EDITORIAL INTRO FOR ISSUE 186

“He’s inspired a new generation and is one of the most humble and helpful people you’ll meet”

This month, we’ve been lucky enough to catch up with three of the most inspirational web designers you could wish to meet – especially if you’re a fan of Flash.

To kick off we’ve got an exclusive interview with Eric Jordan, who formed 2Advanced Studios after dropping out of school, and took it from being a personal portfolio to one of the most respected agencies on the net. Aiding him in his bid for world domination was Shane Mielke, who, as creative director for 2Advanced, has inspired a new generation of web designers and is one of the most humble and helpful people you’ll meet. Shane shows you how to transform your Dreamweaver projects into AIR apps.

Last, but by no means least, we catch up with Masayuki Kido, an innovator in the world of 3D, whose Eco Zoo site has bagged numerous awards. Enjoy the issue!
