My portrait

Class decided to take my picture and animate it.

Good and Bad flash example

Good example (www.marcecko.com)

 I am impressed that Marc is such a design savvy. Whenever I move a mouse around the screen, the page moves along with the direction. Also when I click on one of the menus, the webpage collapses into small bricks and change to a new page.   I definitely recommend this site to people who have a vision problems, because the buttons are made of large and vivid pictures.

Bad example(www.lingscars.com)

I don't understand who designed the site. The animations are nothing notable, because they predominantly used Photoshop to create animations. What I mean is that, the artist choose an image and created a slide show, instead of putting more effort. In another case, one of the banners shows an animated sequence where three stooges are splattered with the paint. Again this is done with Photoshop in addition to Microsoft paint.

Multimedia Design statement.

Hello, everyone, I was not active on my blog for a long time. Well sorry about that. I was busy doing my other works. Anyways, this is my obejective for a new class, Multimedia Design. Throughout this course, I would like to learn various aspects of Macromedia Flash and integrate my knowledge to Web design. I have taken a Flash class before, but I didn't learn much. The problem was that the previous course had no detailed instruction and it made me hard to follow. By working with Angela again, I would like to learn how to properly create animation and improve my skills to land a job in near future.

Images that I chose as sources

These are not all images that I am posting here. There are more of them. I have chosen California Condor as a research subject because of it is very interesting specie. I think I have seen them through various cartoons. They always flew in circular motion on top of someone's head. What is really scary about this creature is that it acts like a birdie version of Hyena; I mean they like to eat decaying animals.

These are the roughs for final

These are images of roughs that I was planning to make it into actual design. I haven't drawn anything on my sketchbook. I feel like I myself have rushed out because I was not sure what to do.

Some gray research website images.

Here are pictures that I post. Please enjoy.

Color Research Website

I have recently updated my website because I was frustrated with officelive.com being restrictive on user customization. Therefore I switched to new webhosting service and here is the address for my new homepage.
