• Built a data visualization component in the CMS with Highcharts.js for JPM.com

• Interactive components showcasing small collections of the firm's art, media or history archives

• Contributed to brand templates and internal demo site

• Animated many (online) holiday cards for the firm. These were animated with Raphael.js so I could animate SVG vector graphics across all browsers. Yes, IE6, and this was a requirement

• I built banner ads in Flash / HTML and used Sizmek to deploy them

• After Effects when needed

• HTML5 banner ad animations using SVG, canvas and lots of GSAP

• Rich media units with varying levels of interactivity and server side data

• DoubleClick

• QA and perfectionism

I took many of the challenging projects, like the Thanksgiving Day Parade ads with 1000 balloons, 4th of July Fireworks ads with perfectly tweaked particle emitters, or the Versace ads where the client provided one flat image and we had to make an etherial luxury animation out of it. Originally this was a Flash animation role but our team moved to HTML in 2013. When we moved to HTML I stepped up to build the branded templates using SVG — this included training the design team how to prepare SVG assets and training the dev team how to animate them.

I taught courses in interaction design in the Graduate Communications Design Dept. Primarily my students were very green with code, but between their existing skills with inVision prototypes and my code examples, often students found they loved the code. Several of my students work at fantastic design firms in the city specializing in hybrid design/development roles. Other students concentrated on UX strategy (less development), and other students experimented with OpenFrameworks. Responsibilities included several rounds of critiques during the semester and departmental critiques at the end of semester.

I also taught one semester of Motion Graphics in the undergraduate COMD on the Brooklyn Campus in Spring 2011.

In the Fall of 2010 I left NYC to teach at my Alma mater for one semester totalling 5 sections of undergraduate courses.
3 sections: Animation 1, This is the first course offered for Animation majors. This course taught animation fundementals using After Effects. This might be my favorite class I've ever taught because the students were all entering the first class for their chosen major so they were excited to learn and were fully invested.
2 Sections: Intro to Digital Media Arts, this was an open ended intro course for interactive and digital media. Primariy I introduced students to the worlds of interaction design, web animation with small projects that were acheivable by beginners. For instance I introduced OpenFrameworks very early in the semester to show the possibilities and the grander vision of interaction design beyond the web, but the primary goal for the course was to introduce them to the tools and the concepts and not necessarily to get them to try to learn entire development languages.

CS Designworks is a small design studio in Midtown with primarily corporate and real estate clients. I helped build pages in an existing framework for Cushman & Wakefield's marketing website, built microsites for other clients, firms and corporate office buildings, and the ocassional After Effects animation for an event. At CSD I built a flash banner ad for One World Trade Center just as the building was being completed. I left my role here to accept a temporary teaching position at Missouri State University.

Another kinetic sculpture Landscape Machine was included in the MSU Faculty Art Exhibition. The piece was mounted to the ceiling in two parts, one side that mounted a fixed height cable, and another side 12_ft away that moved a cable mount up and down, allowing a wheel with a video projector to freely roll left or right. I used OpenFrameworks and a video camera to then capture the movements of this free-rolling projector so I could play video based on the projector's left/right proximity. The video is of a traditional outdoor landscape (with a a few digital augmentations) and the OF software simpily slid the video left and right to make the video to appear to shine a hole through the wall.

My kinetic sculpture The Relationship Between Free-Wheeled and Determined Actions was chosen to be included in the MSU Centennial Art Exhibition Art Exhibition for Missouri State University. The piece hung in the center of a room with 20_ft ceilings and it spins a bicycle wheel at a constant pace causing an attached bowling ball to drop and shake the machine, which in-turn caused a loosly attached wheel at the far end to flip, or spin somewhat irregularly and unpredictably.
