Better than wireframes

I believe in handing over something more than a few empty boxes on a piece of paper. Wire frames should be kept hidden in a designers desk. Handing wire frames to a client for me is like giving Guy McKinley a stick man. It's just bad practice. I mocked up this application in just over 2 hours it's a simple demonstration of a visual identity and structure. Handing this to a client to give them an idea of the apps structure is just so much more hard hitting that a few wire frames. Not as fast but much better impact and gives a real talking point about visualization and structure.

Presenting Work to Clients

I've been presenting work to clients for many years now and most people think its just swashing a design into a iphone sized picture is good enough to demonstrate the ability to design for mobile. I provide a large variety of engaging images for my clients including my new favorite of the exploded app to give a new level of detail to my designs and also to engage my clients on a whole new level. The key thing here is progression and pushing the boundaries of delivery

The Devil Is In The Detail

Designing for Mobile devices requires a sever level of understanding about what the eye notices and the brain simply ignores. Creating perfect UI is understanding that the cleaner the experience within the application, the less the brain has to ignore to make sense of the application. Is the simple reason behind the expression " I don't know, I just like it ".

Medal Of Honour: Warfighter 2012

Medal Of Honor : Warfighter

BORN WITH AUTHENTICITY - With respect at the core

I honestly cant wait for this games release with over 500Hrs of gameplay on BF3. I'm in desperate need for change. Here is the fundamental back-story for the game. The main thing that draws me to this game is its absolute passion for authenticity.

Nearly 13 years ago, the Medal of Honor brand was born with authenticity and respect for the soldier at its core - and that commitment remains to this day. It's our goal to put you directly in the boots of the soldier whether it be in World War II or today's war. Every detail from the sound of the weapons to the landscapes of actual locations inspire the complete Medal of Honor experience. For the first time in Medal of Honor, we're consulting closely with not only Tier 1 Operators from the U.S. but also Tier 1 Operators from around the globe including the Polish GROM, the Australian SASR, the German KSK and more. No other gaming brand brings authenticity to life like Medal of Honor. Text from www.medalofhonor.com
