This site was re-created from the ground up, for a client working in the entertainment industry in Nepal: DMI Nepal. DMI was looking for a re-vamp of its old site, and wanted something that said a lot more about its growing business and current stand within the industry. Using the company’s iconic red, as a base color for which the site was worked around, the client and I worked tirelessly to get the end product. As a result, the company was able to successfully bring its rejuvenated Self into the new year of 2010 – marking the next stage of its much-deserved, fruitful business. Many blessings, and good tidings, to you in your future years!

It covers wisdom on areas such as web & design, animation, spirituality & metaphysics, blogging & social media, and productivity & time management. Lessons and experiences on personal aspects I wish to share with others.

I wanted to test my skills out in Wordpress/Thesis coding, so I set out to make something different from my main site’s theme. I wanted something simple and legible, which is why I chose a darker theme with more accentuated colors for highlighted words and links. I believe I achieved something worthy, do you?

This was made with Wordpress and Thesis

The Tongans set out to destroy the Nanumeans, over the death of a fallen prince but, even their strongest weapon, a giant warrior by the name of Tulaapoupou, was no match for the like of Nanumea’s protector, Lapi.

Mission Statement: Supported solely by volunteers, The Op Stop is a usually four-wheeled vehicle that infiltrates Melbourne’s inner-city markets to sell pre-loved clothing at ridiculously low prices, all to raise massive amounts of funds and awareness for local, lesser-known charities. That’s right, we are gloriously naive and we love it.

My task was to convert this provided design into a fully-functional website.

Synopsis

Part of my ongoing Tales from Nanumea series, this project was made for my Minor Project at the Centre for Animation & Interactive Media (AIM). It is loosely based on a true story passed down to me from my mother. I kept certain details out to keep things somewhat “universal,” and exaggerated quite a few other things to make the story more dramatic. If you are Tuvaluan, or Nanumean, then you will probably recognize the exaggerated bits.

timeframe: 5 weeks
designed by: George Samuels
software: Adobe Flash CS4 and After Effects.

The goal of this project, in collaboration with Media Architects, was to give eNutrition’s website a complete design makeover, which included recreating their logo and upgrading their web presence to Web 2.0 standards.

The project consisted of 24 people, with a timeframe of 5 weeks. As appointed Engine Lead, my task was to coordinate, schedule, and assist a group of six others. The unbeknown challenge was to learn the technology within five weeks, a feat performed exceptionally well by the team. We all learned, adapted and endured marvelously.

Software Used: Adobe Photoshop & Autodesk 3ds Max
