Flash Samples

I now have most of my client work listed on the homepage, so I am using this space to show and discuss some of my other Flash projects. Sometimes I get an idea stuck in my head, so I build it. Some things aren't even done. Often I only build an app far enough to test the technology or idea, then I put it aside until I need it... so please ignore the unfinished aspects of each application. I'm sharing them to help you explore the depth of interactivity and functionality that I can offer.

  • Wiping Photo Slideshow
    • image data loaded from XML file
    • a mouse "wipe" effect for progression through the pics (sweep to right, then to left)
    • buttons for additional photo navigation
  • Animated Drawing Application
    • you draw a picture and it animates your brush strokes back for you
    • I built it to test the data storage requirements for mouse movement capture
    • it could easily be upgraded with brush size and other drawing mthods that would be animated back
  • Internet Chess Board
    • online chess game I built to play with my friend before he passed on
    • if you want to check it out, you'll need to open two browser windows or tabs (one for each player)
    • it does not stop you from moving a piece incorrectly, but your opponent can reject your move
    • it works for live play, or just login now and then to make your move (like penpal chess)
    • also includes a chat log
  • Snow storm
    • snow effect with adjustments for wind speed and density
    • built to test a random snow effect I later used in a client logo
  • Amusement park animation
    • a portion of a park with a few animated rides
    • I built this to show the park a sample (like Sugar Bowl's prototype), though I never did contact them... maybe this year :)
