Shot in Claude's Workshop
While in the South West of France I took a series of shots of my friend Claude Merlet to illustrate the process of restoring an antique armoire. I took these and created a small video to showcase his work.
Frame from the 3D animation
Originally part of an interactive flash piece for the Managed Hosting Service micro-site, I was asked to create 4 animations to illustrate various concepts around the service. I extended a 2D mock-up, created by Dave Huffman at STC, using server racks of various sizes to show scale. From there I created the 3 other visual renderings.
You can view both original mock-ups and final renderings in the video below.
Detail of the GUI
Flash Video doesn’t need an introduction. Thanks to sites like YouTube, Flash is the de facto solution for deploying videos online. On top of leveraging the Flash player install base it offers excellent scripting to allow for interactive video applications.
Globalnumberportability.org’s flash demo uses Flash Video and incorporates a navigation and close captioning to synch the text with the animation. It also includes navigation controls to jump to a specific section. It uses an XML playlist that also include the copy for captions and cue points info.
I created both design and animations for the videos. These were produced in Flash and exported as videos.
