What I Like Micro-site

Flash Development

Mudd Puppy, Girls Inc.

Lenovo X1 micro site

Flash Development

Stink Digital

The Lenovo micro-site plays a video of the product as it’s used with various features called out based on cue points, resolving to a summary page.

The Mechanic Expanding Banner

Flash Development

The Mechanic (2010) banner is based on the visually more complicated Faster banner, but this banner was release before either the red band trailer or ticket times would be available. It tests every time it loads to see if assets are present before it creates the menu interface.

Faster Expanding Banner

Flash Development

Maude

The code for this banner for Faster (2010) had to self-adjust for standard and 728x90 size, and also be easily finessed for changes in the layout. There are 36 posible transitions, based on whether the Rock’s image is present, which way new elements enter, what space is available for buttons. I used the State Machine pattern for this banner for maximum flexibility.

Beardtober

Flash Development

This site documented Maude’s Beardtober event. The participating men didn’t shave for a month, and each day their beards’s progress was documented. Matt Jennings, the designer, had to be able to easily update photos. And if he missed anything, the site complained about it.

MTV Widget

Flash Development

Maude

MTV’s annual awards show needed a widget, which turned into a mini-application. Voting, watching videos, a twitter feed, tweeting directly from the widget, adding to your Facebook account, and a news feed all in 300x250px. It builds itself on the fly, and could be easily updated for future shows.

The League Season Premiere Widget

Flash Development

Relpax EDetail

Flash Development

Draft FCB

The Relpax eDetail is an on-line app with animated graphs synched to a voice-over. The app either generates a 5-chapter presentation or a 8-chapter presentation depending on a code passed in. I also developed a liquid-layout handler and a Factory/Injection pattern that animates the information based on how the assets are built.
Because the eDetail contains internal information it cannot be public. If you want to know more about it please contact me.
