Shaun of the dead website.


The image above is of the homepage which is really interactive and as you move the cursor around the page, it moves with you to reveal new options. I feel that the limited colour scheme that they have used works really well.

The image below is a still from the intro that is played before entering the site, which gives you a snip it of what the movies about.


I like the simplified graphics that they have used to portray the character of shaun, not too much detail on the face and using quite a limited colour scheme. This is similar to what I was wanting to created for my animation.

web site designs.



These images above are from the 'The Ring' movie website. While it loads hair moves down the page to eventually create a black blank screen. Then it plays the trailer with out you clicking on anything so it makes you jump because it just appears on a black screen and with no warning. I like the use of that and i may include that sort of thing in my animation. After the trailer is then played the home page appears which looks like this:


The home page on this website is very interactive and all the icons move when the cursor is rolled over the image.Sound is also very effective on the site creating a sort of scary atmosphere.

Audi - card board car advert.

This is an awesome advert i love the music that they used for it and the lil guy that creates the cardboard car is brill.My favorite bit is when he's bending the wing mirrors in to shape and then it zooms in on the mirror bit; where you can then see the characters reflection as if he was sat in the drivers seat.lovely stuff.

First attempt at iweb.



This is my first attempt at using iweb and here is a simple layout I designed. But for my actual iweb design I think I'm going to create a splash page before, with some kind of image as the enter hyperlink.

Dead Set - E4

I really like how the E4 logo appears in this ident as it just appears and then zooms in on it slowly. I also think that the colour used is really effective. Maybe this is something to consider when im creating my animation.

BBC 2 horror ident

It has links to different horror movies which are shown as short clips then at the end the BBC 2 logo pops up out of the ground resembling a clip from a zombie movie. It does protray a sense of horror and the limited colour palette helps to emphaises this.

Ray Frenden.


Voorhee's a jolly good fella: I like Frenden's take on the character jason and the nice use of line within his work. Frenden specialises in all things horror and produces t-shirt designs using some of them. The image below was one of his t-shirt designs:
