LECTURE NOTES

13/09/18 (Week 3)

This week a lecture was about type for screen. Further, Mr. Shamsul also gave an explanation about images as text and Web Fonts.

After that, we were introduced to our first project for Interactive Design which is designing a landing page including a "call to action feature". We are required to design a landing page for any one of our favorite singer, band, sports team or movie. To start the project I have to design the layout first.  

1.1 Landing Page Layout Ideas

1.2 Landing Page 1

I tried to design a landing page from the layout that I sketch before, but then I still have to ask Mr. Shamsul to improve my ideas

20/09/18 (Week 4)

In this class, while waiting for feedback I continued my work and after I got feedback from Mr. Shamsul so I tried to improve and make it better. we have to finish it at least 80% before this class end.

FEEDBACK

Week 4; For general feedback, Mr. Shamsul told us that we should add a footer for our landing page and don't put box inside the box. Specific Feedback Mr. Shamsul and Mr. Lee said that my Landing page is not showing a singer website with pop genres so I have totally redo it and make it better, I have to look at the original "Demi Lovato" website and make it better. Additionally, I have to give some space in between. Week 5; Mr. Shamsul said for my first project overall, the design looks relatively acceptable.

REFLECTION

EXPERIENCE:

Week 3; because I'll be designing a singer website so I tried to go through all famous singer or an artist to get some ideas for layout sketch. Week 4; I have struggled with how to make it better from the original website but it quite fun when I designing a landing page of my favorite singer.

OBSERVATION

Week3; There are many different good layouts that I can improve and use it as my landing page layout. Week 4; I observed that it's not easy to create a new landing page which that we have to make it more interesting and good looking than the original website. we have to think about the colors, space and, the font that we wanted to use.

FINDINGS

Week 4; Designing a website is not as easy as I think before, because everything that we put or add-on can impact the design. However, Design Principle also play a role in this situation where we have to make it balance, see the contrast, and etc.
