Alex Nelson Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 My last website was done entirely in Flash. It was buggy, unreliable, and impossible to update. Basically, everything I wanted in a professional site. So, after about a year of that, I've completely overhauled the design (all HTML now). In an effort to make the site easy-to-use as well as reflect my personal philosophy, I've taken a minimalistic approach. I'd love to hear any comments and suggestions (particularly honest, constructive input). You can view it at www.ahnelson.com. Thanks guys! -Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Garrett Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Like the design a lot. I've never personally liked flash embedded videos, but I think that's my personal beef. You're resume takes you away from your site though. You should have it to where it opens in a new window instead of taking over the window you're currently in. I feel like having just a reel up there is never enough. Maybe a work page where you show more about those projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Nelson Posted May 22, 2010 Author Share Posted May 22, 2010 Thanks for the input! I meant for visitors to download the PDF of my resume, but I forgot that many browsers don't give you an option. They just open it in the tab or window you're using. I'll probably post a fix for that tonight. Is there any other information, besides project descriptions, that you think is missing?

Rob Vogt Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Nice job Alex! A definite improvement. Maybe a little bio about yourself?? I dunno I like the simplicity and its nice to see a website with a different color that's not distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Wallace Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Very nice. I never saw the original, but this is clean and elegant. Everything design should be IMHO. Nice reel too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Nelson Posted May 23, 2010 Author Share Posted May 23, 2010 Besides providing a reel, what do you guys think is the most important or desirable function of a cinematographer's site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLTvFilmGuide Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Wow, really nice interace on the website and your reel was cool. Really like the clocks smashing down, wow, amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
