The Adobe Flash Platform User Group of Atlanta April 2007 Meeting Kenny Bunch presents Time Shifting Entertainment About This Meeting: The age of one-way media distribution and consumption is over. From the rise of the internet to DVRs, on-demand television to video iPods, today's consumers have the technology to engage with media whenever, and wherever they choose. Media companies, accustomed to the linear distribution model of television and radio, are now faced with the daunting task of adapting their content and business plans to reach tech-savvy consumers. Or risk being left behind. Kenny Bunch has consulted with, and developed bleeding-edge Flash video applications for a number of these media companies, including CNN, CBS, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim and Super Deluxe. He will provide a "behind the scenes" look into the development of these video apps, as well as provide an analysis of historical trends in media consumption. Who Should Attend:
About Our Presenter: Kenny Bunch's passion for programming began at age 8 on an Adam computer. By creating his own choose-your-own-adventure games, he realized early on that he could use the computer as a tool to make his dreams a reality. From that point forward, his mindset became a motivation to create things that would make people's lives better. The first real world opportunity he was given to achieve this goal was at CNN. Serving as the lead Flash developer, he began working on easing the ways the world consumes information, communicates, and entertains itself. Of course, with every quest, there are many markers before the finish. Moving past CNN, he has held positions as lead Flash application developer at Cartoon Network/Adult Swim and as Software Architect at both Bellsouth and Gametap. In an effort to further expand his vision and experience, Kenny formed Dreamsocket. Alongside the work with Turner, Dreamsocket provided an outlet to work with clients like CBS, Rolling Stone, Nascar, Motorola, IBM, ING, and a host of others. Each of these positions, projects, and experiences have been one more step in the quest. Whether it's a smile on a child's face from owning digital cards from Cartoon or connecting long distance friends with communication applications, he is moving forward. However, his goal has not been reached, and each day Kenny strives to do something new in order to give back to world that has given him so much.
