for alternative ways of connecting with your clients for
Christmas or New Year?
Look no further. E-cards can make the
connection fast and cost-efficient. Besides, e-cards are fun.
E-cards
("electronic cards") can feature anything from short animation gimmicks to animated
cartoons telling a little story.
What
is more, e-cards can talk and play music. I will be happy to develop
an appropriate sound design with your e-card, from simple sound
effects to complex dialogues and a
soundtrack tailored to your
specific requirements.

not convinced? Check out the published samples on this page. Don't
hesitate to contact me for any questions you may have. I
look forward to hearing from you.

This Flash movie was mailed out as an e-card to Asset's clients.
Asset is a
Canadian investment company based in Toronto.
In two language versions, English and French, the movie
starts out with a brief walk through a snow-covered forest.
The camera then zoom up close on the descending snowflakes
and makes out a particular blue-colored snowflake which
looks unlike any other. As it turns out, this snowflake is
actually part of a corporate logo: Asset Engineering.
I have also written the score for the animation, a melodic piece for piano and
cello.
