Microsoft and Lionsgate collaborate on Hunger Games Explorer

With the second film in the Hunger Games series, Catching Fire, set to release this fall, Internet Explorer has teamed up with Lionsgate to bring you Hunger Games Explorer – the place for Hunger Games fans to get all of their content online. 

Today, with the global launch of the Catching Fire trailer, fans can now visit the Hunger Games Explorer to track every development of Catching Fire including tweets, exclusive images and videos, and then share their thoughts and excitement with others around the world.

Some site features include:

·         Site customization allowing the user to create their own homepage exactly how they want it. They can tailor and filter content in and out of their stream, pull in fan blogs and tweets, and interact with other fans across the globe.

·         The site is the destination for all official content straight from Lionsgate, including trailers, excusive videos, photos of the cast and more.

·         Hunger Games Explorer takes full advantage of multi-touch technology, letting visitors swipe and scroll with the flick of a finger.

·         The site includes a new feature called “sparking” similar to letting fans “like” objects while driving discussion around each bit of news or fan-created content. 

Our goal was to create the best fan site possible, showcasing responsive web design, multi-touch and HTML5, so it really shined on Windows 8 with IE10, as well as other major platforms across the web. The resulting community allows users to interact and engage in conversations in a much easier, more interesting way across platforms and devices.
