Pixel Farm Blog
Pixel Farm is a Minneapolis post-production company specializing in visual FX, video, audio, Blu-ray DVD, etc etc. It’s also where I work, the parent company to Pixel Farm Interactive. I made the Pixel Farm blog as part of their online rebranding effort. It is companion site to a new flash-based spot library site which is nearing completion. More on that later.
Cynthia Kraack website
A custom WordPress site I did for upcoming speculative fiction writer, Cynthia Kraack. She has completed her first book, Minnesota Cold, and is already working on a second.

Enpath Medical / Greatbatch eLearning
While the visual template is none of my doing, I did provide Technical Direction and some of the actionscript implementation for the development of 6 flash-based eLearning courses, including the skinning of the PFI LMS and the buildout of flash modules which track score and completion in the LMS. These interact with the LMS through a custom javascript API and the Flash ExternalInterface class.
