System Of A Down - Lost in Hollywood - Old Flash

Sat, 03/07/2020 - 19:11

Set the way back machine to the late 90's early 2000's I was really into Flash. Like web development it provided a great medium for stretching both my creative and technical muscles. Like many Flash enthusiasts my copy was cracked. I "started" a ton of projects in Flash. Heck, I started a ton of little projects in this time period; animations, games, 3D models, etc ... And the worst part is I don't have any of the working files for any of this stuff! That's the really frustrating part.

 

Homepage Animation Block For Drupal 8

Wed, 02/21/2018 - 12:18

Many websites have an animation of some kind running on the homepage. My website is no exception however, I like to experiment with different animations and such and I am sure I will want to regularly swap them out. I could simply dump in a new file whenever I want to make a change but, I like to design things that are a little more elegant. Something that might be used by other people in the real world. So, I built this simple module.

Some Old 3D Animation I Built With Anim8or

Mon, 01/15/2018 - 18:59

This stuff used to be so much fun to build...1. I wish I still had all the stuff I built. 2. I wish I was still inspired to do this stuff...Now I sit down, start to do some modeling and in a few minutes I find myself coding or watching a YouTube video...It just doesn't hold my interest as much anymore. This was back in 2008 - 2010 ... ish.

Meh...Maybe some day soon I'll get inspired.

Animated Grass Coded Into Anim8or Using Game Maker Language

Mon, 01/15/2018 - 18:15

In the late 2000's I was really into 3D animation and making 3D games. I was primarily using a free program called Anim8or. The program saved its files as a readable text file that could easily be edited. Also, to program had some simple methods for morphing model animation. I decided to do a few experiments dynamically creating animation by combining the output of another program I was using at the time Game Maker.

Fun 404 Pages

Wed, 08/16/2017 - 20:14

Zip candleFor fun on occasion I will build a simple animation for the 404 "document not found" page of a website I am building. Over the last few years working for Geographics I built a few. There is an office cat named Zip who is often my muse and is the subject of all of these animations. Unfortunately I do these on my spare time and I tended to quit before they were finished.
