Parallax Launch 'Buses: the Weird and the Wonderful' Infographic
We are proud to announce the launch of our latest interactive infographic Buses: The Weird and Wonderful. It is a responsive one page scroller with lots of colour and some wacky animations.
We love being able to make engaging, interactive content for our clients and have really enjoyed creating this new infographic for Arriva Bus and Coach. It features an interesting account of quirky bus facts accompanied by fun and beautifully designed animations.
From pirate to phantom buses, there are lots of little known bus fact to be discovered. It was a somewhat challenging CSS project and our developer Rob Matwiejski, who worked on the project said that he thoroughly enjoyed the experience:
The most rewarding part of the build was learning to manipulate some relatively complex SVG’s. I figured out pretty quickly that too many nested groups & paths can cause problems when targeting individual parts of the illustration, so I tried to keep the files as flat as possible to make CSS animations easier. Animating the swallowing bus was also really enjoyable. It required some careful layering and precise timings to achieve the right effect, but i think it was worth the effort. The googly eyes were just the icing on the cake.
If you want to drop us a message or head over and give it a vote, it has also recently been published on awwwards. We’d love to see what you think.
