Well this time its with the Halo 2 web site designer. They have a very cool and unique look to it, Especially since they used a Covanant Dialect to decorate it.

HomeLAN - How did the idea come about to make the web site in this alien Covenant code?
Rikki Khanna - We’re always looking for different perspectives on our projects to break through. We thought that it would be an interesting twist on the campaign to look at the impending invasion scenario from the Covenant’s perspective. Our knowledge of Halo 1 enabled us to design a site and a language that Bungie felt was true to the Covenant.
HomeLAN - How much work did the company do with Bungie in creating the alien language?
Rikki Khanna - AKQA worked closely with Bungie throughout the whole process.
HomeLAN - How hard is it to create an entire alien language from scratch?
Rikki Khanna - Bungie provided some example Covenant iconography which became the building blocks of the Covenant alphabet. AKQA augmented the look and feel of the symbols and our font designer to complete the project. |
Very cool! Check out the site! |
