One morning, a few neurons in my brain misfired and caused me to wonder, “What would happen if I deleted all my friends from Facebook?” The response soon blossomed and a goofy little experiment ended up becoming something way bigger than I ever expected. Now it even has its own documentary! See it all here.
I Deleted All My Facebook Friends
New Image Cosmetic: 20-Second Ad Spots
While consulting with their clients, New Image Cosmetic found that a lot of people aged 40 to 60 were feeling young, alive, and energetic — until they looked in the mirror or overheard comments from their co-workers. These spots were created to address those concerns and offer a real solution.

The First Annual XDude Christmas Card
Every year, I receive lovely Christmas cards from clients and colleagues.
Every year, I think about sending one back.
This year, I finally did it! Hooray!

Santas Anonymous 2011 Call to Action
This year, instead of donating toys, I donated a video asking people to donate toys. 
Apparently they received twice as many toys this year than they usually do, but I’m definitely not taking credit for that.
This video was displayed on indoor digital signage where the average spot is 10-15 seconds.
Movember Campaign Wrap-Up
One sample video (from a series of many) for WMC’s Movember campaign.
This video was displayed on indoor digital signage where the average spot is 10-15 seconds.
WMC Digital Media: Launch Video
This presentation was created to promote a local advertising company at its opening gala/launch event.
Yeah, it’s a bit long. This is actually the shorter version!

Million Air: 2011 Harley Giveaway
Hooray, my first-ever paying After Effects gig!
After working within the confines of Flash’s abilities for 12 years, it was exciting to finally have a third dimension to play with.
This video was created to showcase a sweet, sweet custom paint job for Million Air’s yearly Harley-Davidson giveaway.
Break or Bounce
On a warm and sunny Canada Day, I was enjoying a nice cold beer in the back yard with friends and family, discussing phrases that would make great domain names. My sister’s friend Billy came up with the name “break or bounce,” and 5 minutes later, the domain was ours. We didn’t exactly know what we were going to do with it, but we knew it’d be fun!
The first thing to go was an ergonomic keyboard I hated with a passion. Though I’d replaced it years ago, I didn’t throw it away because I felt it deserved a spectacular death. I’m actually a little regretful that Ryan got to smash it with the breaker bar instead of me, but he’s filled the role of level-7 smash artist spectacularly well!
