Long time no blog! I just found out I will be presenting at Flash Forward in San Francisco on August 21, 2008. At this point I know I will be presenting with Neil Ishibashi, Disney.com Art Director extraordinaire. As to what exactly we will be presenting, I’m not 100% sure. I know it will be along the lines of Engineer/Creative work flow on the all new disney.com. Our presentation will be at 10am - 11am on Thursday morning, directly following the Adobe keynote (not a bad lead in). Leave me a commnet if you are going to be there and if there are any particular items you would like us to cover in our presentation.

Here I sit in cold Winnipeg Manitoba, my hometown. I am here for the FITC conference, wearing my Jets jersey (of course). Why Winnipeg you ask? I was asking the same question myself until I got here. There are approximately 175 people here, doesn’t sound like a lot, but for Winnipeg it is. And a lot of the people seem to be very passionate about new media here. There are a few small shops, a couple larger ones, and a bunch of students who seem to be very interested in new media. Critical Mass, the company I work for, is the gold sponsor here and we are also presenting. Being a gold sponsor means we get a big booth, we stand there, and we answer the same questions over and over again all day. Don’t get me wrong, I love it. I like talking to other developers or other people interested in new media. I have met a couple very interesting people, and who knows, maybe I will work with them one day. Afterall, the flash community is pretty small even with it’s astronomical growth in the past while.

Anyway, I am going to sign out now, almost lunch time here in the ‘peg. If you’re here, stop by and say hi. If not, go stand with your freezer door open and you will soon feel like you are here.
