ROLE: Flash Programming and Animation, Web Site Redesign .


The Web farm is an Interactive Flash file that explains the differences between modem and DSL connections with sight gags and humor.

 

Click to view the WEB FARM (requires Flash 4.0)

 

 

Overview:
Flash turned out to be the perfect medium to demonstrate the difference between a fast and slow Internet connection. The presentation allows users to select the farm animal of their choice, representing differing sizes of files. Each animal can then be painfully directed into the modem "hose", or the slightly more comfortable DSL "pipe", complete with sound effects. The Flash file redirects users to HTML files that appear in place of the Flash object after a transition effect.

Project Highlights:
The original animation by Phil Rogan was such a hit that the company used the "Web Farm" cast of characters in it's print, radio, and television.
