TravelNT – Red Centre Microsite
One of the major websites promoting Australian tourism, TravelNT, created a micro-site to advertise the merits of Alice Springs and its surrounding area in central Australia. I developed the main flash element appearing in those pages:
This item requires the latest version of Adobe’s Flash Player.Please download it from www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer and refresh this page once installation is complete.
I used Actionscript 3 to script the animation sequences and implement the interactivity. Many of the contents are loaded from external files, an XML file for the menu and text, FLV files for the videos and SWF files for slideshows. I was given the initial concept of the blurring transitions but felt that I had to experiment with the speeds and prioritizing the movements to achieve a smooth transition between the sub-pages.
Overall it was a small, useful app I enjoyed working on.
