some good ideas wither under bad execution
—
in DesignFrom a recent thread on the Philippine Web Designers group on Facebook, a site was brought to my attention: http://kristn.com/ I haven’t really browsed through the entire site yet. Upon landing on the page though, I had no idea what it was. All I saw was this sunshine of images I didn’t understand and promptly went…

Nintendo needs to up its UX game
—
in DesignI recently bought a Nintendo 3DS XL (add my friend-code if you have one! 0232-7880-2450) — primarily because I wanted to play Pokemon (yes) but also because I’m tired of the ‘Western’ games of the iPad. I mean, they’re fun and addicting, but you don’t always get a cute story like that of Okamiden (Chibiterasu IS…

Designer who can code or programmer who can design?
—
in DesignSome articles like “We don’t hire designers who can’t code” still make me realize how things have changed or wonder if there’s some kind of generation thing I can’t catch. I’ve always thought there were a lot of designers who can code. Have those people I grew up with just went on to pursue other…

in DesignKeith Robinsons reframes UX: In essence, if you’re building a product for use, everyone involved is a UX person.

What you don’t want is a “specialist” that defines their work by the deliverables…

When August ends
—
in DesignAugust started with a calm, AND THEN PICKED UP AN UNBELIEVABLE FAST PACE as I got busy with work, and more work. It ended with a calm (a lazy Tuesday) and a familiar note. Monday was the first day of shooting for Anna Lou’s thesis film “Hacked.” It’s possibly my last production design this year,…

August is exciting…work-wise?
—
in DesignI was looking forward to August but I didn’t expect it to be this unforgiving when it comes to work and other things. I mean, the way things are going, I’ll need to hibernate after two weeks to recuperate. Like today I forgot my phone a SECOND time in TWO weeks. I really have never…

I want to work on thesis temporarily-for-forever
I am surviving with half a brain. Or, half a working brain. The traffic last night (due to the rain) was terrible; I got home late and I slept at 3am, and I have a 9pm meeting later and I’m not understanding any of my lectures. In Javascript class earlier, I couldn’t understand what we…

Indioboy Productions
—
in DesignI just got home from a meeting with Indioboy. :) Finally, after over a week of exchanging support tickets with Philhosting.net (whose customer support is very poor, in my opinion), we got the site up. It’s not yet complete, but at least it’s up! Working with Indioboy Productions is so much fun, I swear. I’ve…
