Interactive Irish history

• The Flight of the Earls

  Frank has worked with the BBC for over 5 years across various platforms from brand development to campaigns and programme titles.

  Commissioned by their Irish language unit, the BBC planned to assimilate historical content and re-purpose video footage into an e-learning portal for the BBC2 programme, Flight of the Earls.

  We teamed up with developers Pyxl and the BBC's Irish language department to interpret a linear three part narrative into a usable time-lined chronology. Together we created a web platform that supports and builds on the look and feel of the original programme content, enabling historical events outlined in the programme to be easily cross-referenced, digested and understood.

  A factual interactive account of ancient Ireland, the Flight of the Earls web platform offers a valuable source of knowledge for students, historians and linguists alike.
