I want my web page to be designed in a way that conveys the kind of work that I do. My initial thoughts are to show my work and details within a frame, such as a cinema screen or television screen, which ties in with my video work on the course.

I intend to make my web page quite hand-made in style, so therefore i will take into account how to construct any imagery in Photoshop and also what the text will look like.

Here are some samples of my initial designs....



I have come up with the idea of creating buttons within the remote control for the television which the user has to use to navigate through my CV/portfolio. I see the construction of the page forming in Flash as i feel that although my knowledge of it is basic, i think i have more experience with this software than i have with other HTML based/linked programmes.





Although i like the two tone design i think that because of the hand drawn effect on th TV being quite rough it perhaps needs more colours or a setting in order to contextualise it. Perhaps as it is an old 'retro' TV, a similar background such as a living room would help to give the page more of a theme.




The retro wall paper i think immediately gives the television set a context. I am happy with the colours, which aren't too distracting or taking over from the details that will appear within the screen.



I have managed to find a font on the internet which matches the style of the drawn TV set much better than the previous font.
