I’ll be speaking at motion, October 9-11, 2011 in ABQ. NM.

motion is a mind-bending two day ride – what we refer to as the “TED talks” of our industry. motion speakers are the top creative thinkers and innovators in motion graphics, animation, and vfx. A concept borrowed from TED, each speaker is on stage for 20 minutes giving the talk of their life on subjects they’re passionate about. Talks that revolutionize the industry. Talks that revitalize the creative muse.

Flash on the iPhone revisited

Think iPhone users have forgotten about Flash on their iPhones? Think again.

Early November, Skyfire Labs released an iOS browser that promised to play Flash content, it seemed they had a hit on their hands. But no one imagined how quickly this would happen. According to Skyfire Labs, its $3 Skyfire Web Browser app became the top grossing app in the App Store within five hours – far exceeding the company’s initial projections and forcing it to temporarily stop selling the app to reduce strain on its servers.

My Take: Apple’s iPad and Flash

My Take: Apple’s iPad and Flash

Feb 17

I happened to be in San Jose when Apple announced the new iPad. I was in town for an Adobe video influencers event. The morning of the announcement, I was having breakfast with Rachel Luxemburg – the coordinator for Adobe’s community programs. We were watching the announcement via TWIT.tv as Alex Lindsay and Leo Laporte did a live stream of the event. The next table over from us in the hotel restaurant, were a dozen or so of my colleagues from the video world – also fully engaged with Apple’s announcement.
