NFB HTML 5 Video Player

Sample Project -- This is a template only!

Project Description

The National Film Board of Canada is an agency of the Ministry of Canadian Heritage, and has been using Flash web technology to provide free viewings of their films online since January 2009. Inspired by Popcorn.js they are looking to develop a video player using HTML5 and JavaScript. Extending on the basic video capabilities of play/pause/stop/volume, this player will be skinnable for consistent viewing across web browsers, and a large focus will be placed on accessibility in the form of subtitles and screen reader compatibility as well as social networking interaction. Complete information can be seen at the NFB's developer centre.
