Welcome to MattGillmore.com
a little about this website...
I built this site to showcase my resumé and portfolio. My online resumé will come in two versions. The display version on the webpage will be more in-depth. The linked version for download will be of the standard two-page variety. My portfolio will present many examples of my web design, animation, art and music. This site will be leaned more towards the professional side. If you like the current design of this site, it -- like most everything else in my life -- is available for sale. Thank you, drive through.
About this template...
I designed this website from scratch in about 15 hours inside a 36 hour time period. I designed the header in Macromedia Flash MX with a 9" x 12" Wacom tablet and pen. I experimented with different ways of animating the plants and the fish and I set them on ueven timelines so the loop doesn't feel quite so static. I looked at a couple photos for reference but mostly drew everything up from imagination, including animating the colorful swaying plants.

Bragging Rights...
I just completed work on a "simulated interface" for a scene in the upcoming major motion picture "Babel" starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchette. They needed the interface for a scene where a border guard is scrolling through mug shots and criminal records in a "national database" at a border crossing station. The production people needed the screen to be interactive and to simulate inputting data and live searches. Their art department provided screenshots of what they wanted the interface to look like and fake data to load. I built it in Flash in three days, three days ahead of deadline. Here's what the Producer, Ann, had to say about my work: "Great work- thanks so much for turning it around so quickly. Art department is very happy- you don't know how many jokers there are out there that don't deliver like you did."

I put www.girlyware.com together for a Vestal Media client. They provided the template and the content. I hot-rodded the Flash header and put it all together. If you would like something similar, please consider my services and email me at mdgillmore@yahoo.com
