Slice of Lime hosted their 10th Boulder Creative Commons last night with the theme “Time-Lapse.” The video above is the group creating our own time-lapse project during the meet up, starting with a blank chalkboard in the Slice of Lime offices.

Eric Baer spoke about his work on BoulderFlatironCam.com and Bruce Wyman (seen below) presented how the Denver Art Museum utilized time-lapse to capture the artists that participated in the current Embrace! exhibit.

More pictures and details on the event can be seen here.

Many thanks to our sponsors, Boulder Digital Arts and GoodBelly, and to everyone that participated to make this meet up a success!

We like to call it “inspirado,” and there are lots of sites we visit that do a great job of gathering new trends, ideas, and technologies. One of our new favs is Line 25, who we’ve been following since early March. They recently posted a showcase on horizontal bands, and we were geeked to see a site we designed: everywun.com. It’s pretty cool to discover your own work in a place visit for inspirado.

Check out the article, and let us know of your favorite places to find inspiration!

We’re excited to announce that Slice of Lime has won the Parents’ Choice Award for our work on the Big Green Rabbit website.

Established in 1978, Parents’ Choice Foundation is the nation’s oldest nonprofit consumer guide to quality children’s media. As a Parents’ Choice Award winner, the website is in a very select group. Fewer than 20% of the products submitted to the Parents’ Choice Awards program receive any level of commendation.

The Parents’ Choice Recommended Award gives the website their “thorough recommendation for reasons of production, appeal and fulfillment of its clear intent”.

We’re honored to be in the company of popular kids’ destinations such as Sesame Street and PBS Kids.

Our work on the Big Green Rabbit also received a Webby Official Honoree award earlier this year in two categories. Congratulations to the Slice of Lime team and the continued success of the Big Green Rabbit!
