Campaign microsite for Sony Ericsson C905 – code name Shiho. This site features Cairngorm MVC framework and a flexible localization mechanism. Every text in the site is configurable via XML. The embedded fonts with specific character sets are selectively loaded for different languages. (For e.g: basic Latin for English, French; Cyrillic for Bulgarian, Russian…) Non-embedded languages like Chinese are also possible. Animations which demonstrate the phone features are made with Flash IDE and loaded into the Flex-based application progressively to optimize bandwidth.
My role: Team leader (during localization phase), Flash developer
Tech notes:
- Flex 3 / Actionscript 3
- Cairngorm MVC micro-architecture framework
- Loaded CSS (dynamic font & styles)
- Flex’ custom effect
