I feel slightly dirty, having not only done some work for an oil company recently, but also just having made a banner. I usually tell clients that banners are against my religion, but made an exception in this case because it involved doing some challenging code-driven animation. Check it out on Bannerblog.
Yeah nice work on the banner. Ok so you’ve sold your soul to the devil but hey ho gotta make a living
Seriously though really cool banner. Would love to know the process you went through with this…

Good stuff, and not a hint of exhaust fumes.
Well, the line dynamics itself is just hooke’s law stuff - basic physics. Took some experimentation to get a smooth curve drawn through a series of points (basicaly, the control points of your previous and next points need to be in line).
The cars follow one of the line’s points with differing elasticity and damping, but the real pain in the backside was drawing the dashed line.
Luckily there were some tutorials about this and I found by moving the first drawing point up-screen it creates the animated effect - job done!
Hi Liam, You might be glad to hear that this humble banner was chosen as NMA’s “Campaign of the Month”: NMA article! Scott
