Projects
I take pride in the fact that all of the sites I have written or maintained are all edited by hand.
No layout or coding aids (Frontpage, Dreamweaver, or the dreaded
SiteBuilder) were used and no code was hurt in the making of these websites.
TCNJ Asian American Assoc. - tcnjaaa.org
This site is a complete redesign of the old TCNJ AAA site - I started from scratch on all aspects of the site.
This project was developed during most of the summer of 2007, and completed in time for the new school year.
The templating, backend, and DB interaction is done in PHP and the rest of the site is done in HTML, CSS, and some Javascript (see the
Leaders page).
All the Events, Minutes, Leaders, and News are kept in a MySQL DB.
The site went live on Aug. 16th 2007, and is currently a work in progress.
This page was a good experience in overnight web-design.
This project was completed within 48 hours of when it was brought to my attention, in order to be ready for an upcoming show.
The templating is done in PHP and the rest of the site is just straight HTML and CSS - nothing flashy.
Worked with
RJ3Labs on the design and content of the site.
This page was comissioned by the
TCNJ chapter of MENC (Music Educators National Conference), June 2006.
They were looking to redesign
their old site, including adding new features and cleaning a few things up.
The site design was completed in early August, and the launch date was September 12th, 2006.
I'm currently the active webmaster on this project, and am responsible for all maintinence and design modifications.
Personal Website for Holly W. - hollydphoto.com
This is a site for my Aunt as an e-front to sell pictures she owns the rights to and as a personal web presence.
It will be my first website writing code for a database backend (MySQL in this case).
Plans are still being drawn up and objectives being organized.
Expect this site sometime this year.
IHS Child Slave Labor News - ihscslnews.org
This website was created Oct/November 2005 as the successor to the old website at
geocities.com/cslnews/.
I acted as the main webmaster and designer for the 2005-2006 scholastic year, and am in the process of handing off the webmaster duties to the next Honors II class.
After that, I will continue to offer support and improvements on the existing site.
This site was coded entirely from scratch, by hand.
It's meant to be simple and low-bandwidth, as an information site accessible to all members.
It was my first website to use PHP, and was more of an experiment than anything.
The PHP in this site doesn't go beyond the template system, really.
IHS Model United Nations - ihsmun.org
This site was not coded by me, but is instead one that I maintained (along with
ftfuchs).
It has been running since May 2005 as a homepage and collaboration site for the Immaculata High School Model United Nations Team.
Myself and ftfuchs are currently discussing the future of this site, whether or not to use a CMS or hand-code, etc.
The site previously ran
Drupal, but we have found it to be less flexable than we were origionally intending for.
It currently is static HTML.
Recently it has fallen into disrepair and is looking for a new webmaster.
The Food Bank Network of Somerset County - somersetfoodbank.org
The codebase for this site is a modified version of that written for the IHS Trumpets site.
The major element is the template system which is implemented in an almost identical way.
It's my first fixed-width site, and also was a (small) step up on the design scale from the IHS Trumpets site.
Other Projects I Support
Did various updates and backend changes.
Modified stock code to fit the specific needs of the owner.
Assised with the coding of the newly designed site.
I currently maintain this site along with
ftfuchs.
Provided the PHP template system and continued maintinence support.
This site was maintained by RLO.
The new website of the Barbershop chorus my father sings in (and sometimes myself).
I help with the website as well as take pictures, video, and other various tasks for the group.
Previous Projects
"We Mastered English Class!" - Eng4H Final Project
This video was made for Mrs. Mahevich's English 4 Honors class as the senior Final Project for myself and Christopher Fajardo.
The music was written and recorded over the span of about 4 days in early May.
The video was shot (with the aid of Stephanie Pypniowski) over the course of 2 days in the following week.
The entire video took 1 day to edit and 2 minor days of tweaking.
It debuted Period 5, May 17th, 2006 for our presentation to the class.
The audio basetrack was arranged in Sony Acid Pro, and the project was recorded and mixed in Adobe Audition.
The video was done entirely in Adobe Premiere Pro, with VirtualDub doing transcodes.
Tip: If the video does not work correctly on your computer, try installing
ffdshow.
If that doesn't work, try
VLC.
Or you could just click the YouTube link on the left.
"Who is Francis Pastorelle?"
This video was commissioned by Francis Pastorelle for submission to Brown University.
Francis worked with me on the editing of this video over a span of about 2-3 weeks.
It was recently completed and is ~15 minutes in length.
Think Different - Ed Webber
This video was prepared out of sheer boredom.
It took about a half an hour of editing time to complete.
The video was done entirely in Adobe Premiere, and contains very little actual editing.
A low-resolution copy is available here for download in MPEG-1 form.
How To Drive a Manual Transmission Automobile
This video was prepared for Mr. Januzzi's Public Speaking class.
It was commissioned by Borse in late September and was shown early October.
It took about a week of on and off work to complete.
This video was done entirely in Adobe Premiere, and does not contain all that much actual editing.
A low-resolution copy is available here for download in MPEG-1 form.
Continuity Project
This project was made for a project for Mrs. Johnson's Calculus class.
It was commissioned by RLO and Gasko late in September, and took two days of regular editing to complete.
It was shown a week later in said class.
This video was done entirely in Adobe Premiere, and involves a decent amount of actual editing.
A low-resolution copy is available here for download in MPEG-1 form.
Twice On This Island
Twice On This Island (TOTI) was made as a parody of Immaculata High School's 2005 production of Once On This Island.
It was concieved and written by Mike Leonard, stars the stage crew of Once on This Island, and filmed over a span of two days of the last two performances.
Later it was edited into musical numbers and released as a separate DVD and also on the Once on This Island produced through IHS.
I was in charge of cinematography for this project, and spent alittle less than a month mastering it for release afterwards.
The Wizard of Oz - Wizard Video
This project was made because an effect for displaying the Wizard in IHS's 2004 production of The Wizard Of Oz was needed.
I took the job about a month or so before the first performance, and in that time I edited the video including effects and mastering (mostly with Adobe After Effects).
I also helped with the design of the digital projection system used in multiple sections of the performance.
