the soul of nature

This was the last flash that I made in this semester.
I have had a good time "upgrading" my Flash making skill.
Again, nature has become the source of my inspiration.
I, basically, used Photoshop to create a "simulacra" of the original image.
The new image would have just back and yellow colors.
The mood of the song has spreaded out the whole movement of all animated objects.
I tried to make my text could go together with the music, as well, I tried to catch the rhythms and smoothness of the song.
Blur effect was used with specific purposes.
Button and some text when appeared would have blur or moving up down effects.
The animated pictures were concentrate on representing the atmosphere.
Typography was created as the target of "pouring" its spirit into the space.
So everything element could support each other to define a unity.
I think it will be a good idea to create more interesting typography effects.

song of nature

This is my a picture of wide and free nature with the smell of countryside.
What I can feel when I let myself drowning in nature beauty, I try to "redraw" that picture in this flash.
Typography goes as falling leaf and changes to letters. I love the move of masking and mood in this job.
The whole project insists the "growth of life".
The mood becomes happier at last.
Basically, green is the main color.
The buttons are used with Glow effects trying to get the viewers intention to click on them.
Though I think it is quite short. I love to make it better and a bit longer when I have free time.

flash for typhography

When I was looking for my font.
I meet mine. Salt Water, as its beautiful name, it has breath and life. I love the way it makes everything "wet and fresh".
I used a lot of animation effects.
Also, I try to make the whole work goes smoothly with the music.
Animated typography are chosen to GO WITH the emotion of the song.
Making describe for specific elements of each letters seems to be the most difficult.
I hope this one will be my another useful practice.

designs for Linkin' Park Rock band

These are designs for Linkin' Park, an American Rock band, in their advertising target. People love Linkin' Park not just because of how well they perform or how good looking they are. They love Linkin' Park because of the way they "suck out blood". Is is a part of Rock? Strong and angry, heavy and hot, but still smooth and emotional. The designs for a Rock band may represent their own "special face". Also, we can read there are some short message sending through each designs.

vector illustrator

At home, in my free time.
One of the things that I like to do is playing my "picture" game.
I will try to do something for myself.
Photoshop, Flash, and Illustrator are the three "leaders" of my life (I would say Corel Draw instead of Illustrator if it was in the previous 6 months ^^).
Anyway, this time is for Miss Illustrator.
And I am trying to practice the lesson that I've read from the online tutorial.
It is about Tracing Vector.
I did spend an amount of time to finish it.
It is not too bad, isn't it? I hope so.
First, it is made based on a picture of myself which was taken by camera.
Second, I made a little change in the hair style.
I used orange for hair and eyes, which is the hot color.
I look more impressive and special in this "new lady".
Vector tracing is not very hard to work with. It was really interesting and fun.

design layout for dating website

My website is about dating.
It is a place for people looking for a friend and start building an "online" relationship with another.
They will have a chance to introduce themselves, their images, hobbies, dreams and so on...
Dark red tone is used with a formal but still friendly look.
I try to make my website simple and easy to use.
All effect like butterfly flying at the first time. I did erase.
So that it would be "clean" but clear.

self portrait

It is a bit scary, isn't it?
I have a green mouth with a scorpion crawling on my hair. They are standing for dangerous, harmful and wicked. Like poison, my half soul can be "unhealthy" for people around.
I have for eyes which are all staring at you like challenging.
A wide forehead with black and thick eyebrows.
I am at the right hand of the image.
There seems to be a lot of white space on the left. The back background is supposed to be evil and the dark.
I just have those idea when thinking of my characteristic as a "trainee designer". I do not want to say I'm cruel and just "too dark" like me in the picture.
I hope this work could, somehow, describe a part of me.
