The new logo is more modern and compact with clean lines. It’s simple yet it packs a wallop! Plus, the raven takes the symbol of C in Charles.

Project Exam 2: Redesign

My project exam for this term is a redesign of my portfolio, Charles Ravndal.

The redesign will be massive and it entails a new logo as well as a new style (a modernised Art Deco) to name a few. I’m really stoked to start this project!

Now, it’s time for the hard part – report writing!

That’s all for now!

Obligatorisk oppgave 08: The Visual Opener

Charles Ravndal — Thu, 03 Mar 2011 11:33:37 +0000

I am finally done with my vignett/title sequence in a form of visual opener (similar to opening sequences found in video games like Final Fantasy or other Japanese RPGs) for my upcoming book, Seraphic Theory (working title). The end result somehow diverted from the storyboard because I found out it didn’t really work out with the accompanying text.

The visual opener’s purpose is to pique the readers’ interest through a visual stimulation before delving into the full story. It also functions as a teaser by whetting their imagination’s appetite as well as increasing the hype and expectation of my book.

Now, I’m going to start making the interactive website. This is so fun!

That’s all for now.

Obligatorisk oppgave 08: Storyboard and Draft

That’s all for now!

Obligatorisk oppgave 08: The Logo

Charles Ravndal — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 13:53:09 +0000

Here is the Seraphic Theory logo:

The symbol in the word “THEORY” is called an ether circle, which is pivotal in the world of Seraphic Theory. It is linked to etherology, which is the power to manipulate ether (magic) and widely used by Celestians, a race of immortal beings.

Obligatorisk oppgave 08: The Project Starts Now!

+ Sketch of Alexandre Sky

This project is quite exciting and it’s about time that I get my hands again dirty with Flash and After Effects (OMG!). The project is to create an interactive website and a vignett/title sequence. In my case, I’m creating one for my upcoming book, Seraphic Theory.

That’s all for now.

P.S.

You can check the first three chapters of my book here.
