Welcome to the Wacky World of Jazz and Thelonious Moog. This group came to me about a month ago and supplied me with great illustration work by Wayno. The group wanted an updated site that they could incorporate mp3 samples and also some video. If you like cool wacky synth jazz you should check this one out.

This web site was the first on that I got to use the new Adobe CS3 Web Design Premium that I purchased. The integration between photoshop and Flash was great. I was able to design every page using Wayno’s illustration work in photoshop and then dump that right into flash for building the animations for the web site.

This was a fun project that I got to work on last week. All you guys should check it out. You could win a new Chevy Silverado!

On this project I did 99% of it animating with actionscript only. You guys should really check out the Fuse Kit for actionscript animation if you have not already.

This was a project that I got to work on with Echo Music. Basically the animation on the intro to the site and the animation on the main home page was done by me. As always check out more of my stuff via my web site. http://mswallace.com

The link to the actual web site is dead now. I guess the Holiday is over so the site is over till another Thanksgiving comes around.

This was a great project that I got to work on for the Gospel Music
Channel in conjunction with DIRECTV. I was able to do three different
Flash animated cards showing the different styles of music that are
available. Really a fun project. Best part is I got to use some of the
new Flash 8 filters. Here are links to the three different cards. Even got to build in some flash video too.

So I just finished up a project this week. It was for a new country singer / songwriter out of Nashville, TN.

Now, personally I am not a big country fan. Over all I think the site turned out great. In addition to designing the site I also designed the artist an eCard. This is a great flash based tool that the artist can use for spreading the word and also give the fans a way to pass around the music and buy merchandise from the artist as well, and if you look hard enough on this one you may find some free music.

So I have not posted here is a long time it seams. I have been working really hard to start doing all my animation in flash or at least 90% of it using actionscript. The files are just so much smaller and more optimized animating this way. I am using a great resource for this called the Fuse Kit. you can learn all about it at http://www.mosessupposes.com/Fuse/

The flash animated ecard that I just finished using the Fuse kit is a production for the band SonicFoold. More about them at http://sonicflood.com.

Here is a link to the ecard so you can check it out. http://buzzplant.com/sonicflood/ecard2 and wile you are at it check out my web site for more great Flash stuff that I have done at http://mswallace.com

So here is my latest eCard that I designed in flash. Nothing really special but I think it turned out well. This was for a Christian Artiste - Scott Riggan.

I used Flash 8 as always. I guess the most complex part of this was the mp3 player, and it is not that big of a deal if you have been working in flash for a wile. It has your basic external XML file that loads the song information and also tells flash where to look for all the song files on the server. Enjoy!

So here is a very cool little project that I did on not long ago. I got a new mobile phone called a Pebl. I liked the design and how simple it looked so much that I thought it would make a great MP3 player. Well this is the result. The Flash MP3 Pebl

All the song information is brought into the player using an external xml file and all the songs are loaded from a folder on the server as well. Pretty dang cool. Another thing that I did was use some of the new filters that come with Flash 8. All the glows and shadowing that you see on this Flash MP3 player are using some kind of Flash 8 filter. One of the really cool things that you can do with the filters is tween them as well. If you click around on this MP3 player a bit you will see what I mean. I hope you enjoy!
