Google Earth & Google Ocean: The underwater world is now being mapped to the delight of divers everywehre!
I am soooo excited about this. For years I have been waiting to see if the underwater world would become apart of the Google entourage.
Now the internet company plans to take on one of the last bastions of the unknown: the depths of the ocean.

UX Functional Skills Matrix
As many people know one of my pet peeves is nomenclature and titling in the world of design. If we could establish a skills matrix and positions that where universal it would provide a clearer path for career development and allow us to communicate with a similar language.

Adobe Thermo

There have been many past attempts at allowing designers who generally feared entering the foreign matrix of action script and DHTML. Fireworks had us excited with work flows that could be reused in flash, newer [...]

Battle of the Bands
After pitching, hiring and establishing a mograph team at Riptown it was time for the Art Director & Motion team to take a big bite by creating a title sequence for “Bodog Battle of the Bands.” The Art & Design team did an amazing job with the visual treatment and pacing. The project was a [...]
Riptown Redesgin: Bring your Passion to work
Miles spent the weekend working on a Riptown SLAM project. SLAM Projects also known as Deep Dives (made famous by IDEO) are projects in which you are given extremely aggressive time lines to accomplish huge amounts of design work. They are usually 2 -3 days in length.
Using this as our inspiration we decided to have [...]
