The official promotional site for the Picturehouse movie Pan’s Labyrinth. The movie was one of Picturehouse's biggest hits, so the site had an unusually long lifespan. Even better, director Guillermo Del Toro and actor Doug Jones supplied us with a lot of pre-production materials and audio narration.

I was tasked with designing and building more advanced features than we typically had time and resources for, such as a streaming audio player for the entire soundtrack, a behind-the-scenes photo gallery with audio commentary by actor Doug Jones, and excerpts from director Guillermo Del Toro's notebooks. I even edited and narrated a podcast, a then-rare feature for a movie.

A separate “Journals of Imagination” microsite (not shown here) was created by the outside agency Deep Focus, and hosted on its own domain. Together, the two sites won the official Webby and People’s Choice Awards for Best Movie and Film Web Site of 2007. We attended the awards ceremony, and I got to see David Bowie and the Beastie Boys accept their awards in person. I'm proud of the work we did, but my personal suspicion is that quality of the actual film itself tipped the hands of the Webby Awards voting body.
