Photo Album

Since I arrived at Melbourne, I’ve been doing my experimental works.
Today, I’m going to reveal one of the results at last.

It’s a photo album by Flash.

Although, fotologue.jp’s interface is absolutely superb, it’s bit too much for me. In terms of communication on the web, such as posting comments, I believe Flash is not an appropriate choice yet for several reasons. At this article, I won’t argue each rolls of html and Flash at all but anyway I wanted only an album.

What’s more, not only did I need this kind of programme but also building this kind of application itself was a good challenge as well. For hunting a job in Japan, I should exhibit my captivating performance (yeah, it’s quite serious). Also in Australia, I might be regarded as a photographer rather than a designer. So this should be a good opportunity to distinguish myself as a web designer.

Actually, this kind of programme is quite common but it’s worth perusing to express my style. This time I aimed to convey a sophisticated sense of luxury and focused on pauses between one motions to others. Even though I’ve compromised a little, I feel, to great extent, I achieved my purpose.

At this stage, it’s only a flame (The photos are also temporary works. Maybe some of them are disclosed now though, I’ll organise the photos later). The next phase is connection. I intend to connect flickr and load my photos. Probably I might be able to leave a communication roll to them.

In these days, I even don’t go out. Just type, drag, and click. I found a new English word “mouse potato” which originally comes from “couch potato” and means a a person who always uses computers. Yes, I’m an absolute mouse potato. Ah, on the spur of the moment the word “screen sucking” has come up. My real personality is something like these.

Monologue, Flash
