Okay, so I need to make a portfolio. I've decided to use Adobe's Director MX and make it an autorun DVD which will allow me to distribute it with a resume.
My preliminary ideas are as such:
Main screen:
This main area of my portfolio will be sky-themed. It will consist of a background of clouds and the top banner will be a little plane that flies onto the screen from the left to the right and hovers at the right edge. I was thinking of a bi plane, something like this:
The plane would pull a banner which said "Ioana Croitoru: Portfolio". Small puffs of cloud would come together to form letters which will be the headings for my sections as follows:
- 3D Animation - Motion Picture
- 3D Stills - Audio
- Photography - Digital Art
After that, I think I'll try to do something neat with each heading, but I need some suggestions...
Audio:
I was thinking of doing an mp3player/stereo type thing where you can select the tracks usng the buttons on it and view the titles on the display, something like this:
Motion Picutre:
for this I was thinking of doing a film strip where i'd have all the features of the film strip down the sides and my center would be the actual movie.. I havn't quite figured out how I'd swap the movies over or the menu system....I'd appreciate some suggestions. Here's roughly the idea:
Photography:
For this I was thinking of doing a small film where you see a desk and the pictures fall onto it one on top of the other, so you'd see something like this with photos practically raining down:
And the rest:
I'm not sure what to do with Digital Art, 3D Stills and 3D Animation...any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated as I'm at a complete loss. Also if you have any suggetions on how I can improve my design, I can use all the help I can get.
Thanks for listening! I'm sorry if this is in the wrong area, but as I work on it, I'd like to post my progress...like a modlog if you will but for my portfolio
Do tell me if it's in the wrong area and please please please give me some suggestions if you have em, no matter how far fetched they seem!
