Top that with a mobile experience, and you’re left with the most comprehensive and definitive Oscars site ever.

Minivegas : CNN Ecosphere

Working with Stinkdigital and HEIMAT Berlin, Minivegas created a powerful social commentary platform for CNN and the COP17 climate change conference in Durban. Any time someone tweets with the hashtag #COP17, the Ecosphere will add it to a tree representing that specific topic or discussion, making the most popular topics the biggest trees. After a few weeks of collecting tweets, the piece will be shown in Durban as an installation that renders the site as a 3D holographic image.

The entire site is built in WebGL/HTML and harnesses Minivegas’ incredibly powerful and flexible Atlantis platform.

Welikesmall : Smokey Bones

Getting a chance to redesign their very own Webby award winning site for Smokey Bones was a task near and dear to WLS’ heart. The old site had all of the bells and whistles from the time period it was made in – full of Flash, easter eggs, VFX/motion and green screened videos – it set a new standard for restaurant websites.

The times have certainly changed, so for the new version of the site, WLS was still able to celebrate Smokey Bones’ signature style and humor, but this time under a lean and mean HTML5 and mobile optimized build. With its easy navigation, great content and a platform agnostic experience, WLS once again sets the bar for how restaurant websites should function.

Technologies used:

  • HTML/CSS (HTML5)
  • JavaScript
  • Full CMS driven for both website and mobile
  • Animated GIFs (Cinemagraphs)
  • Geolocating
  • Platform agnostic
