Specialist Digital Design Service

Exciting HTML5 Rich Media Content Created to be Truly Responsive and Display on any Device

Our mission statement is simple - providing the new order of websites, which are more animated, a bit closer to TV than a magazine, whilst still offering traditional website functionality and working on devices like phones in exactly the same way as a desktop browser version. This kind of experience was only achievable using a plugin like Adobe Flash. With the advent of mobile internet, this technology has become defunct and Rich media has become accessible directly through a users phone browser. Where websites were once really glorified encylcopidas of information or at best a kind of interactive magazine, they can now be a lot more like a TV advert or short programme, with additional interactive information pulled in if the website owner wants to push that information or the user requests it. In a nutshell - the best of both worlds.

One Page Websites

One page websites (or single page websites) are generally more fun and funky, rather than being concerned with functionality or regimenting information. Traditional websites might be great if you are running a online shop, but for giving the customer a bite sized engaging experience with animation, video and advertising style text - the one page website is king. Of course being based in the same language as traditional sites, theres is no reason why they cannot be strapped to the front of a more complex site as well, giving you the best of both worlds. In short, they are the start of a whole new web experience.
Perfect for mobile
Each site looks totally unique as there is no publishing platform
Rich in images, animation, video and designed type
You decide the flow, not the user
Each website is a journey

HTML5 Banners

Fully animated web banners that work on any platform, dynamic and lightweight. Using a range of technologies for servers like FlashTalking, Sizmek and DoubleClick.

Web Animation

Animation styles including traditional cell frame 2D, vector animation and motion graphics. Practically anything can be made to work in the framework of HTML5, accessible to phones and tablets as well as traditional web browsers. Animation can incorporate not just traditional graphics and images but be made interactive.

HTML5 Video

Web video is everywhere, in large scale and high definition. Where it once required either plugins or specialist knowledge to integrate, now all it needs is a relatively new browser from a phone or tablet. It can be interactive and is easily adapted to make it prompt other things on the screen around it.
Custom graphical controls
Interactivity, buttons, overlays
Titling, prompting, text effects
Graphical Integration - completely custom interface

Gifs

Gifs (including Cinemagraphs and Infographics) are hugely popular because they are so universal and work on anything. They allow for very quick, simple animations or video without the hassle of complicated coding or builds, and quickly and easily convey a mood or idea.
Universal, work on anything
Rapid development
Hugely popular
Technically very simple
