About the Author

A senior interactive developer with Branded News Worldwide, one of the nation's largest interactive advertising agencies, Jason is a computer animation graduate from The Art Institute of Dallas. He has used Flash, Flex and ActionScript over the past 11 years building interactive/online advertising and advergaming. Clients whose projects I have worked on include names such as Patrón Tequila, GameStop, Hyundai, Fruit of the Loom, National Pork Board, Travelocity, Florida Department of Citrus and Nokia. Outside of work, Jason enjoys creating experiments with Flash, playing his guitars and video games and most of all, spending time with his family. Jason maintains two Flash-related blogs: The FlashCanon (http://flash.fincanon.com) addresses an array of Flash topics, and The FlashCanon Lab (http://lab.fincanon.com) offers a collection of his Flash experiments.
