Nukeation is known for its web design, graphic design, and user experience services, but what few people know is that our roots are in animation, 3D graphics, and traditional art work. (Before it's introduction into the world of UX, back in the mid-90s we were known as Atomic Diaper Productions... don't ask why)
To familiarize you with that side of Nukeation, let me tell you about an internal project we've been running for a short while. Project "NE" started as a solution to a very boring afternoon and quickly turned into a full scale project to create a digital spokesperson for Nukeation.

These test renders show a work-in-progress version of "NE" or Annie. We're using some of our advanced XAML components, Silverlight 2.0, 3D animation, and (thanks to some friends in Hollywood) professional voice over to give life to Annie. While such a project is more than common in the 3D CGI industry, we hope to give Annie a functional role in the world of UX that will make her very unique.
Annie will be the "face" of Fingertip as well as play a functional role in it.
