The Only Part Anyone Saw

Almost everything I built at Luma was internal. The company site was the exception, and in the spring of 2011 I was rebuilding it, with the relaunch timed to Thor's release in May. The first version had gone up in November 2009 with True Grit, Thor and The Green Hornet on it, so this was the second pass: show off the shots without making people wait on the page.

It was PHP, with content, cron and upload handling, image storage for the stills, and a set of pymel tools nearby since it was a VFX studio and Maya was always around. I worked on it from April 2011 to September 2012.

Most of my time went to the internal tools, Colaby among them. But when people asked what I did in Los Angeles, this was the link I could send them.
