I was the lead developer on this site for a reality / gameshow about video gamers for the Scifi Channel. Extensive use of CSS, PHP, JAVASCRIPT, and XML.

About the show:

Syfy, in partnership with Samsung and the World Cyber Games, presents an all-new reality competition series to find the “Best All-Around Gamer.” A diverse group of contestants embark on an intense and emotional journey in hopes of winning prizes that include $100,000 and the ultimate Samsung electronics package, complete with the company’s most advanced technology products. The winner will also be the face of WCG and represent the WCG at events around the globe including the 2009 Grand Final in China.

Co-hosted by Hannah Simone and Joel Gourdin, the series showcases twelve contestants who live together in a single loft in downtown Los Angeles. They will compete against each other in challenges that include traditional video game play as well as real-life video game simulations, which place the contestants in situations inspired by best-selling and world famous games. Throughout the competition, the ultimate gamer will need to excel both individually and with his or her teammates, have top-notch gamer skills and be able to handle the pressure of head-to-head elimination rounds played in an arena filled with hundreds of spectators. The ultimate gamer will also have to showcase their ability to navigate and manipulate a houseful of other die-hard gamers, all vying to be crowned number one.

WCG Ultimate Gamer was created and executive produced by Michael Agbabian and Dwight D. Smith, both of Phenomenon, Gameshow Marathon and Last Comic Standing fame.

Mass Effect 2

I created this screening room for thegame Mass Effect 2. It includes streaming video and css framework.This site also includes scrict age verification using PHP and Javascript and a few dynamic elements.

Tracking the page views, ad clicks, and sponsor click-throughs are essential for this kind of promotion. I accomplish this by intergrating a complex suite of dart tags, Omniture tracking, click trackers, redirection URLs, 1×1 javascript events, and CSS hidden layers.

Icreate many of these screening rooms for video games, television shows and movies as a way for advertisers to show trailers, coming attractions, and create buzz about the product. Video is one of the best ways to capture and keep an audience on the web. I create so many of these campaigns that it now takes me a couple of hours from start to finish!
