REALIZING “COOL WORKS WISHED”

─ Please tell us your purpose to join HARTIN MARTIN.

I felt I would be able to do something interesting in HARTIN MARTIN, that is my first purpose of that. I was going to a school in order to study web-related matters after leaving my previous company as I wanted to do something different as my work. Some day one my older member of my university introduced me the current company, HARTIN MARTIN. I felt good atmosphere about this company and decided I will work in this company.

─ What are the differences of your image against this company before and after joining?。

I have not thought about differences of my image to this company so much to date. That is because my older member of my university introduced me here, so there has been no anxious. That was my intuitive and logical decision, a kind of. I think I was like “going my way”.

─ What do you specialize in your work?

I specialize in Madia Design. I also have a position as Crossmedia UI Designer, which is officially named Crossmedia User Interface Designer. The details of this work are to design the user experience across various media and to create the structure that users can use.
Internet is originally used the emergency network in Cold War, and then it has become the tool to exchange lucubration or papers for professors in universities. So, the internet was not for seeing video movies as that was just characteristic information in those days. However, the baud rate has been much improved in these 2-3 years so that any information can be transferred and the terminals to process that has also been much improved.
These days everyone can buy the internet tools and use them, and they can do anything with the internet, but I think people do not know what they should show in the internet.
If they show any characteristic information as ever, it is impossible to read all characters. But showing photos or images is not suitable for the internet. The most important activity is to give information to users by incorporating stories, flows and nonverbal information. My work is to think about the structure to perform these experiences.

─ Please tell us your work in detail.

Mainly I’m dealing with FLASH. I create just animations and menus and consider improving interfaces. I’ve worked as a engineer of animation and I’m interest in playing music, so I really focus on how the visual and audio information combined affect each other, so I sometimes take much time to complete my work. Also, I sometimes deal with CSS and HTML. I can everything that I can do there and that nobody has not done to date, or, things that everyone is doing but needs combinations, improving speed or conversion etc. That is interesting for me.
