We have witnessed a ferocious battle between three incredible sites all in the running to become Site of the Month. The contenders were: “WWF- 40 ans d’engagement”, “Is this the Future of the Airline Website?”, and “Just a Reflektor”. It’s with great anticipation that we can announce that the latter has been crowned victor after scraping its way to the title with a margin of just two votes. Congratulations!!!
Joint development by AATOAA, Google Creative Lab, and UNIT9, “Just a Reflektor” is an interactive short film that explores the themes in Arcade Fire’s “Reflektor” through two devices simultaneously: the computer and smartphone/tablet. Filmed in Haiti, the story follows a young woman who travels between her world and our own. Explore the interactive video elements from “Just a Reflektor” here on the technology page.
To experience the film, visit justareflektor.com in Google Chrome on your computer, and g.co/af on your Android or iOS device. Your computer will connect with your mobile device and reflect your actions onto the world of the film using camera vision and other tecnology: WebGL, Three.js, WebSockets, WebAudio, getUserMedia, Device Orientation, Google App Engine, Google Compute Engine, Google Cloud Storage.
