A new campaign has been finally launched to celebrate what would have been Freddie Mercury’s 60th birthday on September 5th. The objective is to collect funds to help The Mercury Phoenix Trust fight AIDS worldwide by asking people to sponsor a star.
3D wise, although it was initially prototyped with Papervision, due to the simplicity of the calculations no 3D class was finally used.
The space view consists of 900 pixel stars rendered with setPixel, 30 MovieClip user stars, plus a Stage sized BitmapData backdrop slightly distorted with a TransformationMatrix.
This was the last piece I developed at Outside Line. Carefully finished by Lorenzo Verzini.
