Wednesday - April 1, 2009
It's been a long time since I've updated anything. I've been busy working and sharpening my skills! I have finally worked on my Demo Reel for 2009. It's uploaded in the Video's section.
I added a guestbook! Sign it, leave feedback, say hi!
I did a few major revisions to the site. I moved this page to its own "Updates" page. The update entries used to lie right on the home page. I'm going to save the home page for a welcome message and also leave space for a single important message/entry if needed.
From now on, visitors will have to click the updates tab to see what updates I have contributed to this site. I also created a banner for the top of the site. I felt it was just too empty at the top of the page. Hope it works well. I also added a few more sections to the "Videos" section.
Something fun: I added an easter egg, as well. It is a fairly easy easter egg, I wouldn't even really call it an easter egg, but it is a link that isn't so noticable. The easter egg is located on every page, same link which routes you to the same page. The page it the link points to isn't that cool, just some more info about who I am. I plan on adding more easter eggs for fun in the near future. I love to author DVD's, so I'm all about the easter eggs.
I went through and added some major changes and assets to the web site. I created graphics for the sides of each page [right side]. I also added the two green tabs/links on the top of this text panel. Added some small .PNG icons to spice up the site [created by Mark James at famfamfam.com]. There will also be a lot more developments coming within the next few days.
I added a couple more assets to my demo reel. I also converted my demo reel in Flash, so now you can watch the content as it's being downloaded/streamed. I also optimized my pages to support most major browsers including Internet Explorer [obviously], Mozilla FireFox 3.0, and Safari. I'm still pretty new to this web stuff, even though I have been working with web building and web assets for a number of years, off and on. I get excited pretty easily.

Finally got some things done on this site. I made all the links clickable on the menu docked on the left of every page. On the videos page I have uploaded my video demo reel of some of my most recent work. I am going to update my demo reel again pretty soon. I just finished up my internship, so now I will wait for my diploma to come through the mail!
With all the recent power outages throughout Michigan, I have had little time to spend working on this site. Also, work has consumed my energy recently, so I will try to get back to working on this web project again soon. Not many people see this, but just in case, thought I'd share.
This site is still under construction. Maybe another week, the functionality would be pretty much complete.
In the mean time, check out my demo reel here. Or you can check out my older web page here. I still update it and it features most of my recent work.
If you would like, you may email me.
