FOX.com
Launch Site
For Fi's redesign of FOX.com I created the home EP as well as the two video players that are used to play back the TV channel's official online content, which includes major shows like 'The Simpsons' or 'Family Guy'.
Agency: Fi
Year: 2010
Role: Flash Development
Team: Fi, FOX/FDM & Brightcove
Home EP
The Editorial Pod is the first major element the user sees when opening the Homepage. It is used to present the featured, most recent content so it is an element of high importance. For FOX I created this module in Flash and supplied the backend team with an XML schema that allowed the EP to be plugged in into an existing CMS.
Video Player
FOX.com is the home of a vast amount of amazing shows, ranging from The Simpsons over House to Glee, with millions of fans worldwide. I created two video players, that will be used to play back the original content in the primary destination for FOX shows. One player plays back full episodes and the other, more lightweight player is used to display 'clip' content. Both players are built on top of Brightcove and offer functionality like closed captioning, advertisement playback and even a way to darken the site in the background, when you're watching videos outside of fullscreen mode.
