UNVEIL IS AN INNOVATIVE WAY TO EXPLAIN COMPLEX PROCESSES
Complex processes are inherently hard to visualise, so we have developed UNVEIL, a rich-picture-animation hybrid. On the demo above you simply scroll over the areas that interest you, and they automatically animate, and more information pops up. Within these pop-ups, you can have text, images, videos, and links.
WHY CHOOSE UNVEIL?
Learning from our rich picture and animation experience, we have developed a product that is the best of both worlds. Providing the immediacy of a rich picture with the excitement of an animation. UNVEIL is a rich-picture-animation hybrid.
CUTTING-EDGE VISUAL PROCESS
UNVEIL is born from a decade’s experience of providing both rich pictures and animations. The UNVEIL process is very similar, with the addition of two further steps.
Step 1. Rich picture
We start off by creating a rich picture for your complex process or organisational transformation
Step 2. Animate
We then animate all the subtle movements that will bring the rich picture to life
Step 3. UNVEIL
Through the use of various software, we fuse the rich-picture-animation hybrid together
Step 4. Host
As an online tool, UNVEIL needs to be hosted online (like any webpage). Once complete, we can either host it for you on our website, create a specific micro-site or work with your existing website developers to embed it in your own website
ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF UNVEIL, LOOKING AT INDUSTRY SECTORS
In the example above we look at various industry sectors. This version also includes the orange circles with the crosses that point out where the user can find more information. The clean and crisp illustration style is different from the one at the top of the page on purpose, so you can see the potential of how UNVEIL could be delivered for your brand.
GROUND-BREAKING APPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY
Although much of the technology behind this has been around for a few years, we believe that we’re the first to offer this in this format, focusing on rich pictures. We’re also able to offer a bespoke microsite built around this service, just in case it’s not feasible to run on your existing website for any reason.
Tomorrow’s Technology, Today.
You get the immediacy of a rich picture with the engagement of an animation
The user scrolls over to pick what’s relevant to them, and as they’re actively involved they feel more invested
On the rollover, we show a satisfying subtle animation and a pop-up box with further text, images, videos, and links
Ideal for desktops and tablets, but we’ve also considered mobile and created a simpler version that comes up automatically for mobile too
WHAT TYPE OF LEARNING DO YOU PREFER?
To educate your target audience it is statistically best to use visuals, as that’s how the largest percentage of people learn. As many a school teacher will tell you, we learn in one of four ways… visual, aural, reading/writing, or kinesthetic. UNVEIL makes the most of this by combining visual, reading/writing, and a little bit of kinesthetic (you have to mouseover).
Statistics from above are taken from the VARK (Visual/Audio/Reading/Kinesthetic) website
