Southland: The Southland Log Homes site showcases virtual tours, floor plans, computer renderings, and altitude profiles for many log home designs. The site required a complex user layer for aggressive marketing giving access to more content, based on levels of commitment to purchase. I was responsible for theming and developing the main log homes, floor plans, and profiles sections, as well as the searching mechanism and hooking into the user layer. The site is in non-public alpha.
Holiday Inn: Powered by the Cisco community portal CMS behind community.nascar.com, the Holiday Inn Racing crew project relied solely on publishing CSS and image assets to Cisco servers. I was responsible for slicing the creatives and coding the CSS to control the presentation of static content.
Amenities Care: The Amenities Care site is the Web front for the service arm of Pisell Enterprises. The site uses the Drupal open-source framework to power the content, architecture and presentation. I was responsible for hooking into the PHPTemplate theming engine to control the layout and design.
NASCAR: NASCAR's Local Racing site employs demanding content architecture with a strong visual theme across many NASCAR sub-sites. The design requirements were strict to maintain cohesion with NASCAR.com's site design. The Series section required URI argument-driven content display for standings, race schedules and news. I was responsible for designing and developing the Series section.
Sex and the City: This New Line Cinema/HBO marketing project was a primarily flash, contest-driven promo site. The project required good user feedback, secure information transfer, multilingual support for French and usage tracking. I was responsible for the ActionScript and PHP to power the main flash content and usage tracking of the "Flash Your Fidostyle!" section.
Ekklesia International: This project is to be the central hub of communication for Ekklesia International with a strong social site leaning. There will be blogs, a forum, mp3 downloads, with a view to support video and e-commerce. The design requirements were very relaxed giving a lot of creative freedom. I was responsible for the site design, opting for a youthful, artistic visual tone with curved lines to contrast the lines of the textured backgrounds.
