Children Collide on 360Video

Check out http://www.childrencollide.com/
This is the new video clip from Children Collide - using the 360video player SeniorCreative developed for its client - Dean Poore at PanoramicVideo. I developed the player over an 18 month period for this client - and hooked him up with Johnny Mackay from the band and they took it from there to create this new clip which Universal records are touting as a world first. They called me a software wizard!

Blogger in Flash

Have recently created a flash module that renders out blogger posts for a new client. This extracts the blog from blogger using simplepie and spits out a name and value pair data string for flash urlloader. Then inside flash the images and text are loaded into dynamically created textfields. The clever part is I measure and monitor the load of the images using a loader and textfield.getImageReference() - I extract the Image ID's in the field using a string split very similar to a regExp. And when the image is loaded I wrap a specially measured linespacing textformat around the img tag in the textfield htmlText, based on the loaded image's pixel height. Subsequently I add consecutive blog posts underneath in a handbuilt scroller pane which scrolls with a handbuilt Scroller using nice Tweenlite easing.
