Falling at the finish line...

This morning before assessment I have one main area to focus on.. the splash page. It has taken me longer to figure out how to make a button than it was to make a form on my website! Ridiculous. However my progress with the overall website is hopefully at the finish stages... I don't know what else I can do but panic.

Website Hell!

I hate dreamweaver. Fact.

Slightly worried how I'll manage to have a completed and fully running website within a week.. but I'm sure I'll be able to get going once I've completed my homepage (hopefully everything will fall into place).

However my aim is to keep the website simple yet looking quite sophisticated!

And not forgetting Flash! Turns out i've pretty much forgotten how to use flash altogether. Another added bonus. But on the bright side we have to keep flash incredibly simple, so literally a 3 second phase in logo and done!

Another update

So earlier this week I realised I had to make my clothing website before christmas.. slight panic but I'm sure I'll manage (somehow).
Been looking at the Glue London website and I really like their work! Last week in our Thursday lecture Zoe mentioned about a 'cloud' room filled with beds where designers go to get inspiration! WOW that sounds like my kind of place!

Trying to get work finished along with finding decent work to take along to the student design fair on Friday. Really looking forward to meeting other students from Grays however slightly gutted we have to be in the same groups, I would have enjoyed some competition between the college students vs uni students! I wonder how that would have turned out....

Back in the day...

So.. I have to build my portfolio to showcase my work from second year, but since we've only done two briefs I'm thinking about including some first year work. BUT most of my first year work is border line average and there are only a few pieces of work which I like. Panic!

I don't want to include work which isn't up to scratch but I also don't want to have an empty portfolio...

I thought about including sketches but none of them would relate to the pieces of work I've done in college.

AHHHHH

Video clip

To all the Family Guy fans!

Watched this episode the other day and absolutely loved how the style of animation changed! I love how it shows the different styles of animation there are and shows how a general family guy animation changes into a disney inspired style.

Can you draw the internet?

Here is my attempt to draw the internet! :)

The idea gradually came together after I started to draw well known icons from the internet then added wires and decorative elements! This was then followed by the legs...

Enjoy!

Previous work

Im starting to get the hang of uploading images! Yay

Here is my website for A-Z children's charity, one of the earliest briefs we were all given.

This is just the home page but is a good example to show the overall design I went with and how I layed out all the information combined with text on the website. The colour scheme is very specific too, relating to the actual logo of the charity I designed at the beginning.

Again I was really pleased with the outcome of my designs and I put alot of effort into completing this brief, definately one of the briefs that I have enjoyed the most!
