CreativeJS: Visual Fun in JavaScript (Seb Lee-Delisle)

As browsers evolve, the range of visual effects and interactions available is now incredibly sophisticated. Seb will take you through the easiest ways to create animations and particle effects, and demonstrate some of the best projects to emerge from the new creative JavaScripters.

The Making of the 'Noise Trade' Music Video (Persistent Peril)

Ginny Jones (garth+ginny) and Sam Bourner from Persistent Peril will chat through their music video ‘Noise Trade’ for noisenik band ‘Three Trapped Tigers’ (pictured). She will show how the video was developed from conception to completion using Cinema 4D, Flash and After Effects.

Following on from this we will be screening a selection of your favourite music videos. Please email your suggestions to managers@dotbrighton.org.  They should demonstrate creativity rather than simply reflecting the music you like. 

Beer will be provided courtesy of creativejs.com.  We'll also have lots of prizes to give away, including your chance to win a copy of Adobe Creative Suite 5.5* worth over £1,800!

Biographies

Seb Lee-Delisle is an internationally known creative coder specialising in large scale installations. Whether it's digital interactive fireworks displays or glow-stick voting systems, his work uses technology to bring people together in fun and exciting ways. He also programs creative visual effects for websites, games and apps in many programming languages and platforms.

He loves sharing the creativity of code with artists and programmers alike using physics, motion detection, 3D and particle systems. His work has pushed the boundaries of what is possible both on and off the web, and won two BAFTAs with Plug-in Media, the agency he co-founded in 2004.

A highly sought-after speaker, his recent Creative JavaScript / HTML5 workshop series sold out within hours. He co-hosts the Creative Coding Podcast with Iain Lobb.
