About Me
My name is a Jonah Sulla-Menashe. I am a self taught graphic/web designer born and raised on Kauai, Hawaii.
I have spent years doing graphic work using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Working various odd jobs, and producing a variety of product from posters to bookmarks. My designs tend to be simple.
More recently I have moved into web design. First starting with web builders and DIY (do it yourself) platforms like Wix and WordPress. To now using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and other markup/programing languages to create whatever is desired. From simple personal blogs to full E-commerce stores.
The Story (Virtual Hallucinations)
Create a blog with a distinctive brand centered around movie analysis. The key to success: Communicate the essential ingredients that distinguish the art form of film.
1. motion - "The Medium is the Message"
Film uses motion to tell its story. Therefor, I felt the inclusions of animation to be important. All graphics are SVG's and then animated within the DOM through CSS.
2. genre - "The Shapeshifting Aspect of Film"
The genre of a film informs the characteristics of the piece. Each category conatins different tropes, colors, and atmospheres. I wanted to reflect that transformation by morphing the logo to fit different pages.
3. font & color - "The Form of the Medium"
