InnerFlash v4

InnerFlash v.4 is the last version of my portfolio under the domain innerflash.net. I did start working on a 5th version, but it proved too time-consuming…

There were many improvements on this version, even though the functionality of the site itself did not change much. It was translated to Spanish, adding to the already available English and Portuguese versions. Flash’s Actionscript was updated, giving it a “new engine” to run on. It ran faster and gave a much better quality to the imagery, which always took the main focus on InnerFlash designs. I also started playing with 3D rendering programs, and created the angel for the welcome page. Overall, the whole web design of the page gave me much satisfaction.

The 4th version of my online portfolio really helped me take off professionally. It got recognition and much praise, and helped me get called to a bunch of cool interviews in high-profile Norwegian companies, like Aftenposten, TV2 & Opera, to name a few. Well, it turned out that I didn’t get the jobs I applied for in those companies, but honestly, I was literally just shooting in the dark and hoping for the best. These interviews really helped me feel that I “was in the game” and that my portfolio made a good impression.

I would later get a job at Illusion AS as a Flash Designer. Illusion is a leading figure in the Norwegian online fashion world. Working for them gave me a lot of experience, for which I’m very thankful.
