Finally, I can write about this. I am going to keep this relatively short today, but I will try to write more in-depth about this project later on. I had the fortune to be the lead on Current TV’s Viewpoints project on design and development. The design and interactive features are pretty simple, but we wanted to make the experience to be have rich motion and subtle stylistic informational cues. The application was built in Actionscript 3 and a lot of the motion design just could not have been done without AS3’s improved performance. There are a lot of pieces that are still to come in for this project, but my hope is people enjoy playing around on Viewpoints and end up leaving webcam opinions of their own. If you do in fact like the design, concept, content or a combination of them all, I would really appreciate you putting out the word to your friends/colleagues about this project – Viewpoints will not work without extensive participation. One easy way to do this would be to add it to your delicious bookmarks.
On a side note, I am in one of the topics, but you will have to look hard. :)
More to come.
