The Ultimate Dinosaurs was an incredibly intense and fun iPad / iOS project to work on for the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto Canada. I had the pleasure of building two iPad apps installed on to 26 display panels each one with unique content. Visitors can explore evolutionary and geological stories by ‘swiping’ interactive touch based applications, with sound and HD video at various iPad stations positioned next to the dinosaur displays!
Please go to the Royal Ontario Museum to check it out in person!
I had the pleasure of designing and developing the incredibly fun video game Nomatics available for iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and web browsers. The client was looking to create an engaging online experience loosely related to a television show called “What’s In A Name?” that would keep the brand alive and relevant long after the shows was being aired on History Television. In response to that request I created a fun action puzzle game using Unity3D an incredibly powerful game engine that allows you to create fantastic games that can be played on multiple platforms (xbox, playstation, wii, web, iOS, Android).

I was hired to create an After Effects animation to help visualize concepts of what Vindicia does for its customers. This project included tight deadlines and lots of communication with the customer the make sure the visuals really communicated what Vindicia does. Gregory Nersesian assisted me on this project ensuring every deadline was met ahead of schedule. The client was extremely happy with the results and the project was incredibly successful.

Built a vote calculator for FairVote.ca that visually show users the predicted voting results based on proportional and traditional first past the post electoral systems. The application required heavy coordination with another server developer. As the user changes the values in the visualizer the results are constantly being processed by the server and updated by the Flash application. The end result was educational and fun and proved to be extremely popular in the 2011 Canadian Federal Election!
The Lost Girl : Interactive Motion Comic was an incredibly fun project to work on as I got to combine a lot of different skill sets in one project, design, programming and animation. Bedlam Games hired me to create an Interactive Motion Comic application in Flash, as the lead designer and programer I was responsible for the design and development of the entire application.
After I finished animating the dry run / pilot I designed and dveloped a video player capable of loading multiple video streams simultaneously. Users were prompted with different paths at key points in the story. The application was able to switch streams instantly by intelligently buffering the videos in the background.
It was a joy to work Tigh Walker a well known comic book artist who provided fantastic artwork, very talented writter Navid Khavari who wrote the script and animator Gregory Nersesian who did great job animating the project in After Effects. Paul Forest built new episodes by inserting new content and making minor code tweaks after I left to work on another project.
