Alex, the Categories for New Website Design Ideas Please:

What is a Cinemagraph?

In short, a cinemagraph refers to a still image that has a minor isolated area of movement. Check out Tripwire Magazine’s impressive examples of this semi-motion imagery. Is it difficult to pull off? There are step by step instructions out there to navigate the combination of still imagery and video … or, a Farotech expert would love to help (and may accomplish the task more quickly).

What is GIF?

You’ve already learned about one type: cinemagraph. Essentially, GIF’s are visuals that incorporate some type of movement/animation. The use of GIF’s incorporated into new website design ideas has everything to do with adding emphasis and dimension to a website. There is no need to bombard your site with them. Use GIF’s sparingly if need be, but use them where it counts.

What is Parallax Scrolling?

Now that you have GIFs and cinemagraphs in your web-design repertoire, you’re ready for Parallax. Parallax effects can be used in combination with GIFs, but in regard to scrolling, it involves the speed of a website in connection with a page background. One of the most impressive examples I’ve seen is “The Boat,” an online graphic novel. Another less complex, but interesting example is the “Jacksonville Art Walk.”

What is Grid Design?

This is one scenario where you don’t want to go off the grid. Rather, use the grid to your advantage. Follow the modernized website design grid work of Faebric.com, that offers a uniform and unique overlay of grids to showcase various artist collections. Done right, utilizing grids can allow a site to maximize information without appearing overpowering.

What is a Micro Experience?

Remind you of something weather related? Although it’s not cousin to a “micro burst” a micro experience used metaphorically is like a swift-localized current on your website. These micro-experiences are self-contained within sections of your website – small applications that pop up and allow the user to interact by offering activation of a video, audio or other collaborative element.

What is Personalization?

If this were really Jeopardy, this category would be an easy $200 question. People admire originality these days. You don’t need to be Picasso, but if you have any artistic ability or intuition, find a way to execute it through sketch, typography, overall design, etc..
