Identity Series 2

Identity Series 1

Finally clicking

After doing all the buttons I started to figure out ways in which I could make them work, but I got stuck several times and when I was about to give it up, Jason taught me how to make the buttons work! Now I just need to add the images of the inside of the places, so it's gonna be possible to have an idea on how the website is going to work and look like. Unfortunately, the time given to do the whole thing is too short and the I lack ability when using flash as I spend a lot of time to do one simple thing. However, as practice leads to perfection I intend to keep working with flash for the rest of my life and soon this project will be finished and ready to be hosted @ the Interenet! Above it is possible to see the most recent advance of my portfolio website! Thanks Jason for sharing your flash experience with me and thanks to all the others for making this course very pleasant to me! See ya!

Adding Buttons

As soon as I finished painting some of the sections I tried to make the buttons work when running the mouse over each element, it took some time, but it finally worked! It is really good when you spend some time trying to do something in flash and it ends up working, but when it doesn't work I get very angry, but little by little I'm adding the buttons and I just need to know how to make them work! I think I will be able to do the basic structure until the end of the course, but the whole website it's gonna be very difficult to finish as I'm thinking about creating little stories in each place of the city when the person clicks and get into them! Above you can see the buttons working!

Enhancing

Until now I have done a lot in terms of enhancements, but I have no idea on how I'm gonna add the buttons, I'm gonna need some guidance from Jason to do this! But I have already started painting each element separetely and it's getting better more and more! Above it is possible to see what is happening to each section of the image!

The Beginning

Well, now I have already started painting the image to bring some life to it. At first I was thinking of painting the whole city, including the buildings and houses and then point out each one by making it bolder or highlighting it, but as Jason suggested that it would more interesting to enjoy the artistic aspect of the traces contained by the handdrawn stuff of buildings and houses I think I will do this way: keep the traces on buldings and houses as weel as other stuffs in the city and when the viewer runs the mouse over it the colour comes! Visually it is going to be better like this!

The Practice

After trying many possibilities drawing a town I got to a good result as I am horrible to draw perspectives! I spent one day and a half to finally have the basis of my website that you can see above! Nevertheless, it is gonna be easier to work on it!
