Feedback for my website

What's good about it?
What can be improved?

Sophie:
I think that the simiplicty of your website is really good and effective, it also suits the film that you picked. I like the way that you have done the menu with the gun and the cast page looks really good. I also like all the bits that you added to the homepage that add more effect such as the way the images brighten as you scroll over them, the only way I think you could inporve it is possibly doing the same with the centre image. Overall a really good website.

Louis: It's all shit (Constructive Crititism)

 Ashley: I think the website is pretty good. Everything looks well constucted and works properly.

Website

Today, we saw what everyone did for their websites. I thought everyones looked really good and it was obvious that people had put alot of effort into them. For some reason, I can't get my video to play on any other computer than the one that all of my files are on. I have tried to put my folder onto a disc and a memory stick but still no luck. I got some good feed back from my site which I was happy with. Some how I am going to try and find a way to get the video to play with help from Julian so that my website can pass. I'm quite happy with the outcome in the end from my site, I would like to change a few things like the backgrounds on the pages at some point but for now I am going to leave it how it is.

My Website

Today I have been working on my website. I managed to get my video and galley page working today and did some alterations the story page. I imported the SALT movie trailor to my video page and added a firey background to make the page more interesting. I also added a scrolling picture gallery to my website with some help from Matt Bush who was doing a tutorial. The website is nearly complete but I will spend the next lesson on adding a link to Facebook and Twitter as well as making some small changes to improve the website.

Website ScreenShots - Constructive Criticism Please



Flash Site

Today I worked on the "Cast and Filmmakers" page on my website. The characters names were listed down 2 coloums on the left and right side of the page with the image in the centre. When the mouse hoveres over the names the image would fade in slowely in the centre. Now that I have that page working, I am going to concentrate on getting the gallery page to work. I want to include a scrolling picture gallery into my website which I will work on next week.

Website for Jules

I have been working on Flash or last week or so and managed to get the basic structure of my website working. I have alsop added an after effects composition for thr title 'Salt'. This composition is a light ray will be continuously going from the left to right. I have also added some effects to the images. The images I used were fairly dull and I wanted them to get brighter if the mouse hovered over them so I did that and think it looks a lot better. Next time I'm on Flash I want to see if I can get a scrolling Picture Gallery working. I think I am going to look at some tutorials and find the easiest way to do it. To conclude, I think the website is going fairly well but I'm finding it tough and slow going on Flash. I find that If I get a problem then it holds me back alot. Surprisinly, I am starting to remember and pick up things on Flash which is helping me find a problem a lot quicker than I used to. :)
