At TrialGraphix, a company part of the larger Kroll software corporation, I was involved with Flash and Actionscript daily in crafting graphics and interactive presentations for corporate law firms. Designing still and animated graphics, coordinating with art directors, 3D artists, and balancing multiple deadlines through Kroll's custom developed content management software consisted of daily workflow. In addition, programming Actionscript and interface design were heavily visited throughout the various projects. Delivery turn around times tended to be fast, usually two or three days to design and program self-contained Flash applications. As these projects were not intended for the web, they were more graphically rich and included coordination with After Effects and 3D.

Vokal is a small and talented team creating iPhone Apps for clients including Charter Digital Cable, art galleries, and larger software development companies. Slicing assets in Illustrator and creating vector graphics for use in Objective C programming, coordinating in Basecamp, and screen designs encompassed the first projects. Later I designed and programmed a jQuery suite of marketing sites intended for use in business presentations for potential clients as showcased in the above links. The iPhone screen designs for this project were meant to be a generic representation of possible apps, incorporating examples of the table view and functionality that iOS can bring in a marketing sense for various businesses Vokal continues to reach out to.
