An exploration for the news sources grid for News:remix. Going live on production tomorrow.

Some stuff from recent redesign of the News:Remix. More to come !

A work-in-progress for something new.

It is so easy to create this in Fireworks. Just basic shapes and outlines.

Here is the mock that I have been playing with for the past few days. This redesign of Showtimes.my is on my own initiatives – just for my own design practice. I didn’t plan to redesign the whole site actually. I just wanted to play around with the elements and information arrangement of the current features on the website.

The owner of Showtimes.my (TS Lim from Flexnode Solutions – whom I know in real life) contacted me for possible implementation of this design. However, for some reasons, it is not going to happen. And oh, I also posted some shots on my Dribbble account along the proces:

Forward Slash is a new initiative by the company for our development team. It is basically a monthly internal hackathon event – aims to give opportunity to everyone in the team to learn something new, try new technology or improve their skills. It is some sort of a levelling-up process in a way, thus the word “forward”. I was the one who proposed the name

For our first Forward Slash session, we had it in Fluentspace – an awesome co-working space in Kelana Jaya Mall. Other than the usual team members (Arzumy, Nguyen, Dion, me and Khailee), we were also joined by some other people including Rafie,  Javier and Syamey. It was a great 12 hours of learning, exploring and building experience. In fact, this is going to be one of hiring process, where the candidate will be asked to join the event in order to get to know them better.

Not much on the stuff that I created that day. More on what I learnt. Finally I have a full day to spent on learning how to develope an iOS app. No one in my team know anything about iOS development. So, everything is from scratch. I played the developer role that day – not designing any single thing – just coding.

At the end of the day, I believe I’ve learnt a lot and I’ve make myself comfortable with the process and XCode environment. My team manage to develop one app – although it is not 100% completed.

Looking forward to the second round on Forward Slash next month.

Some illustrations I created for something somewhere. Still tuning up the bits and the details.
