REFLECTION

EXPERIENCES

For this module, we were allowed to write all the things that we want too and it's very free., I got to experience to design an interactive book and its not just about that but there's a chance for me to start writing also.  I got to experience to make the static illustration to be animation in this class and I found it very interesting. It's not just a printed book, but in this module, i experienced to design E-book for desktop and e-book for iPhone.

OBSERVATION
I observed that while designing a book is not easy especially when we want to add the animated illustration on it, we need to decide which illustration that doesn't have to be repeated "forever" because it can distract the readers and it's hard to make it readable. Furthermore, While using the justification text we need to be really careful about the rivers between the sentences even if we fix it using the justification text settings. I also observed that even though we might change the layout while we designing the e-book for desktop, mobile, Ipad, etc. we still need to keep the consistency of the book design. last but not least, the grid is very important, it's very helping us to get better layout and look.

FINDINGS
I found myself was really struggling in the beginning, I was really confused and don't know how to start writing a book for me to design a letter on, even when I finish it I still got struggle to design the illustration, make it to GIF, layout and also the leading kerning and letter spacing but I finally can complete all the project on time because all the feedback from Mr. Vinod and my friends it helps me to finish it step by step and I feel so happy when I see the book that I've designed it on my own.
