EA Games - The Next Generation
A web-based portal for Electronic Arts (EA) Games, sponsored by Lightmaker: www.lightmaker.com. The site itself promotes the Next Generation games in development at EA, simultaneously aiding the endorsement of the new consoles; Sony Playsation 3, Nintendo Revolution and Microsoft XBOX 360. Aimed at a European wide audience, the site is translated into several languages. The user interface employs ColdFusion, embedded Flash and integrated video. Eventually the project will utilise a Microsoft SQL Server back-end in order to deliver a content manageable site to the client.
The commercial nature of the project has allowed me to continue my growth as a designer and developer in the live environment, demonstrating that Brunel's Multimedia course breeds a new type of graduate; one that international organisations are willing to invest in. The site is currently in mid-development stages and aims to be launched alongside the Next Generation consoles later this year.
