Copywriting for Casio

  • Annabel Herrick
This year I took on a huge project to rewrite Casio’s Edifice website. Translated from Japanese, their web copy needed a lot of work and a shot of personality.
I developed their tone of voice guidelines and worked with the producer to follow the content strategy and write it all from scratch. Everything from the ‘about’ pages to product descriptions had to tie back to the connection with Formula 1. This meant I learnt a lot about the mechanics of watches (Tachometers anyone?) and race cars. Not my forte, but now I have so much brain fodder for pub quizzes!
We had 39 pages total and the client came back with three comments . Needless to say I was delighted. The new website is launching in late spring.
