Zeno Crivelli - SublimeVideo
summary
A demo becomes a product: SublimeVideo goes from viral demo to service with 1 million unique visitors and a cloud player that updates centrally — launched as a hosted service in launched March 2011. Engineering choices: HTML5 player with a Flash fallback, unified rendering via SVG/Canvas/Flash, a single code base compiled from CoffeeScript, and a graphics layer bundled into SublimeVideo Horizon. Result: branded HTML5 players that run across desktop, mobile and legacy browsers, with modular add‑ons, YouTube integration and subtitle/caption work underway.
