My previous portfolio: one animated page, driven by a command menu.
The portfolio that came before this one: a single animated page with a command menu, built to be looked at rather than read, and to make the first two seconds count.

Treatment
A portfolio is the pitch, not the reference. This one is animated, opinionated and built to be looked at, with a command menu instead of a navigation bar so the whole site is one keystroke deep.
معرض الأعمال هو العرض التقديمي لا المرجع. هذا متحرك وذو رأي ومبني ليُنظر إليه، بقائمة أوامر بدل شريط تنقّل، فيصير الموقع كله على بُعد ضغطة واحدة.
Keeping it apart from the résumé meant it never had to compromise: it can be heavy on motion without making a recruiter fight it for the facts, because the facts live on their own site.
وفصله عن السيرة الذاتية عنى ألّا يتنازل: يستطيع الإكثار من الحركة دون أن يصارعه مسؤول التوظيف على المعلومة، لأن المعلومة تعيش في موقعها الخاص.
Challenges
Motion that does not cost the first impression
The problem
A portfolio is judged in the first two seconds, and that is exactly the window that heavy animation and font loading spend on themselves.
What I did
Content is readable before the animation resolves rather than gated behind it, so a slow connection degrades to a plain page instead of a blank one.
