New Website Integral to DIFF's Objectives of Promoting Film as a Platform for Cross-cultural Understanding and Harmony.
Dubai - Flip Media, the region's leading, independent interactive marketing agency has been selected by Dubai International Film Festival to redesign their website. The account was won after a competitive pitch involving several local agencies.
The new www.dubaifilmfest.com website was launched at the beginning of September and features a fresh and contemporary visual design and easy to use navigation. Reinforcing the festival theme of "Bridging Cultures, Meeting Minds" www.dubaifilmfest.com has a wealth of information tailored to the differing audiences of the festival.
The website has been developed in both English and Arabic languages and forms an informative and interactive channel of communication. Film producers are able to submit applications of films for screening, volunteers and the media can register online and there is extensive information for visitors to Dubai about local customs, activities and accommodation. Information regarding sponsorship opportunities can also be found on the site.
Furthermore, film-goers will be able to preview film schedules and reserve and purchase tickets online in advance. The Press area of the website has undergone significant enhancement following feedback from the media and has greater resources and accessibility. www.dubaifilmfest.com also features archives of news and photos from last year's festival.
Martin Diessner, CEO, Flip Media said "The whole team at Flip Media are excited to have been appointed by Dubai International Film Festival to redesign and develop the website for this year's film festival. It's great to see that DIFF's senior management are committed to online as a primary communication channel and the new website has significant improvements added to make users experiences more enriched."
The second Dubai International Film Festival will be held between the 11th and 17th December 2005. For further information about Flip Media, please visit www.flipcorp.com
