We’re proud to announce PushPopDesign’s recent completion of the Museum of Science Demo for Sencha Animator—a wonderful new application that gives designers and developers the ability to easily create stunning web content with animations, transformations and more in Javascript/HTML/CSS, via a unique WYSIWYG style interface. Best of all, not being based in Flash, means it’s iOS compatible.
For this project, PDD handled everything from concept, to art direction, copy, design, and development. One of the fun challenges on the project included taking the background image—a voronoi distribution that we programmed in Processing (www.processing.org)—importing it into ZBrush and photoshop, where we tweaked it further, then finally importing it back into the Sencha Animator project, where we layered it, and animated the opacity, to give it a pulsing effect. We also enjoyed conceptualizing and creating the copy for a series of fictitious museum exhibits, that include such title as, “Quantum Discovery: Virtual Particles, Entanglement, and Beyond” and “What’s in Your Soil? Meet the Water Bear.”
Here’s a link to the demos (ours is the cool one with the asteroids in the top-right, and also appears a few more times on this page):
