I submitted my Buubuu Farm iPhone app to the Apple app store 3 weeks ago. As you probably know the whole whole process of getting your apps on the app store can be quite protracted. One of main reasons why I made this Buubuu Farm app was to simply be able to understand and learn from the process for future projects.

Well, I thought I had done it correctly and jumped through all the various hoops Apple threw at me but the other day I received an email saying “We’ve reviewed Buubuu Farm and determined that we cannot post this version of your iPhone application to the App Store at this time because it does not contain an Application rating. Please visit iTunes Connect and rate your application appropriately. Once the necessary modifications are completed, please let us know so we can proceed with the review. ” Mmm, I was sure that I did rate it when I first submitted it.

Ah well, I am not too unhappy. At least they let me knew what the problem was and it seems simple enough to fix. I have rated the App now, Buubuu Farm is about as family / kid safe as you can get.

Is all I have to do is reply to the email they sent? That is all they seem to be saying.

Here is a fresh take on the CSS grid (loosely based on Nathan Smith’s 960 Grid System). Its mission is to be lightweight. And, as I’ll show in part 2, it can be used to streamline page templates for content management. All this in just one measly kilobyte (actually, 662 bytes, but who’s counting)

We built a bespoke camera system in Flash which allowed us to quickly sketch out the animations to rough guide voice over tracks. We then refined and tweaked the animations to the final voice over.

The animations were designed to as clear and instructional as possible but still aesthetically pleasing, which I think we achieved well. The animations are accurate and precise and were all approved by the AA’s chief driving instructor.

jdp is a media company specialising in wildlife television, feature films and commercials. It has won numerous international awards for its innovative approach to filmmaking. It made its name by abandoning the traditional style of nature documentary and pioneering a highly inventive subjective approach. Through the use of new dramatic techniques it was possible, for the first time, to plunge the audience into the animal world.

JDP pioneered many of the spectacular techniques now commonplace in wildlife filmmaking. If you see an eyeball to wingtip shot of a flying bird, a shot from a camera on an animal’s back, a simulated animal viewpoint or a moving track around an animal frozen in time, you can be sure JDP created it first.

Stuart has worked with JDP for over 5 years. He created the companies branding and identity and online presence.
