We’ve made our video player and photo viewer bigger, almost 4 times bigger. The theme resembles the themes used in our photoblogs, a design decision to retain familiarity around the website. We’ve mentioned before that we wanted to slowly step away from flash and adopt HTML5, and we’ve done just that. All our videos will have display HTML5 video player if your browser supports it, and will fallback to flash if necessary. iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad users will notice that you can now view our site in its entirety.

This new system will allow us to showcase all our creative material from the past, present and future. We’ve recently expanded the Axle Studios family by introducing our new photography and web design departments.


Less Flash Dependence

In the previous years since we’ve started, our site was primarily powered by Flash. It’s a great platform for portfolios and delivering stunning visual effects on the web. However its major drawbacks is its usability and maintainability. Now with the increasing popularity of the upcoming HTML 5 and the advancements of Javascript, flash’s days seem to be numbered, and that is why we’re making the switch.


For the past year, we’ve been using WordPress to power our photo blogs for our photography team and have been impressed by its incredible ease of use. Hence we have decided to make a transition to employ this new terrifically solid platform.

In the coming weeks our goal is to create a new user experience in the Axle Studios domain, and we hope that you will enjoy it.
