Proposal Site Overview

Summary
This website will serve as a showcase for my artworks. The audience will be my fellow peers for now. I would like the site to be entertaining, memorable, and not lose the focus on the content.

Content
The final site hopefully will contain photos from my B&W photography class, my final projects from the 3d animation class, 2d animation class. Drawings and sketches from the past couple of years if I could find them. They will be categorized in different sections with short descriptions and dates.

Interaction
I would like to make it easy to navigate and easy to find the informations needed.

Design
I'm most likely to make the site with a comic style.
