Bio's for each brief on website

I wrote up some bios for each of the briefs for my website, here they are:


The Mosi Brief, better known as 'Digital innovations and Technologies'. The brief was that we had to create three posters to advertise the new exhibit (that we chose) for The Museum of Science and Industries, as well as a leaflet and an extended project (of our choice). The idea for my exhibit was to have it show the evolution of how we consume news, from print, to radio and television, and finally social media. So, I decided to base my posters off of these three times to do one poster on each. For my extended project I made some mock ups of what some infographics I would create for the exhibition.

The Creative Play brief was that we were put into groups including some of the animation students, we had to create what we think a future city is going to look like. I was put into a group with three animation students and two other people from my course. We decided we were going to make an advertisement video for our future city ‘Futopia’, the video was meant to look as if it was from the 70s and what they think the future is going to look like. I made one of the posters in calibration with one of the other students off of my course, as well as recolouring the logo, and producing the video. 

The App Brief was where we had to create an app for someone that is new to Manchester. I decided to make my app to show alternative study places that students could go to do work. I wanted my app to look quite simple and easy to navigate. I also made all of the iconography myself. 

For the Website Brief, also known as 'Digital innovations and Technologies', we have to code an online portfolio of our work that we have done in university so far. I made this website. We also have to make a show reel of all our work,which is shown on the home page and the bottom of this page.

The KidsCan Brief is a client-based brief, where we are put into groups of three, and we have to create an app, three posters, a motion piece, and an exhibit item for the charity KidsCan. I was put into a group with Charlotte Scollon and Jo-Beth Docherty. We decided to make a digital story app that is meant to teach children whose siblings have cancer what is happening. We wanted the characters to be animals so that it is not overly realistic, so we decided to have them as ducks. I did all the illustrations for the app, as well as writing parts of the story, and creating all the posters. 

The Contradictions Brief, also known as ‘Digital Context’. For this brief we were put into groups and given a contradiction that we had to create a solution for. Our contradiction was how technology in education can both be a good thing and a bad thing. We decided to connect it to how we are going to be moving room next year and wanted to re-design the room as the ‘perfect classroom’. Me and Sophie Knight worked together to create the course booklet, and Glen Watts 3D designed the classroom.

Week 2

Notes Footers are like links to something, such as URLs or emails. <Li> </Li> is an unordered list.  A basic menu would have some simple CSS rules, i.e stylings. { = section so have things separated like 'divs', shows when an area starts and finishes.  Dropdown menu-  Have links added- items and subitems, added next to items.  Use CSS to hide the items until you scroll over them.  All boxes are relative and try to stay on line.  You can animate things using CSS.  THERE IS ONLY ONE HEAD AND BODY, if you have extras then it confuses the program.  Codes To start we created a new webpage, with a CSS and NAV folder inside of it. Then we have to put the code for the index.html page to work on: <! DOCTYPE html > <!-- Standard html5 blank template --> < html > < head > < title ></ title > </ head > < body > <!-- all content goes here. --> ...

Week 1- Part 2

Codes: -  This will create a basic webpage with some text on it: You need to have a folder for the webpage, with one folder called CSS, and one the name Index (or something similar) <!DOCTYPE html>                                               <html>         <head>                 <title>Web Demo/title>        </head>        <body>                Hello World!        </body> </html> The body tag means the text on the page, so any text they would want on the webpage they should put it where 'Hello World!' is. -  This will change the styles of the webpage that you created in the last tutorial thing. Within the CSS folder make a file called...
