South Point

Overview
South Point was chosen to be the first Las Vegas casino to get the new Bally iVIEW 12 content. The property already had DM machines and wanted to now give the customers the ability to have virtual horse racing and several other features that are available with the new iVIEW 12 suite. South Point also wanted a new look to their existing content and implementing a more western/cowboy look to it. I worked with the property marketing team to developed a simplistic yet property specific content. I was able to collaborate with their internal teams and take ideas that they had and change them with brighter colors and more vivid artwork.
When I gave back the layout that I had completed for them they were very happy with it. Once we had the content completly built and ready for them they were able to work with it at their property they liked it even more. The interface fits in perfectly with the property branding and marketing. Both South Point and Bally feel that this is great content and are both very happy with what I have done for the interface.

River City

Overview
One of the most cutting edge and advanced content development for Bally Technologies and iVIEW on the SMS (ACSC) platform. This property integrated several advanced features including a meter that increases as the customer plays giving visual stimulation to next club point earned. River City also adding in satellite TV connected through Bally Technologies CoolSign technology giving the customer the ability to watch satellite TV right at machine and offered 5 channels that they could view.
In the development in this new cutting edge content the customer also wanted a very specific type of content shown to their customer and giving the customer a experience with iVIEW that has not been matched yet. Below you can see the example of the welcome show that runs when a player card is inserted into the machine of the customers choice. I developed the show using After Effects and plugins. Created with only an idea and no assets except the property logo.

Sonoran Steel

View website
Overview
Home of the ““Pure Off-Road Prowess Bar None” complete suspension lift kit. Sonoran Steel prides it’s self on knowing Toyota’s and using most original parts as it can for their lift kits and performance parts. The attention to detail and ability to think outside the normal lift kit have given Sonoran Steel a huge name in Toyota 4×4 world.
Sonoran Steel had a website that had so much information on it that it was easy for the customers to become over whelmed and frustrated looking for the products and information that they wanted. I took over doing the site and immediately put it into a familiar but customer e-commerce capable store front that now allowed customers to get the information that they needed but all order products at the same time.

Miccosukee

Overview
Miccosukee needed a way to edit the signage in the poker room and did not want the added stress of having to show several staff members how to edit multiple files and media content to make simple changes. They needed a way that they could instantly change the jackpot information and send message and play information to all the Bally Coolsign screens.
I developed an application that read and writes an XML file that is on a server and is then connected in to become the file that the Bally CoolSign content reads from. Having a standalone application provided a secure point on the server that the users could easily modify the variables and see them change instantly on all the screens. After developing the first one the customer was so happy with the implementation and ease of use that they had me do several more that work in different situations and for different areas.
The light weight, no installation, xml reader/writer makes a custom tool that has saved a lot of man hours and created a real solution for the customer and their needs.
