And everything in its place.
OUT OF THEIR MINDS DESIGN
Design/Programming
My old site checked the time of day and gave an appropriate theme to match, be it night, day, or dawn/dusk. All of the clouds slowly blow from left to right, and those along the bottom are interactive, producing small puffs on rollover. The main viewing window arose from the clouds on the first click.
EDGE ENTERPRISES
Design/Programming/Illustration/Writing
For over 11 years, I worked on Flash-based interactive presentations for challenged junior high and high school students to aid in their writing. My projects were, at first, simply designing navigational elements/ UX, but over time I became more involved. I designed and implemented a program that would populate the screen with UI elements, move forward based on soundclips imported into the projector, looking for the next soundclip before moving on to the next “row” of subject matter. On the last row, it went to the next lesson. I also built a quizzing system that handled multiple-choice, identifying individual words and labeling them as subject/verb/etc. I wrote a story to go with the latest presentations, to get the students more interested; a malfunctioning onboard AI requires strict adherence to proper English before a written distress call will be sent. We needed some pictures to go along with our story about a stranded space cargo-ship pilot. This image is from a pivotal moment in the plot, wherein your ship is damaged.
SLIGH FURNITURE
Design/Programming (partnered with Brandon Gohsman)
Sligh was a freelance client of mine for nearly a decade before ownership changed hands. Rob Sligh was always looking for a new technological leap forward on his company’s site. We added bold, customer-friendly ways to refine search results for the wide array of furniture available. I made a number of animated product feature segments, which can be viewed here.
CLARE WADE COMMUNICATIONS
Design/Programming (Programmed in-part with Daniel Tyger, while with Square One Design)
I designed this site while Clare’s identity was a pair of waders, seen in the lower right. The site was designed so the user would always be looking at one of the four corners of a larger square. (Or the menu in the middle.)
CENTER FOR CREATIVE STUDIES
Interface Design/Programming (while with Square One Design)
Center for Creative Studies, based in Detroit, came to Square One with a need to look more creative online. Also designed two spreads/pages. In addition to my other duties, I got to make some fun little interactive toys like the lines on this page. They turned a bright blue when touched, and made a tone like a wind-chime.
JEUP FURNITURE
Design/Programming (while with Square One Design)
I designed the whole site to work like a horizontal slider. The user could click a button along the top to make large leaps by category, or little steps along the bottom by clicking on each piece. The map was made so that you could click by dot on the map, or by city name on the right.
