We Got a Pulse! were approached by our
friendly mutual
web and
print design agency: Verto. Verto often approach We Got a Pulse!
to outsource exciting
Flash projects to get their teeth into.
WGAP! were asked to produce a
Flash
animated interactive system for users to customise their personal cheques for 'The Tall Group of
Companies - Check Print'. The Tall Group of Companies was founded in 1991 and 1993 respectively and
are the UK's leading provider of Business Cheques, Credits and Secure encoded Document
Solutions.
One of the specialist features on the site was the ability to allow users
to design their own company cheques online. The concept allows users to navigate through a step-by-step
process including the ability to:
- Enter company details i.e. name and
address
- Choose a selection of templates
- Choose an example logo and manipulate
font types and colours
- Choose a personalised watermark pattern from a selection of 6 in 5
colours
- Create various output options such as print a sample or submit a preview to Tall
Group.
Whilst manipulating each step, the cheque is previewed in large on the site in
real-time, also providing the user with detailed instructions in how best to create their cheque. It
was important that the interactive piece was as user-friendly as possible, which was encapsulated in a
tab system, as well as easily navigatable arrows allowing the user to jump from the previous and next
step with ease. The piece also had to fit in perfectly with the existing Tall Group of Companies
site.
The project was delivered in an extremely timely fashion with virtually no
amends and can be found
