The way I work
It might be a good idea to start by analyzing the website title..."Dreamway" is a made up word that tries to describe the intention behind the existence of this website. To present visually stunning creations which push the limits of imagination. And that state of mind defines how I work...
- The users
Since the beginning, I was determined in the creation of immersive multimedia that I liked to see as experiences that prompt interaction by involving the user in an intuitive, highly sensory way. When I plan out my projects, I try to relate to the average user and want to create products that are both user-friendly and visually stunning. I am sensitive to the user's needs, objectives and preferences. My creations should offer them new choices for solving complex tasks. And I'm always looking for new ways to expand the possibilities...
- The one man studio
I am a firm believer of the concept of independent multimedia production. I actually believe that a one man studio could literally do it all. And I, as well as many others, have proven that is possible to create great stuff on your own, using only minimal resources. After so many years, I still do most of the production work myself. I desire it to be so. Of course, I do find myself working with larger groups of people regularly, for example when developing for a commercial product with strict deadlines and assigned roles. But even then I try to comprehend as much of the work being done as possible, so I can use the knowledge for a future project I will have more control.
- The Internet
My career wouldn't exist without the Internet. If I had to do all the leg work necessary to even set it up in the real world I would have probably just quit :) All these years, I have been able to do work for people from long distance and sell my creations to people all over the world thanks to the Net. With the latest technological developments, the era of information is expanding to new dimensions that can revolutionize the way we use computers. The possibility for users to communicate not only through chat rooms but also through the creative use of sounds and visuals, poses new challenges to visual designers like us. I would be delighted to be one of the first to meet these new challenges.
Above all, I like my work and get pleasure doing it. That is the definitive factor IMO for developing a quality product.
