Induct Chuck
An inspiring story about an undefeated quarterback who only wanted to play in the NFL. His story and the petition was set up at this site to retroactively induct Chuck Ealey into the Hall of Fame. The site was built around the idea of social networking and spreading the word for a good cause. Including an "email a friend", donations page, gallery, petition and all stitched together in a rugged but animated graphics piece, in Toledo blue and gold. Built with Vetta-Zelo Interactive Marketing.

Adrienne Page
This site creates a more open feeling of navigation, and the overall impression that you are in fact moving around a canvas rather than navigating pages. The movement in the site is very natural, with smooth transitions and a slow subtly scaling background to make the canvas come to life. This site was built to showcase the work of Adrienne Page, an extremely talented and professional photographer.
Construction: Flash, PHP, Photoshop, SWFObject

Dakota County Technical College
Approaching this project, it was clear that Dakota County Technical College had a serious navigation problem with their existing site. Students had an impossible time figuring out where to go to do things as essential as registering for classes. This site was completely redesigned to match DCTC's print collateral, and bring a more professional feel to the college's website. Done in collaboration with Lancet Software.
Construction: ColdFusion, Photoshop, MooFx, sIFR

Ruby Reds Floral & Garden
A relatively simple and clean site built to showcase the work of a local floral arranger. This site much like other gallery sites includes a back-end tool for managing and updating photos from anywhere via personal login and web interface. This site also incorporates a simple Ajax contact form to avoid any jarring page changes.

Crave Restaurant
Making a Flash site today is tricky, long gone are the days of long load times. Crave was a great experience in creating a dynamic atmosphere with a lot of random movement and design elements. Each visit, the candle lights will never be the same. Even subtle details like the bluring box never remain the same. Done in collaboration with Vetta-Zelo.
Construction: Flash, Actionscript, Photoshop

The Flip Squad
West coast startup jam band The Flip Squad came looking for a solid site they could keep up and manage to keep their fans informed on upcoming events, and to hand off to local venues. The site was a great sampling of dimmension, and a grunge feel, while keeping it fun.
Construction: Photoshop, WordPress, sIFR

Mannedge Consulting
A full identity project along with the website, the Mannedge brand was developed for a client opening his business as an owner's representative. This site tied in a contact form on the bottom of every page, allowing for quick access to the owner of the business, and some basic javascript functions inluding ajax email, and a Lightbox gallery. The design strives for a contemporary and cool, clean feel.
Construction: Photoshop, sIFR, Ajax, LightboxJS

Captira

Construction: Flash, After Effects, Adobe Creative Suite, Toast for Hybrid CD
