research problems that you don't have an immediate answer to.
Your fees are very good value and as a result Rocket developed a site
that was both cost efficient and very easy to navigate. One of the pieces
of feedback that we have had is that our site is very easy and fast to
negotiate.
You listen and aren't afraid of suggestions that we make to modify the
site.

In mid 2002 an internal reorganisation in the company resulted in the
marketing function shifting to the Auckland office, who decided to revamp
the site with local designers.
