Website Design + Feedback

 > Better logo video, still want to produce even more developed ones later on and utilise illustrative skills 

> Strips of different projects, have more in depth pages on each project (add after deadline) 

> Essential to have About and Contact to ensure possible clients and employers can know who I am and get in contact with me 

> Black aesthetic with strong sans serif type to reflect the direction I've taken most of this and last year in presenting my work 

> Don't want site to feel boring, with plain background and arrow through work

> Use of parallax scroll and movement of images with bold visuals to create sense of character 

JENNY FEEDBACK 



PEER FEEDBACK 

- top of site is too cluttered and feels less streamlined as the rest of the site, I feel like the simpler the better for this part as the work really stands for itself 

- make sure backgrounds are colour consistent with images on slideshow areas 

- swallow, creative report, aren't fully visible and centre aligned 

- move up menopause as I think the work looks great, maybe switch with curate.tv?


> Overall site works well, spent time making sure all functions worked, navigation is easy and understandable (especially back buttons as learnt from love.jpeg feedback) 

> Simple design, work speaks for itself

> Instant video of logos changing is simple addition at start rather than main thing

 To Complete Website: > Name Love.jpeg created into artwork for starting page  > Lydia Article  > Joely Article  LYDIA + JOELY COLLAGE PIECES FOR ARTICLES  So - During lockdown 0.1, I found myself happily single and most definitely enjoying a little bit of me time… I was adamant that nobody was going to distract me from this intense period of isolation. One day I decided to go on a walk round the park (by myself of course). All of a sudden I find myself bumping into an old family friend’s son. This is someone who I have fancied since I was a kid, and admired from a far… We got chatting and ended up having a socially distance convo for about half an hour. FYI - I knew this person had a GF… When I got home and checked my phone, he had slid into my DMs and we started texting. One thing lead to another - he ended up confessing he’s been in love with me for years, he split up with his girlfriend the next day and we also got a private apartment in town where ...

 - Aria article     > background     > animations + interactions - main page layout development  - Mia article  ARIA ARTICLE  > Too many elements moving together  > Spent time cutting out the messages with the background and same with pink aria images though, so should use these with additional interactive elements  > Thought about the hover interaction used on Ell's page  > Make pink aria pictures appear if you hover over another image or symbol? eg. finger up pixel cursor art used in aria collage experiments  > Makes more sense to have the messages as hover elements, as the pink aria images create an important visual and if they were not present most of the time until the user interacted with them this would reduce the level of interest in the overall imagery  > Typing message symbol can be used for hover element instead for the story  > This way the user is following the story b...

Identity EVALUATION

Alike to GAIA EXRTH, it was disappointing not being able to complete the brief within the timescale set out. I recognise that I like working a lot on passion projects and pushing them further and further, to the point that perhaps the goals I set are unrealistic or I spend too long on one level/area of the project. In this case this was a research brief and I set out to spend a lot of time doing research and testing ideas. I found this a more difficult brief to do within the covid landscape and felt less inspired, as I wanted to go out into the world and look at things, ask people, visit places and so on. This meant this project took a back seat and by the end of the year revisiting it so late on meant there was no time to fulfil the visions I had for the project. It's exciting however to have so many projects I'm interested in to be continuing after uni as it means I can keep the momentum up of designing and producing more ideas and more work. The overall concept of this inter...
