I was tinkering around with Body Project NYC, a site I did some time ago. The site uses PictoBrowser to power the homepage slideshow. After I fixed the site and upgraded to the latest version of wordpress I got to creating a slideshow of my own.

Hope you enjoy the photos below!

Here’s the backstory:
This past summer, I worked with Mitch Said on a new project : a canary torsi

acanary1

As part of this project, we did a custom setup of Jelly, a custom Content Management System (CMS), to integrate with Flash so all updates to the flash site can be managed by online software.

We also used Slideshow Pro to manage the online media gallery. Slideshow Pro was a great addition to our project as it allowed for the client to manage their rich media library online.

A little more about the project:
The flash file uses netstream to serve the video files. We tried to stream multiple movies at once, but had severe performance issues. In addition to the web development, I also worked with Yanira on developing an online publicity campaign for Dark Horse/Black Forest.

As part of this campaign, we produced a live webcast, commissioned Overheredarkhorse.com, and setup accounts on mutiple social networks to share all these exciting updates with her existing fans.

All the video that you see for Dark Horse/Black Forest was also shot by Mitch and myself.

All in all, we were really happy with the project and we’re really stoked Slideshow Pro featured our site!

So instead of waiting to launch, I’ll keep developing and making updates here.

While I’m rebuilding everything, visit my blog for a peek into what’s happening and what I’m thinking.

Depending on the requirements of the project, I’ll usually use wordpress or drupal to help clients run their websites. Both platforms are very powerful and have a great set of built in features.

To get a better idea of some of the sites I’ve done, take a peek at the links below. Or visit my portfolio.

RECENT WORK :
The Body Project

I also teach folks how to run their drupal or wordpress blog.
