6.5 Seconds That Matter

Description
Agency: Draftfcb Toronto

Marketers have 6.5 seconds to get their message across strongly to consumers. Draftfcb's new global website is centered around what matters to you. I was responsible for all HTML, jQuery, and CSS development for the website. The pages are supplemented heavily with Javascript effects, yet were developed to degrade gracefully for users without Javascript.

Agency: Draftfcb Toronto

Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership needed an intuitive way to display information about the many places to visit in Ontario. This map was developed to show potential visitors that Ontario has much to offer. Developed in ActionScript 3, the map has a fully-featured editor that lets the client drag-and-drop markers and edit existing information while in the actual map, seeing their changes as they make them. There is no more fussing around with Flash to make simple and even complex edits; they can simply make the changes, review them, and then publish to the website. Deep-linking is also present, so users can send direct links to markers to their family and friends.

Wanna party? The Edge Epsilon Gamma Delta fraternity house has many rooms that can be explored and lots of hidden easter eggs. The site contained plenty of product information, pickup tips, an events calendar, and different ways to enter a contest for a trip to a party. Seamless video uploading and voting built in, the Fraternity site was built in Flash and ActionScript 2. I also handled much of the back-end PHP coding. Site also available in French.

I needed to take the wonderful art assets and build a shell around the work, as well as coding the game and implementing the web-services. Work included a sequential preloader and building the global navigation. The game and discount code has been removed from the current iteration as the promotion is over.

Personal project.

An ActionScript3 framework compiled through the Flex SDK, swftly can read through XML files and create Flash websites much in the same way HTML works. Instead of being limited to static pages, however, animations can be executed as well as loading from rich data sources such as MySQL databases. When I get the time, I plan on open sourcing the framework and developing it further.

Description
Agency: Draftfcb London.

Worked through the London office on this HTML/Flash hybrid site. Merged with the Google Maps API, players are taken on a whirlwind tour of the world by solving puzzles and finding clues to find the next location. Very challenging, but very rewarding. My responsibilities included laying out the registration and leaderboard pages for the contest, and adding certain features to other tasks such as the scroll gadget for the sidebar.
