hellodave!

Site of Scandinavian agency hellodave! Set in a slick dark interface with 3d panels flying around moving with your cursor. By clicking on the thumbnails all of the panels reorganise to show a video player for that project. Really nice animations and transitions – love the camera movement with your mouse – it is very very smooth, and the shading and lighting is well executed. Very nice…

Clean, slick, and simple website of Brazilian Creative Director Taua Baccarin. Showcasing his best work in a nicely laid out grid, highlighted by the smooth animation that really brings it all to life. The work is presented nicely in a sideways scrolling contact sheet style. Great combination of nice layout and great animation - good example of portfolio site.

Le-Joy

⊆ June 17th, 2010 by Dan | ˜ No Comments »

Very cool site of photographer & art director Jaoa Sousa. Set within a grid of labelled projects, the preloading itself is very cool, is a sea of work Le-Joy has created. Rolling over each thumbnail instantly displays that project and changes the thumbnail to navigation buttons, keeping your mouse still for a few seconds hides all the navigation and grid. When each image appears it is mapped to a 3d surface and animates nicely into view. A superb, stylish portfolio of really nice work, different but familiar, really cool…

Shihad – Sleepeater

⊆ May 18th, 2010 by Dan | ˜ No Comments »

Really cool interactive music video from Shihad with their latest single. 100 Shihad fans were invited to take part in a music video, and were filmed in slow motion whilst being ‘tortured’. The results are a wall of individual videos which you can watch and interact with. Beautifully shot and fun to watch, very stylish with black and white. I love the way the video flips from silhoutte to detail, white and then reverse, you find yourself watching it again and again!

Forum

⊆ April 29th, 2010 by Dan | ˜ No Comments »

Website promoting ‘Forum’ a Brazilian fashion label. Cool interface, very nicely laid out with typography, 3d objects, video and photography. Coupled with slick and smooth animation and loads of nice touches, in particular I like the mechanism used to show off their products a very cool interactive slideshow. Also really like the intro withe the 3d wireframes overlaid with video – Very nice…

KIRSTEN BECKEN

Portfolio of Kirsten Becken, fashion photographer and graphic designer. Pretty interesting interface – providing a mood board of several shots/images for each project which pans around by mouse movement, clicking zooms in and double clicking allows you to click and drag your viewpoint. I like the movement, the overview of images, and the fresh take on the standard portfolio. Pretty cool.

Site of photographer Brandon Savoy. Simple and minimal this site shows full screen photography with a very clean interface which works nicely. The animation is very fluid and allows you to watch a slideshow of his work. Does the job well, simple, clean and good looking.

Grimm Gallun Holtappels

⊆ April 6th, 2010 by Dan | ˜ No Comments »

Website of Grimm Gallun Holtappels, German agency. Combining real environment and 3d interactive objects this site really comes alive. Travelling through what looks like an office, thumbnails of their projects can be dragged along through the space and expanded to find out more. By clicking on the coloured boxes you can explore lots of different areas, the zoom function is really cool as well. I love the motion tracking of the 3d objects and the faux camera / POV movement. The animation is super smooth, with an amazing level of detail and timing. It looks great also, with every button and feature well considered and designed. Love it!

Nice camera movement and cool transitions and animation.
