As a web designer, my skill sets integrate coding, interface design, and graphics
creation and manipulation. In addition to my knowledge of HTML (hand-coding,
Dreamweaver), Javascript, CSS, PHP, Flash, and Perl, I also have extensive
experience with Photoshop and Illustrator.
Past projects:
The CDC Group:
I was brought on to design an animation for a holiday greeting e-mail
blast, which I executed in Flash. In order to accommodate various
users' e-mail/web environments, I also wrote/developed plain-text and HTML
greetings in addition to the animated content provided in Flash and
Quicktime formats.
The Chicago Network:
Coded to a spec I received in PDF format, this website demanded a
sophisticated Javascript menu and extensive use of external CSS, and was
done on a very tight deadline.
Tautologic: The web site was designed to coincide
with - and visual complement - the band's first CD release, West Is North, East Is South.
In addition to serving as the primary conduit for news about the band and CD
sales, the web site itself received acclaim from music critics who reviewed
the CD.
Happy Butterfly Foot: In addition to creating logos and other artwork
for the band, I coded the site in HTML and Javascript and implemented a PHP-based
calendar to enable the band leader to quickly and easily update his performance
schedule.
HealthQuiz was an internet start-up founded by the former head of the
anesthesiology department at the University of Chicago Hospital, Dr.
Michael Roizen. I designed and coded the web site, using HTML and
Javascript. The promotional materials contributed to the product's
adoption by several hospitals and clinics throughout Chicago.
EthanSellers.com:
The site is designed to promote my services to a wide audience that
includes business clients and fellow musicians and artists. It is
important to me that my designs are simple and use technologies that are
sufficiently well-established, so that visitors with a wide range of web
browsers could reliably view the site.
