Photographer's Portfolio Working closely to the photographers' brief, javascript was employed to produce a single, main page that incorporates thumbnails, a single changing full scale image, and accompanying captions. |

Youth Chamber Orchestra A Flash movie was used to create the introduction, while navigation was provided by musical notation, skewed slightly for a more vibrant, youthful look. Musical scores were heavily distorted to provide luxuriant watermark backgrounds to simultaneously appeal to both audiences: the formal, and the funky. |

Travel Writing? Quirky travel writing presented using a plethora of Flash techniques, adopted both to complement the offbeat nature of the site and to encourage the reader to work through all thirteen links. Taking a passport as the basis for the design, visa stamps were adopted for navigation buttons and colours kept to UK passport burgundy. The large file size generated by the variety of Flash animations was somewhat compensated for by moving the preloading scene to run after the text-heavy introduction, thus exploiting the delay occurred by "reading time" to the full. |

Countryside Ranger Service Working to a brief to produce a clean, simple, "non-jazzy" site, plain backgrounds and straightforward navigation was essential to appeal to as wide a customer base as possible, and assure the client that the site would be easy to understand and clearly navigable by all age ranges and degrees of web familiarity. Subtly themed with lush greens to correspond to the environmental content, the information provided was aimed at encouraging visits to the areas and deepening the understanding of the local parkland and environmental sites. |
