Michael G. Connor – Senior Flash Developer

I am a senior Flash developer based out of Brooklyn, NY.  I am currently the Senior Flash Developer at VindicoGroup.  I was responsible for developing their sophisticated adware product – Xumo.  Xumo is a VPAID and VAST compliant ad display and  user tracking product – built to be played back from and controlled by 3rd party media players such as Hulu.  Xumo parses a VAST feed and then runs ads with variety of  views and a capabilities by way of plug-ins that are built to be screwed into Xumo.

I’ve been devloping projects in Flash  since 2005, but this last year I’ve been immersed in the techniques of rigorous software development.

I’ve built small games that run in banners, forms, quizes and a lot of media players: juke boxes, slide shows, and video players with all sorts of features. I’ve done projects of all sizes. On my own and in groups. Below are some of the larger RIAs I’ve built.
