Project 2 - Concept and look and feel

(oh my god, why is it so friggen hard to layout the post!!!!!!!!!?)

My idea for this project is an experimental Flash portfolio website that will be optimised for touch screens. It will use touch gestures as a means for navigation, as well as the traditional 'point and click' navigation for users without touch screens. Multitouch is also a possibility to explore. In the back end of the website I want to have a mySQL database holding all the folio content, which will be retrieved using PHP and then read in by Flash. By building the website dynamically, the site will be much easier to update and be more accessible.

Here are some mockups I made for a possible look and feel:

-loading sequence: the coloured bars randomly expand as the loading progresses














-main menu: the loading bars animate on completion and turn into squares that become buttons.












-the pages option1: when clicked, the buttons move and dock along the bottom. Content can be scrolled by clicking or touching and gradding up/down. A quick flick to the left will bring you to the next page, and a flick to the right will bring you to the previous page.

-the pages option2: the same as above except the content is presented in 'polaroids' which are randomly placed and rotated, and can be moved around by the user.
