Webstufffff
Heres a pretty interesting use of trans-media design used by a rock
band named Hail The Villain. Instead of just the typical means of advertisement through the means of myspace and
twitter pages the band has created an interactive website in which they have
there very own alternative universe, as well as animated videos and a comic book
whist there music is played in the background.
The site has a detective like feel as you search for clues to put the story together, on the
page there is also touring information and links to external pages

Brief applied to a design context
Supra Footwear Brief
Introduction/Background
In the US, the boom of signature basketball shoes in the late 1980’s provided the sheer variety necessary for a collecting culture, while the Hip-Hop movement gave the sneakers their street value as status symbols. These sneaker collector’s are also know as Sneakerheads are people who own multiple pairs of shoes as a form of collection and fashion, this culture is fueled by an obsession with limited edition releases and rare retro shoes.
Another catalyst to the cult following of this culture would be the increase popularity of skateboarding in the 90’s to the present, creating a demand for new styles and extra durable footwear.
Supra Footwear (meaning “above and beyond” in Latin) was launched in 2005 by Angel Cabada an avid skateboarder from California; under the umbrella company One Distribution.
Assignment Brief
You have been commissioned to develop an media rich online gallery for the company Supra Footwear. The main function of this gallery is an interactive web experience that will create brand/product awareness. The designed interface must align with the Supra Footwear brand presence and be easy to navigate thought whilst being visually engaging.
Specifics
Target Audience
Supra shoes are collected and purchased from a vast majority of people, However our preferred audience are males aged between 16-38 years old, who embrace the skate and sneaker culture.
Style/Tone
The aesthetic style of this project must reflect the hip-hop and skate sub cultures while retaining the professionalism of the Supra Footwear brand.
Papervision3d Tests
I have recently look at what is necessary to create a scene in papervison3d, this includes a scene, a camera, a viewport, 3D objects, Materials, and a Render Engine. These and the left hand cartesian coordinate system has helped me understand how
3d objects can be used in a 2D environment like flash, but still create the illusion of 3D. After understanding how vertices and triangles form 3d shapes, i started to create my first primitives that rotate in papervision3d, these are the basic building blocks of 3d objects in PV3D and may seem very basic to other 3d programs but this is just the beginning of my development with PV3D.

Beginning Of Papervision Research...
Today i started my research into Papervision3D 2.1 revision 920. This started with the initial setup and download of the Papervision class in which there are several ways to do, this will alter occurding to which software you are using Flash cs3, cs4, Flex Builder or Flash builder. I have chosen to use Flash Cs3 as this is what is in out labs and i do not want to come across any compatibility issues. After some research into the difference between compiled and non-compiled source code i have chosen to download the non compiled zip source code because unlike the swc it is compatible with Flash Cs3. After downloading the necessary files from google code i configured the authoring tool in Flash for papervision to run.
I also have done some research into trapcode particular and i have created a sample Mov of a preloading icon that will run during load time
