E-Commerence website design

        Back in the days I used to create and experiment with webpage designs. I even went further, to actually develop some websites, mostly for my personal use or to experiment with source codes. It was a very accommodating experience which widened my knowledge in graphic design and nevertheless I could utilize some of my coding skills.

       Few weeks ago I was asked if I would be able to develop and create e-commerence website. At first the task seemed difficult, because I was never dealing with actual e-shop sites before. The biggest concern I had with actual transaction systems and security of the site, however after reading and researching some articles and available options on the internet I thrown myself in.
First I must say I had big freedom regarding design and development process. Only conditions I had were that it must be:
  • simple
  • easy to use
  • Warehouse type – My client was very specific about this point, forasmuch as at start the website should work as local store and then later it should contain thousands of items. Sort of a transformation from local to wide online warehouse.

There is the latest update of the site:

Video Editing, Rotoscoping freelancing

       Last week I was fortunate to work on an advertising video for Designer Parfums Ltd, more precisely video editing and enhancing.  A presentational spot of one perfume brand was given to me and my main task was to remove some old texts sentences and some object artefacts from original footage and replace them with new ones, thus creating up to date marketing shot without the need to produce new ad, which would be very costly.

     First, I had to cut out the parts that had to be changed, than rotoscope out the correspondent pixels and afterwards fill the blank spots. After that procedure I had to prepare new objects, text and animate them so the change should be unrecognisable.

Interior Design Visualisations

       I was asked for help by one of Interior Design student from University of Bedfordshire, Lucia Poliovkova. She was working on her final year project (Old club called Hat Factory renewal) and I was helping her with 3D visualizations and tutoring 3D Studio Max. It was valuable experience for me to collaborate on architecture design projects.

CETL Project

       I was very lucky to have a chance to design the artwork for The Bridges CETL (Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning); one of 74 student development programs that were funded across the UK, where I worked for a few months as a Graphics Designer. It focused on Personal Development Planning (PDP) and employability especially for students.  It was a valuable experience and I learned a lot. The main aim was to develop final visual theme that would fit the agenda of The Bridges CETL.

Work involved:
  • Designing the theme for the key elements (Curriculum, SOAR, Realistic learning, Employability), website assets and posters creation
  • Helping develop final visual theme that fit with agenda
  • Arranging final prints

  • Finished work placed onto walls. The actual wall onset works were done by external company.
