			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Be sure to check out this years Flashforward Film Festival Finalists. There were 60 finalists in 15 categories. You can view all of the finalists at <a href="http://www.flashforwardconference.com/finalists" target="blank">http://www.flashforwardconference.com/finalists</a>. </p>
<p>The following sites were selected as the best of their category:</p>
<p><span id="more-25"></span></p>
<p><strong>Art: 15&#215;15</strong><br />
Want your fifteen minutes of fame? This is the easy way to get it.<br />
<a href="http://www.15x15.org/" target="blank">http://www.15&#215;15.org/</a></p>
<p><strong>Cartoon: The YuYu</strong><br />
Excellent art and animation created solely in Flash, but not much of a story.<br />
<a href="http://www.biteycastle.com/theYuyu.html" target="blank">http://www.biteycastle.com/theYuyu.html</a></p>
<p><strong>Commerce: Reisenthel Accessories</strong><br />
This is a great way to browse and purchase products. I am sure we will be seeing lots of sites mimicking this design in the near future.<br />
<a href="http://www.reisenthel.com/" target="blank">http://www.reisenthel.com/</a></p>
<p><strong>Experience: Design Your Own Radio</strong><br />
Laimo. My feeling toward this site might be different if I was a 14 year old girl.<br />
<a href="http://demo.fb.se/e/sr/design/" target="blank">http://demo.fb.se/e/sr/design/</a></p>
<p><strong>Game: Death in Sakkara</strong><br />
I couldn&#8217;t even make it through the first chapter. Either the game needs more usability research, or I am retarded.<br />
<a href="http://www.deathinsakkara.com/" target="blank">http://www.deathinsakkara.com/</a></p>
<p><strong>Instructional: GeeGuides</strong><br />
This seems like a great way to teach kids about art. You will most likely find the voice-overs to be quite annoying if you over the age of 12.<br />
<a href="http://www.geeguides.com/demo/" target="blank">http://www.geeguides.com/demo/</a></p>
<p><strong>Motion Graphics: M5</strong><br />
Features some great 2D animations used for their transitions between sections.<br />
<a href="http://www.them5.com/" target="blank">http://www.them5.com/</a></p>
<p><strong>Narrative: The Ball of Bastards</strong><br />
This is hilarious! It has a Monty Python feel to it.<br />
<a href="http://www.ballofbastards.com/" target="blank">http://www.ballofbastards.com/</a></p>
<p><strong>Navigation: Big Ideas come out of Big Pencils</strong><br />
Great design featuring a very cool 3D rotating zoom effect.<br />
<a href="http://www.leoburnett.ca/" target="blank">http://www.leoburnett.ca/</a></p>
<p><strong>Online Application: Orange Phone Wizard</strong><br />
This site never loaded for me. Maybe it is getting way to much traffic right now.<br />
<a href="http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/phonetrainer" target="blank">http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/phonetrainer</a></p>
<p><strong>Original Sound: Samorost2</strong><br />
Very nice looking game. The third stage would not load for me, so I can&#8217;t tell you what the point of it is.<br />
<a href="http://www.samorost.net/samorost2/" target="blank">http://www.samorost.net/samorost2/</a></p>
<p><strong>Technical Merit: Flash Commodore 64 Emulator</strong><br />
I don&#8217;t think I was even born when these games were around.<br />
<a href="http://codeazur.com.br/stuff/fc64_final/" target="blank">http://codeazur.com.br/stuff/fc64_final/</a></p>
<p><strong>3D: CuberXtreme</strong><br />
Highly addictive. I have to admit that I had to cheat on the first training level. See if you can figure it out on your own.<br />
<a href="http://www.digisonline.com/cuberxtreme/" target="blank">http://www.digisonline.com/cuberxtreme/</a></p>
<p><strong>Typography: iriver &#8211; Heart to Heart</strong><br />
Boring, although I can see why it won the typography award.<br />
<a href="http://postvisual.com/awards/2006/awards/iriver/" target="blank">http://postvisual.com/awards/2006/awards/iriver/</a></p>
<p><strong>Video: Nike Women Rockstar Workout â€” Hip Hop</strong><br />
This site features great use of flash video to teach hip hop dance moves. I can&#8217;t wait to hit the clubs with some of these! Just Kidding.<br />
<a href="http://rga.com/award/rockstar.html" target="blank">http://rga.com/award/rockstar.html</a></p>
<p><strong>Peoplesâ€™ Choice Award: The Fan</strong><br />
This is a great place to get the latest news in video format.<br />

<p>Congratulations to everyone who made the finals!</p>
