36ers 2009/10 Season Teaser

As a learning project for two Dutch trainees I have working for me for five months, we've put together something of a 2009/10 Season Teaser for the 36ers site. Quick run through of the team, a few of the things to look out for this season, show newcomers what a full house looks like at the Dome (the photo is from Maher's last game), and then intro some seating options. This was the Dutchies' first time using Flash's ActionScript and that came with help from Joel (another web developer who works for me).

Thought it could be something that people can forward to friends, family and colleagues to help spread the word.

36ers 2009/10 Season Teaser

See what you think and go easy on these guys - trying to make basketball fans of them by the time they depart in January! ;)

Yeah it looks good!

The only thing I can fault is the last part of it which shows the seating arrangement (Gold Seats etc) are hard to see the font and the colour that comes up

Looks good
You may want to add a bigger delay for each player.
As it flashes through pretty fast.
Hard to read there names if you don't know the team already.

Isaac, that music playing is great... you should definately put that forward as a track to play during introductions or timeouts etc.

MadeIn - the music was provided to us by the club and I think it will be something they will be using here and there this season.

I design websites for a living and have to say what you have done looks awesome. Agree with slowing the transition between player slides slightly. Job well done

The Musis is a song called 300 Violin Orchestra. Expect to hear it pre game.

A great job. Sent shivers down my spine and built up my expectations for the first home game.

dougys, I thought we could have another similar Flash piece down the track that lists the team and maybe shows roster depth, or positions on a court. Bit like how AFL previews show headshots on an AFL field. Might be useful for newbies.

Did the Dutchies keep insisting on putting up pics of windmill dunks? Maybe on "the left hand side" of the page?

Grea to hear skip... the part with the STOMP/CLAP would sound great if the crowd joined in.

I miss the days when people would stomp their feet on the wooden floors of the stands... sounded amazing.

Yeah, good work guys. My only criticism is the speed that the players are flashed up.

Good music theme too, though for some reason I keep waiting for KG to scream 'RAAAAH' at the end! Do you think we could get Mahersy out of retirement to scream like that before every game? ;-P

The club should seriously look at this as a basis for TV advertising - perhaps add in a few seconds of live action and it would be more effective than any marketing campaign ever seen on TV.

Hey is there any chance of getting this instrumental? I've got few ideas for a track! In fact the song I've been writing for the 36ers goes perfectly to it! If you can help me out let me know, cheers ;-)

That radio advertisement on the bottom of the index page is the best they have done yet. :)

Anon, I didn't think it was particularly unique (e.g., could've been advertising any movie or event), but it's definitely more polished than what's gone in the past.

One of the new major sponsors is Kojo, so hopefully they can help lift some of the promotional efforts we might see on radio and TV?

FYI: Dutchie Roy has updated the player slide speed so it's a fraction slower.

Nice job on the teaser thing! The site is shaping up nicely.

As an aside, are all the other club websites going to have the uniform NBL bar up the top?

Not sure if its been mentioned or not, but the music used would be fantastic in a TV commercial for the sixers or the NBL

ROFL.
My daughter and I are immortalised forever(well as long as this web page stays up)walking up the stairs!!!!!Of all the 8000 people....LOL.
She came dressed up for the comp/promotion for the last game,Rock&Roll theme.But it went all lamo.So it looked out of place.Not only does she play Div1 ,she attends a dancing troupe as well.I wonder how many B/Ball chicks can cartwheel and do the splits?
Me?I was off for a Beer and an icecream,haha.
Good job Joel/Dutchie/Isaac btw.

Great job as always!!

I know I mentioned it once before Isaac, but I still think that for the sixers site (and hoops?) a slider with the number of members would be good for brag points against other clubs.

I sent an email to Ben F with the suggestion also, but didn't get a response - busy I know!

They have a SP page (linked from the header of other club sites) but must be persisting with their rogue site.

Seeing as we are talking about the website in general now too - one of the disconcerting things is that when you click on one of other clubs across the top it doesnt actually change to their url - just changes the id after index.php ie the Melbourne Tigers site url becomes http://www.adelaide36ers.com/index.php?id=7

There is no functional issue with that, just a bit weird that is all.

We have no control over that but I completely agree that it is bizarre and should not happen. Gives the impression that the club is responsible for that other content.

I realise you have no control, but figured you were helping out with some of the content that you might have some contacts - otherwise I might just contact the nbl direct and mention it, just figured if it was coming from the club or clubs contact that it would hold a bit more weight

Multiple fans complaining would carry more weight. We still don't have a properly schedule and results page (that Sportal provided fine last year) weeks after launch and I've sent through multiple reminders.

Great job Dutchies, look forward to some more impressive efforts. BUT naming them Rookie of the Year already, the season is yet to begin!
