a flying sprite animation on the homepage that renders in any browser with Javascript enabled; uses media queries to adjust it's range of motion depending on the screen size.
an image/video gallery which also resizes dynamically to fit any screen size.
each gallery image evokes a drop-down modal (like this one!), useful for additional info via embedded text or video.
all embedded video plays in .mp4 or HTML5 format with Flash "fall-forward" to ensure universal compatability regardless of end-user's device.
deployed on Amazon EC2, S3, Route53, and CloudFront for solid performance and scalability all over the globe.
