treebutton


this is a button, made in flash. i got the idea for it, when i learned how buttons in flash actually work, and that you can combine them with animations aswell. it's rather old, but i like it and wanted to upload it here, i don't know yet if i'm gonna use it for something.
it has a mouseover-effect and loops after some clicking, go ahead and try!

packshots


packshots are photographs of products, which should present the product in a nice way. productphotography you could say, for advertisement and posters and stuff. that's what we should do! very open assignment, so you can be very creative. here's only one from me, but i already have a whole bunch of ideas what else to do for that topic.

dialogue 1.0


this s a movie i made for an assignment, in which we should animate an given dialogue from a movie, also using the spoken words in form of typography. this is not the final version, but it is nearly finished.

my computer problem also is nearly finished, i've already ordered a new graphics card via ebay, and now i can't await it's arrival. my posting rate is going to increase rapidly as soon as it's here.

for my Corporate Identity


hello.
this is a logo i have created for myself. i came up with the idea because of a telling from goethe, called "reineke fuchs", about a very clever fox called like me! very obvious though if you know this telling, but also if you don't know it, a fox indicates a lot of positive qualities. a fox is clever, charming, smart and lovely.
relating to my function as a designer these are all the attributes you would hope to find, and i think that animal matches me quite nice ;)
this could aswell be the logo for a prospective design company, perhaps "fox design". and a corporate identity, that is based on the previously named qualities of a fox would be more than desirable. wouldn't it?

by the way, the computer problem i mentioned in the previous post is still not soluted. i am using my housemates machine once again. it looks like i'll have to get a new video card built in or must do it myself :(

my computer produces ART - all by ITSELF




my usually so reliable fujitsu&siemens laptop has newly discovered his affection for producing art - without me having asked for it. today in class, i wanted to boot it as usual, and then these strange things you can see above occured, even before the operating system was started. they change colours sometimes and flicker around. really odd.
i don't know what to do now, all my study's data is on this stupid machine, and my photos, and documents, and EVERYTHING. my whole damn life is on that thing!(ok, from time to time i make backups on an external drive, but the most recent data is only on the laptop's hdd)
my housemate was so nice to let me write this post on his computer.
i already plugged an external monitor into my video card's output, but then it aswell displays these odd stripes and patterns, and starts flickering and stuff. that sucks.
it probably is a problem with the graphics card. i guess i'll have to send it in to be repaired, which is surely gonna take its time and price, because the computer is about half a year out of the warranty. ouch. this sucks even more. stupid piece of crap.
so, don't forget: NEVER TRUST THE MACHINES!

some kind of storyboard



in the video and interactive media lesson on the 14th september we were given a little story, which we should plan the shots for to film the scene properly. i made an animated storyboard with my wacom and flash.
