Research
For my research I decided to look at my hobbies and crafts relating to that. For this I looked at a site called Deviantart.com this site holds a community of designers to produce they work and put it online.
From this I came across some paper-craft based on game characters, This caught my attention and i decided to search for websites relating to origami and paper-craft online. The Blog PaperKraft.blogspot.co.uk came up , it shows other peoples creation specifically aimed at characters in games and anime/manga.
Even though I found this interesting I found trouble in figuring out how I was going to present this in a 3 page trailer. I went back to the drawing board and found that I can still use the idea of games. As I like to play video games I also tend to read online reviews or magazines before I buy them. My favourite Magazine I like to read is PlayMag they also have a website -> http://www.play-mag.co.uk/, another well know website is gamespot.com and ign.com.
From then on I decided I would create a trailer website for game reviews. I came across some other websites that were simple in design, and thought they did well in colour scheme and simplicity.
Task Description
A start-up organisation of your choice, which can be fictitious in nature, wishes to implement their initial 'teaser' website announcing their products and services. You have been asked to provide a functional three page site as your bid for the contract, with a development blog documenting the entire production process.
The site must be implemented using HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with extensive use of embedded media (images, audio and video). The initial target platform is a modern, standards-compliant browser running on a desktop PC.
Additional credit may be awarded by successfully supporting additional platforms such as mobile and tablet. You do not need to target older, less compliant browsers. You should also avoid using server-side technologies (PHP, SQL etc.) as the focus of this assignment is on client-side languages only.
Take care in the design of your site. You will need to consider the user experience in creating a suitable interface and should refine the design over multiple iterations. Consider the target audience of your chosen organisation and current trends in web design.
The development blog should contain detailed entries covering the entire project duration. This includes initial concepts, idea refinement, research, implementation, usability tests and so on. It should also demonstrate an understanding of legal and developmental issues with web design (e.g. accessibility, browser support) and explain how your work takes these aspects into account. Blogs must be hosted at www.blogger.com as a unique blog containing only work for this assignment. Ensure the blog’s visibility is not set to private. You must include screen shots of all blog posts with your submission.
