Projects

When I'm not at work, I'm usually keeping myself busy with various projects and hobbies. I'm a creative person by nature but I've also got a short attention span. I often jump around working on different projects day to day. Some projects I shelve for months at a time. Anyway, this page is a list of various projects I'm either activily working on or have shelved for working on later.

This page is still under some development. I plan to expand it more within the next couple weeks. - June 9, 2008

Web Development/Design

PaperDemon.com

PaperDemon.com is an online art and writing community that started out as just as a place for my friends and I to post our artwork and has now grown into an active community of a few thousand members. Most of my free time is spent maintianing and developing PaperDemon.

Currently, I am working on rebuilding much of my PHP code to make it easier to customize it and port it over to my other web dev projects. I'm also working on simplifying the horrid html structure to make it easier to apply CSS and make the site feel less dense with content.

Shrunkenheadman.com

The SHM is the San Jose State Animation/Illustration club. I admin their website and have used some of my PHP software there to allow their club officers to easily update the site without knowledge of HTML, PHP or any of that techie stuff. I'm working on my code base for PD so I can apply it for the SHM site.

Family site

I have big plans to create a family website that will be sort of like a social networking and photo sharing website closed to invited members only. You know how when you go to a family event and there are plenty of people there taking pictures but no one ever sends them to you? Or how you have family that lives far away and you keep bugging them for photos? Well, this site is intended to solve those problems and make it easier for my family to share their photos. Even those who aren't technically inclined. I intend to make use of the Picasa API to make uploading a whole bunch of files as easy as a few clicks. I also want to itegrate it with Open Social so that family members that are on other social networking sites such as face book, friendster, etc can have their profiles display their latest stuff from their other social networking profiles.

Music

I enjoy playing the piano and the majority of what I play is video game music (big surprise there!). I'm a remixer on OC Remix. Visit my Music page to download my piano arrangements.

PaperDemonMedia Productions

A collection of animation projects that I work on sporadically with my friends.

Surviving Together

Surviving Together is a Dragon Ball Z Vegeta/Bulma fanfic written by LavenderGoddessV. I decided to adapt it into an animated series but progress on it has been slow. It's been a project that I've worked on, left, and come back to many times.

Zarbon's Masterpiece Theater

This is a series of flash animations parodying the popular anime show Dragon Ball Z. Think of it as a talk show with lazy animation (similar to Space Ghost) but very funny and silly. We only have a couple episodes left to finish up the series and we'll be moving onto our new Anime Spoof Show.

Untitled Anime Spoof Show

After we finished Zarbon's Masterpiece Theater, my friends and I decided to start up a new show that went above and beyond ZMT in quality, effort, and entertainment. The first episode is still in development but I'll be posting updates on the PaperDemonMedia website as they become available.
