Aurora PhotoArts Marketing Sites To Be Mosaic Class. First Look At The New Design.
At the 11th hour, just before
the Venus 3 marketing sites were about to be mass produced, becoming the
most numerous of any web site design format that I have, it was decided
that the new sites would be brand new Mosaic
Class marketing and support sites, instead.
Although the new Venus 3 marketing sites were ready to be produced, and
they were excellent, it was decided to go with a newer design which had
advantages over the Venus 3 site, which includes larger picture images
displayed, and more thumbnails for looking at different images. Although
the new site, much like the Venus 3, is a late 3rd Generation Eos MediaArts
web site utilizing JPEG’s, the Mosaic is more compatible with 4th
Generation flash and databasing technologies, and can be upgraded to the
new technologies far more easily. The layout and design is also cleaner
and more intuitive to use, with a refined, slick design. It’s not
nearly as busy. It looks more upscale, and puts more emphasis on the pictures.
I was testing embedded video files with the Venus 3 site design, and they
were not 
compatible
(I was not at all happy about that, with my plans for video on the sites).
The new Mosaic Class site is fully compatible with video files, unlike
the Venus 3. I will be using videos for everything from client testimonials
to tutorials and behind-the-scenes videos; all of the blogs will have
video sections added to them, which will work like my popular Tampa Bay
Film Online Film Festival (and some people were wondering if my investment
into indie filmmaking would pay off. Shooting films and videos will become
a major part of all of my businesses in the next decade. Unlike most other
photographers, I am highly trained and experienced in independent film,
television production, and in videomaking. Also, expect to see me in front
of the camera, a lot, in the near future. Regarding video, did you know,
for example, that I’ll be making a ton of independent films as a
filmmaker, and that the next Dream Nine Studios site, which is due online
in 2012, and which will be a state of the art 4th generation web site
(a new web site class, too, possibly derived from the Diana Class site,
but with the latest technology), will actually use video and music in
the flash graphics of the site? There will be sequences from some of my
films playing in the graphic elements of the site, as well as samples
of my video games, which I will also be making with the company. Cool
stuff!).
Oh, and regarding videos, my clients, which would not be obligated to
do, would have to sign a release before I publish shoot videos, or share
anything from our shoot, online.
The Mosaic Class site, being even more advanced than the Venus 3, has
additional capabilities which exceed the scope of the Venus Class site
design. This is more important for our long term plans; the new Mosaic
Class will age much better, and could last as long as ten years (with
upgrades)! The Venus 3 would have been phased out much sooner than that,
in as little as five years, at the most (Wow...... imagine that. A web
site designed to last for ten years).
Because of the new watermarking and copy protection techniques which were
developed for the latest sites, it is now possible to make the images
as large as we want, without the use of java locks. Showing the images
in a larger format will be much better for marketing photography services.
And, of course, the new site design is perfectly compatible with the Tampa
Photographer Blog and this Tampa Photography Blog. Oh, and there is a
secret, too. I will be launching a THIRD blog this spring, which will
also be a Mosaic Class site interlinked with the other Aurora PhotoArts
Mosaic Class sites. What the blog will be about, as well as the name,
is currently classified, but I can tell you that it has something to do
with Aurora PhotoArts. You can’t wait, and neither can I!
The switch to the new Mosaic Class design is not expected to delay the
schedule of the construction of the Aurora PhotoArts marketing site array
that much, only adding a couple of days to the development cycle at the
beginning.
Since the new Venus 3 sites are designed and ready to go, I’m not
scrapping them. I’m considering using them for the sites of my second
photography marketing company, which will be for higher risk markets.
I might also make the design available for sale to clients, in time. I
may also build and deploy a few for testing purposes.
And, with that, it’s back to work.
