KABADAYI movie official website

January 22nd, 2008 by gurandem

We finally finished the website works for Filmacass‘ feature movie Kabadayi. I tried not to override the design used in the movie’s official poster by Emrah Yücel in the design process of the website. With my collague Tutku Tetik, who has done the flash programming and application part along with the 3D renders of the transitions, we took the inspiration of the “cracking wall style” logotype used in the movie itself. 

Here is the link.

Some Vacation Photos

August 17th, 2007 by gurandem

Finally I went on a vacation and took some pictures after a long while.
I took most of these pictures in Bozcaada, a small island at the coast of Canakkale, Turkey. I used Ilford 400/C41 black and white film on an 90’s Minolta analogue SLR camera that I quite like taking photos with.

Böcek Yapim goes online!

April 10th, 2007 by gurandem

Finally the site is online. Design by me, flash implementation and coding by my collague Kagan Cam, also thanks to Eren Dursun for some server side help.
Bocek Yapim is one of the leading film producer companies in Turkey, having produced movie hits such as SINAV, G.O.R.A. and Vizontele all directed by Ömer Faruk Sorak. They needed a clean site design where anyone can easily watch the latest ads, trailers and music videoclips both in archive or recently shot. We tried to provide that simplicity and added their corporate ID elements to the design. We chose flash technology to handle that intense video traffic.

Some desktop images for you!

February 18th, 2007 by gurandem

I made some wallpapers from the unexpected photo shoot’s pictures with d200 last week.
Sorry to have one resolution only, 1680×1050 wide. Maybe it is time to open a goodies section on my site so that
I can prepare wallpapers at different resolutions.. Working on it, meanwhile take these for your 20″ nice wide monitors..
Btw, I tried some logo sketch on them for guranification, well it is not finished but pretty close to what is in my mind.
Hehe, I like unicorns, in great respect to my favourite movie Blade Runner.

Güldürüklü Temaşa v1.0

January 23rd, 2007 by gurandem

Hi to all, I finally gave my graduation project at school this term with a pleasant B. That is an awesome thing for me, although there are a few unimportant classes left to take to finish the school completely, it doesn’t really matters. I succeeded the hardest part. Unfortunately I had a very small amount of time to spend working on this project, so a B is a very satisfactory grade for me.
The subject was game design, my game was a modernization on the traditional theatrical Turkish shadow-play widely known as Karagöz.  I tried to give the characters a new look and make them playable in today’s computer games world. I will convert the project to a web optimized and browser compatible format soon,  and then post a detailed explanation using my graduation thesis on the subject.

Btw,  “Güldürüklü Temaşa” means “Funny Show” or “a Show with Laughter” in old Turkish spoken during the Ottoman Empire era. The origin of the game comes from the very beginning of the empire, like 1300s. Small 2D puppets, in size of a hand, made of camel leather, reflected to a half transparent paper curtain by shivering brightish candle lights , the play can be stated as an ancestor to today’s multimedia environment.

Here are some screenshots from the gameplay screens for now..

Lost ctrl but gained command.

December 18th, 2006 by gurandem

Finally I could choose a brand new Apple core2duo iMac 20″ for my design and computing needs. Thanks to my colleagues at Networked Concepts, they helped me a lot during the purchase process.
My first impression on this machine is that these machines rock! They are simply the best computers Apple has produced by now. Both in osX and Windows XP (thanks to bootcamp beta) platform; the core2duo processor powered with DDR2 667Mhz rambus make dreams come true. As stated in the user’s manual on migrating to osX from Windows; lose ctrl, gain command! Personally I loved this motto..

simply powerful!
