So... i seem to be abusing my blog and picking it up and putting it down as it pleases me and that isnt going to get me a good grade... is it now? please give me a first? lol
So now ive spoken to my blog... lets get down to the nitty gritty...
i tried the html stuff it made me ill like i kid you not it actually sent me to hospital i was that stressed i forgot to take my meds and had to go to hospital to get checked up on :( not fun...
so as ive tried the html side... i dont fancy anymore added stress on top of missing a few weeks of my main project aswell as my animation and visual effects project which i also dont know how to keyframe animate in 3D programmes... 3rd year is HARD
so... i started to look at website builders... specifically html based... website builders and my photography friend gave me a link that was mearly based for showing of images... i wanted to see if i could tweak settings and put a video slider in aswell... but didnt really go so well very GOOD editing website... but its a payed one... which i didnt like...
http://4ormat.com/
As you can see from browsing around that website its html5 and it works on iphones and ipads... aswell as towers and other devices... so this sort of swayed me... but i didnt like the fact you have to pay monthly... the whole idea of this is to get myself a job to give myself money... not loose money before it even begins...
I THEN found wix.com i actually had a look at wix.com back when it was early first year days...
so i dabbled with this and found it to work quite well... so ill give you a screen grab of something i started to create within the website...
So as you can see i went for a professional approach... with easy accessibility and worked around the idea of using drop down menus with NO SCROLLBARS i really hate them and i have no idea why... i just think they look unprofessional for a showreel website...
as you can see i put widgets in for Twitter, Vimeo and linkedIn and put a basic ANTWONK | MEDIA in the top left corner and on the pictures on the top right... just so i keep copy right of my images... as i dont know how to set them so you cant right click and save....
I also went into the settings and changed the advance settings few a little bit of coding so it would fit all screens... to the best resolution...
I even had a clickable link so where you see Anthony Turner - Cinematographer at the bottom you can Click on to send me a message... that would then come direct to my email address.
I also wanted to show more to me than just zombies... i wanted to show some VFX shots off or atleast a place for them to go...
