Lunchometer Is Alive

Lunchometer is a project I was working on during my short but sweet time at Thought Den.
To quote from the Thought Den blog:

Everybody likes lunch, but it’s a minefield out there. What’s needed is an easy method, preferably built in flash and colourised in earthy tones, for rating and sharing your favourite lunch spots.

As the initial concept and technical stuff was already there, it was my job to design the visuals for the application and website and give it some character. I am really proud of it and I hope anyone stumbling across this blog will enjoy it too. Check it out!

This is what it does, cool right!

Lunchometer Animated Header

It was really fun animating the different "idle" animations for luncho. I also got a chance to brush up on some actionscripting for the randomised food and stringing together luncho's actions.

The background is loosely based on nice/eaty places in Bristol

So here is what I've made so far for the lunchometer project.

Lunchometer Sketches

This is the start of my 2nd week (of 5) with Thought Den. Thought Den do fun web and mobile and interactive installation stuff. Here is their blog post about me (and other things too of course). Currently, I am doing lots of researching and designing the visuals for a web app going by the name of lunchometer.
