Right sexy website from Sony Picture Imageworks. Give it a view if you want to see an example of a job immaculately done.
A few aspects to note:
- The transitions between primary states of the experience. I haven’t seen transitions like this before. Unique stuff to be riffed upon.
- The sequences of text animations. Notice the smooth timing of the characters progressively fading into view, across all the text elements.
- The work. Imageworks does some damn fine sport.
One more note on text animation: I’m asking the Flex SDK team to bake methods for character sequencing into the Flex 4 text components. However, considering the sheer amount of components the SDK team must build for the new Flex 4 architecture, it’s unlikely character sequencing will actually make it in. This seems like the perfect thing for someone in the community to build into a custom text component (hint, hint).
