Hey there, I'm a multimedia designer hailing from Toronto, Ontario specializing in web design and motion graphics.

I love what I do and do what I love.

Projects I've worked on

Trebel Network

\\ Website

Still in development, the project required designing layouts and various UI elements (such as icons and navigation buttons) using photoshop and illustrator.
Currently being coded in Dreamweaver, utilizing the latest technology that html5, css3 and javascript offer, to insure proper and smooth interaction between users ( such as uploading and viewing images/videos/music and messaging each other).
A mobile version is in the plans as well, which will again use a series of media queries for the website to be scalable on mobile devices.

Interface 2013 Reel

\\ Motion Graphics

A video reel showcasing the work of 21 graduates from Sheridan's Web Design program. The video had to match artistic direction of the site as close as possible, and originally designed to play on a loop during our grad show at Sapient. After the event I've added music and opening/closing segments to make it a stand-along piece.

Orchid Moon Studio

\\ Website

Utilized Photoshop and illustrator to create initial layouts for the webpage, as well as creating banners and placeholder elements for various products.
In order to develop a fluid website, media queries were put in place to assure the website is properly viewed on virtually every device possible – from desktop computers to a variety of tablets and phones.
The fun part was the redesign of elements and their structure using CSS as the site starts getting smaller. Assuring a pleasant experience for the user at any time was the key, no matter what device they’re on.
Currently only the homepage is functional.

Trident Condo

\\ Website

This project utilized vertical scrolling and JavaScript was used for smooth scrolling. As well as the apartment section where a user can select various floorplans and get back information based on that floorplan without reloading the page every time.

Tough Room Gym

\\ Website

A design for an all-business gym. The layout is meant to be dark and gritty to convey raw and powerful mindset when it comes to bodybuilding.

Software: Photoshop, Illustrator

Roles: Art Direction, Design

Ethereal Lust Video

\\ Kinetic Typography

My second kinetic type experiment. The dark nature of music and dual vocals gave me a lot to work with in terms of color destintions and two patterns of singing. Really enjoyed working on this project, but unfortunatley the band went on a permament hiatus before I could finish the video.

Linkin Park Video

\\ Kinetic Typography

My first full length kinetic typography video. Art direction was predetermined by Linkin Park's official video for that song and I tried to stay within the boundries as much as possible. The most rewarding bit was Mike Shinoda's, when the pace picks up and the word breakdowns become a lot snappier, thus providing a more compelling experience for the viewer.

Legions

\\ Logo, Business Cards

Logo design for a power metal band Legions. Custom font drawn from scratch with castle-like treatment seemed perfectly suitable to bring forth the feel of knighthood and dragon slaying.

Software: Photoshop, Illustrator

Nanochrist CD Cover

\\ Album Art

An altrenative album art I've designed for Nanochrist, a local industrial metal band. I was given full freedom when it cam to art direction, so going with a dystopian, smoggy feel was the natural choice for me.

Software: Photoshop

Roles: Art Direction, Design

Blacked Out Hatred

\\ Logo, Business Cards

Logo design for a thrash metal band Blacked Out Hatred. Jagged edges, a little gore and metalic textures. Satisfaction.
