Extensive package of Orange desktop programmes, for over 2 million Orange customers in France to install and manage their web connections & activities with, produced for Orange at Tui interactive media.

Orange TV Portal (OTVP) was the way for Orange customers to reach Internet on TV sets.

Many icons were designed for this multiscreen project, e.g. for the 12 star signs of its Horoscope service.

My role:

Website to present my own products, skills and interests, designed in 2001 and updated until 2006.

Playful and highly animated Flash site, with innovative but clear navigation, and concise info. The site loads all text from an external XML file (localized in English and French), and loads external images as described in that XML file (e.g. by pressing the next and previous arrows on an image).

My role (single-handedly):

• Ideation, design (including all icons), image creation & treatment, and smooth animation (with morphing)
• Programming of the site and its XML file (in English and French)

Series of 9 extensive educational CD ROMs, for children at school and at home, produced at Mindscape – one of France’s leading producers & distributors of multimedia products for education & gaming.

The new series resulted in major international sale improvements – from 120 000 to 150 000 copies – up by 25 %.

My role:

Series of 8 icons that can smoothly morph/animate into each other, showing the 8 end positions of the 4 hand gestures to assess and train with the smart GripAble IoT tool set for rehabilitation and assessment: grip/release, wrist extension/flexion, pronation/supination, and radial/ulnar deviation.

I re-created the icons in Adobe Illustrator (in several variations, and each with the same node-count to ensure proper morphing), after quickly creating and smoothly animating them in Adobe XD Design, to test their suitability. The icon animations don’t only add delight, but also meaningful information to the screens, explaining the medical terminology, and relating it to the tracked progress (which I also animated in Adobe XD Design).

My role:

• Graphic Design – creating the icons in Adobe Illustrator single-handedly
• Meaningful Animation – creating animation demos in Adobe XD Design
• Guiding a Visual Designer – guiding on the icons for his final screen designs (as shown in the image)
