The cartography of the home screen will be the most intensive scene. It will contain 5 elements: 3 architecture projects, a box assigned to paintings, and a drive-in movie screen assigned to a  blog/CV. When each element is massed over, it will change color. Once clicked, a serial vision animation will bring the user into the map (like google earth), changing perspective from plan to elevation. In other words, what appears to be a view from above (like a map) will proceed downward, such that you are at eye-level with the drawn world before the project description appears. 

Gimmicks like people, traffic, and building dances will support each project where necessary. At this point it is unclear how or where this will occur (depending on which projects I choose, and how they are arranged).

Because there are only 5 project spaces, most of the time will be spent story-boarding, and figuring out how to enter each project from the map. If the motions from map to description are successful enough,  the descriptions can be basic and generic.

Saturday (3/7): Choose projects and develop map (1 hour)
Sunday: Work on fly-bys and map, decide what codes may be necessary, and how to construct movieclips (stop motion, tweening?) (1 hour) 
Monday: Fly-bys and map interaction will be resolved--sketched out (4 hours)
Tuesday: One architecture project is executed fully (2 hours)
Wednesday: One architecture project is executed fully (2 hours)
Thursday: Architecture project and painting gallery are executed fully (2.5 hours)
Friday: CV/blog is executed (1 hour)
Saturday: Adjustments (1 hour)
Sunday: Adjustments (1 hour)
Monday (3/16): be finished
