Multimedia and design
I hold a degree in "Interactive Media" and I've been doing multimedia work for over 25 years. 25 years ago multimedia was only available on CD ROM or game console. There were a few online experiences, but the bandwidth wasn't fast enough yet. All of the media we consume these days on our phones, tablets and laptops would have been considered "multimedia", but it is so integrated into our lives now we just lump it all into the bucket of "content". I guess this now makes me a "content creator".
Over my career I have created countless "product tours", interactive marketing apps, touchscreen applications, Educational CD ROM materials, websites and more. I enjoy brining the different disciplines together to create something larger than the sum of its parts.

Consumer PPT design
Power Point is still a major delivery method for sharing information. I managed and produced a wide variety of materials for the consumer PC market. These projects are focused sprints that require discipline and excellent time management skills.
Interactive product tours
Aniden was responsible for HP's "Interactive product Tours" for several years. We produced most of them in Flash with XML feeding the content. I was responsible for "producing" well over 100 tours over a few year period. This included design, XML programing and Flash animation. I was also responsible for client interfacing.
HP Blade Systems tour
This was a very complex tour for the HP Blade Systems. Created with Flash, XML and audio files. This was dynamically translated into several languages.
HP Wireless Audio
This tour was XML driven with mp4 files for each section. The XML implementation allows for easy translation.
