Dainty Productions worked with the iconic Hinterland’s Who’s Who to bring 50 years of video content, games, and interactive real-world activities to iOS and Android. We set out to introduce a new generation to Canada’s wildlife heritage through engaging characters, animated segments, and mini games.
From concept and character design to development and launch, our team built the entire experience. We crafted interactive features and an intuitive user interface designed specifically for young audiences. Behind the scenes, we developed an OTT backend solution to stream over 50 years of HWW content, and the app continues to be updated annually to remain fully compliant with the latest iOS and Android versions.
The app features:
Over 50 years of Hinterland’s Who’s Who educational video content
- Over 50 years of HWW educational video content
- Select articles from HWW magazine, with a backend interface for easy content uploads
- 100+ interactive animal fact cards with real photos and videos
- A collection of HTML5 mini games (also produced by Dainty Productions) integrated directly from the HWW website
- A badge collection system and camera-based scavenger hunt that lets kids photograph real-world items from a discovery list
- A 360° virtual nature area where users explore ecenes and tap animal characters to reveal facts
- Fully bilingual interface supporting both English and French
