Portfolio & samples

I've been working as a web developer the past couple of years specialising in Flash, below are examples of few of the more recent Flash applications and websites that I've built. Please keep in mind that the work has been modified for portfolio use.

Link to Sleeper flash sample

Sleeper flash website

Sleeper is an action horror film shot in Australia 2008 by writer/director Dru Brown and producer Judd Tilyard. On this website I worked with designer Donna Lays and web developer Chris Samios to produce the website. I was responsible for all of the Flash development.

Some techniques used on this Flash site include: loading external images/xml, streaming media, SEO optimisation, and statistical feedback/recording.

Flash games

During my time working for Education Queensland I was responsible for developing large quantities of 'learning objects' such as Flash games and activities. The Flash games here are a couple of the more colourful examples.

These games were included as a reward to activities performed by the student. If the student reached a certain score they would be able to unlock different games. So keep in mind that these games have been been taken out of the context, if you're interested in seeing more, I have many more available.

Flash animations

Animation is one of my favorite areas of Flash, here are few examples of animations that I've created. The first is a Flash banner, there were extreme limitations on the file size, the final version was <100kb including sounds. The second example was a short animation I created in Adobe Premier, it is an adaptation of the beloved Green Eggs & Ham story by Dr. Seuss (sound has been removed)

RITES teaching tool

RITES is a teaching tool developed for a teacher at Distance Educaiton Queensland. I was responsible for managing the team that created the system, as well as coding and graphics for the Flash activities.

The system was implemented online with a PHP/MySQL interface for creating and modifying content. To produce the educational games, the system exported content from the database into an XML format, that was read by applications developed in Flash.
