I created this layout for the Windows Media Group in 1998 soon after I started OverDrive Media. They required a clean professional web site layout for building demonstrations that would appeal to the entertainment industry. The layout uses a wider range of colors against a black background and incorporates stock photography.

Seattle Flash Designer and Web Designer : Mikey Longr:
I specialize in Seattle
Web Design and Seattle Flash Design. Michael has been working on the web for
over ten years and specializes not only in web design technologies like Macromedia
Flash and HTML but web development technologies including the asp, asp.net and
PHP4. As a Flash Designer in Seattle Washington I have done work for top names
in the ever expanding Flash Animation industry. I owned a new media and multimedia
design company for three years. OverDrive Media specilized in multimedia development
including Flash, streaming, web design and database driven media systems.
Flash has revolutionized the way that web graphics are created and built an
entirely new market for 3d Animation and motion graphics. Flash Animation started
as a very simple method for creating vector based web animation. The Flash Movie
was little more than a slight advancement of the animated gif. The files were
large, the drawing options limited and the end result clunky. In the early days
of the Internet (5 years ago) this was enough to blow the competition out of
the water. While their have been numerous ways to create motion graphics none
of these methods has combined the impact and usability of Flash. Flash became
the standard for online motion graphics because it was easy to use. Web animators
did not have to understand code or advanced scripting language. You could design
in flash, move things around, restructure the animation and duplicate effects
with ease. None of this was possible before Macromedia Flash.
