The game was realized for media company Länsi-Suomi and especially for their online publication Raumalainen.fi. The game is about the players of local ice hockey team called Rauman Lukko. The players filled a questionnaire about their daily activities on the way to the evening’s match, and the answers were turned into a quiz game. The game opens a personal view to the life of an ice hockey player and makes the players and audience closer to each other.
The game was realized as a Flash movie/Actionscript hybrid (Compared to a pure Actionscript class) with heavy lean towards code and modularity.
This simple jQuery script will enable you to add images for the individual tags of the WordPress tag cloud (wp_tag_cloud). With the script you can style the tag cloud too without touching the core (or WordPress) functions. An example can be seen there on the left. The image sizes correspond to the font sizes given by the tag cloud function of WordPress.

You might except a grander programme from that title, but this is actually a quite simple and straigthforward project. I needed to have a neat visual effect for a WordPress based website I was renovating and at first used the default options to make a gallery. I had five images in the gallery for testing. Because all of the images didn’t happen fit to the same row three were in the upper row and two in the lower. By accident the images made an inverted staircase pattern of two rows. From that I got and idea of creating a complete staircase of three rows by adding one extra row with one image. The images would be picked randomly from a larger gallery.

A few pieces from the soundtrack of Anni, a Finnish indie feature film. The songs have been written, performed and produced by Simo Salo, and they are presented here as mix demos on my behalf. The tracks have not been mastered.

I needed to create a simple and easy to modify intranet database for certain project, and I now offer the setup as a complete working example. PHP and MySql are probably the most commonly used tools to organize information on the internet. The files have been derived from a couple of tutorials (about MySql database + PHP and .csv export), and I have compiled and commented the package from the ready job to an easily digestable form. The package is needlessly modular but I hope it provides building blocks for something of your own.

Musical contributions for a Finnish Zeitgeist inspired documentary Ajan henki. Not all of the tracks on this reel were used. Besides music created for the occasion sarana live sets were employed for certain scenes.
I also created the Dolby Digital 3.1 mix for the final sound track and post-processed the sound.
Recording, foley effects, mix and sound design for Anni, an indie feature film. The film was directed by Jussi Einola and produced by Joonas Einola.
Besides the film mix I also mixed and mastered the music and created a few original pieces using material from the composer (Simo Salo).
