The Brief
The Bridport Prize is an international creative writing competition. Established in 1973, the competition is Bridport Arts Centre’s flagship project, with categories in poetry, short stories, novel writing and flash fiction. The Bridport Prize Team approached CuCo to develop an all-new website as well as a fresh brand identity. Attracting thousands of entries each year, from all corners of the globe, the website needed to be able to handle a higher volume of traffic – particularly in the last 24 hours before the competition deadline. The existing Bridport Prize website was built on Drupal and wasn’t mobile-friendly, whilst market research showed a pronounced move in the competition’s user preference from desktop to mobile devices. We needed to create a fully-responsive website worthy of one of the world’s biggest global literature competitions.
