Directing the AJAX Action in Interaction Design

Learn the new design and implementation principles underlying a Cinematic User Experience (CUE)

Animation is becoming central to modern UI design, and essential to the creation of compelling and effective user experiences. New challenges -as well as new freedoms - abound for both the designer and developer when creating these experiences that aim to entertain, educate, and ultimately, guide users through complex site navigations in a fluid and elegant manner. In this session, attendees will learn the new design and implementation principles underlying a Cinematic User Experience (CUE). Bret Simister, Laszlo Fellow and Co-founder, will also provide specific examples of how to deliver a truly compelling, engaging experience by applying the dynamic animation capabilities already embedded in Laszlo's technology.

Speaker Bio: As chief interface architect of Laszlo Systems, Bret Simister leads the design of Laszlo's advanced user interface framework. He has extensive experience in designing and implementing groundbreaking user interfaces for personal computers and interactive television. Prior to Laszlo, Bret was the interface architect for Excite@Home's interactive TV service. Before that, he was a UI designer and project manager for Tele-TV, an interactive TV company, and a software engineer for Apple Computer working on a variety of projects, including video conferencing systems and corporate front-end systems. Bret holds a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics, and a B.S. in Physics from the University of California, Davis.
