Dynamo Système

A great little microsite, done in Flash, AS3. There’s some nice interactive features and video too. It was good to do some Flash work for a change, and I enjoyed getting the frosting and bubbles working.

A challenging design due to a lot of transparent PNGs, but satisfying to conquer - especially in IE! The positioning of a few of the images and the different cloud backgrounds cause a few headaches, but ultimately it turned out fine!

A combination of HTML and Flash, with a competition management system and a WordPress blog. There’s also the age gateway and a couple of contact forms.

A standard HTML site, with some nice design elements that proved a little challenging to realise. They look really good though, and it’s nice to get that stretches you.

The Midori Mix

This was a nice project which involved the age gateway, a CMS and some feeds for the flash. The CMS stores the venue locations and also manages the gallery, and then creates feeds that are read by Flash.

This was an interesting project, a PHP competition management system. The client can create a competitions, set start and end dates, enter questions and use the system to select winners.

WordPress iPhone theme

This was just a bit of fun, I wanted all those lucky people out there with iPhones to feel special, so I created a special WordPress Theme just for them. I has nothing to do with the fact that I’ve just got an iPhone. Nothing at all.

I enjoyed playing with the nice webkit features, especially the buttons - very nice! If only all sites could be made for just one browser. Sigh.

You can view the theme from your iPhone, or you can download iPhoney if you’re really desperate to see it!

ITV - Emmerdale Interactive

Darren — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 16:22:52 +0000

An in-house communications tool used by the writers and producers of the hit ITV soap Emmerdale to discuss upcoming story-lines and share resources. A secure login system was needed due to the nature of the content on the site. Created using PHP, mySQL and some nice AJAX elements.

This has to be the most fun project I have done to date, an AS3 Flash game from scratch. I love the graphics, which were created by Walter Newton. Feed the customers before they get annoyed and leave the shop, by throwing cakes at them!

The Chicago Spire

An AS3 Flash site to which I contributed a number of different parts, including the contact section. I also worked on an in-house touch screen sales tool which interfaced with Microsoft Office and was controlled by a Wii remote.
