OK first of all- that high pitched clicking noise was not cool :( I thought my laptop just died or something- make the noises more subtle :)

Main and about us don't load for me. :(

just says loading content forever. I closed it because content never seemed to actually load.

Continously loading for me as well. Although I'm guessing this is just a bug that will be ironed out soon enough, it's worth thinking about giving some indication of progress, otherwise the user has no idea how long they are expected to wait for.

Well from what I've seen so far it's looking good. Seeing as though the only aspect of the site that appears on all your pages for the moment is your navigation footer, I'll comment on that first:

It looks pretty good as is. But consider maybe changing the font used for your slogan under the logo, as it can be hard to read. Secondly there's a bit too much blank space on the right of the footer for my liking. Consider extending the navigation over to that side, or add another feature/graphic there. Also, as mentioned above by duncanhall; add current loading status to your preloaders, then visitors will know if your content is actually going to load, or if something went wrong. The front page is ok - I like your on load transitions. However, after that it's a bit too static for Flash... if you know what I mean?

I'd like to see this once it's fully completed, as for now only the "main" page loads for me, nothing else does :(

Apart from that - you're on the right track! :)

P.S. I agree with Darkmotion; get rid of the on load sounds, and consider changing your button rollover sounds to something more subtle.

I think it looks very promising.. Just note that E3 also stands for Electronic Entertainment Expo, hehe.. But I guess it's too late, now?

EDIT:: I was talking about the "mini-icon", the one next to the URL... It looks like "E3", hmm

look ok... i'd definately put some sort of percentage attached to the preloader.

The noise scarred the begeezus outta me too. If it was looking at a live site I prolly would've closed it right away.

Off the top of my head all I could see was that there is SOOOO much goin on and randomly transitioning in, on the homepage.

The logo itself is pretty good... however you need to get rid of the section of the red 3 that's inside of the white 3 and then center the dot.

And the typo layout in general is poor, from the truncation and callouts, to the wording, and proofreading.

On the home page you have "located on the contact page" as a different font size... and it makes no sense, as it doesn't call anything special out at all. What makes less sense is that you truncated the sentence very poorly. How it reads to me is

"...or simply join our newsletter.

Located on the contact page. And we will keep you updated"

Same goes in the about us section have some larger text to call out specific things... but they really don't make sense. I think it'd be a better usage of the idea if you called out phrases and not just a word. So right now you have:



New Motion 3 studios began as a simple vision, in order to build creative solutions in a wide range of media forms. Our primary media was dot.com websites, yet over time we expanded their imagination and skills bringing forth a new level to the playing field. Using our techincal design skills, along with marketing projected solutions we can ultimately generate on of a kind experiences, which will capture out clients primary focus.

Our focal point here at New Motion 3 is to put you, the client first, we strive on fulfilling all of our clients needs when taking into account a creative design solution. Mutually, we uses your motivation as fuel, in order to launch our company further. Although it can be very difficult for other comapny to envision the work you desire, New Motion 3 differs in that we have the talent, vision, and methods to deliver the best results and demands in todays' marketplace.


You can't read that and tell me that you can't see how it doesn't make sense. I'd defiantely get a proof reader up in that joint. I could do it... but it'd cost you money that will "mutually" further our companies. :hugegrin:

that beeping noise - lower the pitch and soften the eq on it - seemed to go straight to my cerebral cortex or something.

the loader animation you have up - the mask cuts off the sides of the blur - there was a lot of loading and hardly anything was loaded - how is your loader working and what is it loading?

and everything that simp said. and for more font changing wonders - just look at his footer...

oh and i think there is too much copy (or text) to really pull off the "call out" font size changes

***EDIT*** Look at attached image.

Notice how the call outs form a sentence when read together -
"creative solutions bringing forth a new level ultimately generating one of a kind experiences" --that's how you want to do it - all while keeping it positioned correctly.


(Your copy (text) needs a lot of work - you end up communicating like 3 different things that really don't thrust your company into a solid effective position. One sentence it sounds like you are new to this, the next like you've done it for a while, the next like you rely on the client too much. I can help you with it - but the consultation will run you a nominal fee. Private message me if you are interested)
