final: popup book

Ok well thinking about how short time is and how little experience I have with the idea of an enormous popup book, I decided to downsize my project. I just bought a new domain name which I wanted to make into a portfolio site. I want to design and complete my own artwork on illustrator and create a picture viewer of my previous work as well as
creating an intro flash animation. I’m not sure entirely of the actual layout but I was thinking of going with the pop up theme though simpler and see how it animates. I am sure I will need help when it comes to learning the programs as problems arise but I feel fairly confident that I can complete part of it through those programs with the knowledge I have. I want to make sure my idea translates me as a designer as well as familiarizing myself with new programs.
