Portfolio site of Anonymous, Paris based digital production agency. Really cool site, fresh and modern – with lots of nice touches. Love the masking of the thumbnails and the splitting of the page to reveal the project detail inline – clicking and dragging through the images – gives it all an ‘appy’ feel. Really like the way they have arranged the projects chronologically and scrolling reveals a sticky element showing year following the scroll bar. Some amazing work in there too, all presented in an interesting way in a cool interface.

Control Films

Simple and clean portfolio site of Control Films a boutique commercial / music video production agency based in Paris. Minimal layout and elegant concept – thumbnails play when interacted with, and when pressed scrolls you back to the top of the page where the video splits the page and begins playing. Clean and minimal and does the job well.

Portfolio site of London based design shop YCN Studio. Minimal & clean site which does the job really well in a quick and effective way. Really like the way the information linked to the project scrolls with the visuals, and the next project fades in from below. Incredibly simple and elegant.

Nice site for Diesel and their ‘5 Pockets’ jean collection for men. Browse the type of jeans from textured, light, and blue – bringing you the range through a vertical scroll layout. Looking at the detail reveals a quasi-3d effect, with the model  static but small graphic elements re-acting to your mouse position. Like the transitions from overview to detail view and the interesting layout and cool effects.

New portfolio site for Luke Finch, interactive Art Director. Nice offset grid with well considered imagery, clean and minimal layout – with accompanying visuals to explain responsive behaviour and so on. Like the homepage where you pan your view based on mouse position, and the clear transition to view the project. A really diverse body of too, from snowboard graphics to responsive website design. Great example of modern polished portfolio site…

Wrangler Spring / Summer 2013

Wrangler Spring / Summer 2013

Site promoting the Male 2013 Spring / Summer collection of Wrangler Europe. Essentially a really cool interactive gallery of models wearing the clothing line. Featuring semi-surreal scenes where the movement of your cursor controls your perspective and when you click and drag you control the movement of the model – so from rotating, to moving across the screen. The execution is fantastic, love the 3d style perspective which can be influenced by your mouse – really adds to the feeling of depth. Really cool animations and a thick layer of polish…

The Messi Matrix

Messi Matrix

Fascinating site showing football player Messi’s stats – all centred around a 3d exploratory interface. Fantastic execution, with a 3d football and animated infographics, love moving around and panning the viewpoint. Love the transition from ball view to information view – the ball explodes revealing the information. The attention to detail is incredible, even when you change the timescale the figures on the ball update accordingly. At certain angles lens flares glow, with dust particles moving around all in all great experiential site.

Nice site for Heine / Lenz / Zizka – a German branding studio. Presented in a large grid of projects which you can zoom in and out of to explore the range of work they have created. Clicking on projects allows you to drill down and look through the various designs, love the way when you move your mouse to one side the screen slightly moves to illustrate there is more to explore. Really nice layout and works nicely – fun to explore and good to look at!

Portfolio of Danish photo retouching studio ELI. One of my favourite features of the site is the way you navigate through the images in each section – scrolling within one of the strips or dragging the title bar. Love the transitions between sections with well considered animation and all wrapped up in a clean and minimal interface.

Digital Creativity Guidebook

Digital Creativity Guidebook

 

A guidebook from Google to highlight the creative possibilities of the digital world with Google. Love the concept of a 3d pop up book, with various scenes showing possibilities such as street view, mobile, YouTube. The scenes are not only animated they are also interactive. There are various ‘pull’ tabs which trigger actions in the scene such as in Google maps, pull the tab and your view goes into street view. Also love how the movement of the pages is linked to your mouse which provides a very tactile interactive experience. All done in CSS / Javascript – really quite amazing.

Magic City

Magic City

 

Site promoting French TV’s OCS Max channel and a new show ‘Magic City’, set in 1950s Miami. This site is really pushing the boundaries of what is possible right now using CSS/Javascript – it truly is a rich experience. Dotted with animations from entering/exiting the elevator to parallax movement linked to your mouse position, videos, sound it is hard to believe it is not Flash. Essentially you move from floor to floor via an elevator, to explore the scenes and look at the characters. Looks good, loads of animation and a rich experience.

Nice site illustrating the index price of Christmas presents – all related to the ’12 days of Christmas’ – nice idea and really nicely executed. One of the best examples of a non-Flash site i’ve seen – in terms of sound integration, Google street view, music, transitions, flips. It looks great too, really nice layout and design, and lovely transitions all tie up to be a great site.

Museum Studio

By | @museumstudio | No Comments

Portfolio site of Museum Studio Swedish Art-direction and creative studio. Really nice thumbnail based layout, rolling over the projects shuffles through the thumbnails, clicking shoots them all out in a line and enlarges them and places a grey overlay on the rest of the background. Love the animation and transitions, really nicely crafted and clean minimal design.

Silk

By | WEBSITES | No Comments

Silk is a simple site that allows you to create symmetrical swirling patterns – and share them! Very minimal and interesting to play with – the lines it creates are very smooth and there are a lot of nice touches that liven it up a little.
