This design exploration is about a Flash companion book for the recent Frost/Nixon movie by Working Title Films. This studio has used their website to publicize their film in a reading-book style with Flash page-turning capabilities. They tell the film's story as well as the background information about the director Ron Howard's filming strategies, historic locations, production stories, and actors and cast members' backgrounds. The user gets the feeling like they are reading a script and production set design while paging through this companion book.
The Flash site is relatively simple and uses a page-turning script. The idea was to highlight the film and not to overwhelm the users with too much flash animation and complicated navigation. The movie is historical and tells a compelling story; the website does not have to add to this event and keeps the Flash to a minimum effect.
