M6 Home Page and Navigation System, Final Project (Part1)


For this module we created a website to showcase what we've learned and to create the site by using some of the design principals we learned.

For my webpage created on Wix.com I decided to use 4 categories:  Home, Digital design course, scenic art(as artist) and Art Direction(managing several artists)

My home page and menu bar I wanted to add a little zing. Theres an option to animate images, so I made my portrait "fly" in. Also the menu bar flies in as well.

The menu bar I wanted it to be readable (unlike what Ive seen in most sites) so I changed the coloring. for hovering and clicking so the the words pop.

I wanted to do slideshow type presentation in which I did in my Art Direction page.

M5 Avatar Final part 2


I added a background. Its actually a photo I took when we visited Orlando last year of Avatarland at Disney Orlando Animal Kingdom. I played around with the blur gallery function and used iris blur. I also duplicated the layer then used vivid light as the blending option. It really gave it a otherworld feel. There were some toursits in the background. I used the clone tool to take them out.
I also tweaked his nose a bit and brightened up the eyes. The hair is a bit frazzily but I like it, gave it some comicbook pop





Heres the photo







I really like the whole Avatar theme actually. Really looking forward to the movies. In fact I also created some figure stands last year  for some characters we bought there. Sorry Im a dork. haha.
