Sometimes, even if your skills are in high demand, things get slow. This summer has been slow for me. Thankfully, things are beginning to pick up a little. However, if business is slow, then that may be the perfect time to put yourself out there as a volunteer. The benefits are more exposure for you, and the charity you do it for. It can also develop into a more long-term relationship with financial benefits in the future. Many organizations have advertising budgets and will turn to people they already know when they need help.

I had an opportunity to help out a church group, that I’m a member of, by making a short video to introduce a new series topic that the pastor was going to begin speaking on. It also gave me the opportunity to recruit a film student, who is also a member of our church, to help out! Debora SantaCruz from Full Sail University in Orlando sent me some interviews by email!

Here is the video in another Adobe Flash, created in Encore, micro-site.

An Example Of Adobe CS Integration

I have a link to my Wedding and Events mini-site available to those who would like to see it. I made this, not just to demo my weddings and events production, but also to show an example of how you can generate a nice looking Flash video site using Adobe Encore. Email me if you would like to take a look!

Using Multimedia For Fund Raising

I was in Fortaleza, Brazil this week doing some pro bono consulting work at a school for street children, and a church. They both iterated their belief that multimedia is highly important for the promotion of their work and for fund raising, and also their confusion about how it could actually help them in a measurable way.

That second part is a killer.

I worked for nearly 11 years on-and-off for a large fund raising machine and they could never figure it out. We knew that the multimedia product was helping to bring in money, because we had donors write letters and say so. However, we were not able to come up with a substantive way to measure how much.

I’m going to leave the comments open on this one, so please share your ideas!

Thanks!

Making things flexible.

One of the weaknesses of using cascading style sheet templates, in my opinion, is that it can be complicated to make them flexible enough to fit all of the screen dimensions and resolutions out there. Most people are migrating to wide screen LCDs, so a lot of the CSS templates are set, more-or-less, to look good for them. When you show the same page on a 4:3, or lower resolution monitor, then parts can get cut, or you loose important elements of the background.

We have tried to make our page more flexible to fit all monitors. Things still get squished, and a border gets cut, but all the content stays on the page.

We have been aware for a long time that our site needed modernization. We began working with CSS on our MySpace page and liked the way it looked. As a result, we have begun working on this site using a similar theme. Hope you like it!
