The campaign has been in the works for some time, but after some development hiccups with the original partner, Bluegrass was called in to take over management and redesign the campaign website. The goal for the agency will be to make sure that the website is fully scalable, and flexible enough to handle functional requirements for each campaign in the future. To do this, Bluegrass implemented the site using the Umbraco Content Management System, which - among other things - will allow the implementation of Google Maps features to be managed by the client.
Bluegrass' New Business Director Nick Durrant says that he hopes the Name Your Hood campaign will eventually move beyond the boundaries of Cape Town, and that the team will be working closely with Name Your Hood after it launches. "The next big campaign is the renaming of the hoods in Gugulethu which begins in a few months' time. This is going to run in conjunction with a street renaming process being handled by the Western Cape government...We are looking to integrate a Xhosa language version amongst some other exciting components!"
