SPECIALIST CLASS : First class

welcome back to my blog, This is going to be a very short post ..for today's post , i will be sharing my first experience in Keith's class. Keith is the specialised tutor for my Media II class where i will be learning about film.  This class was an introductory class where he talked about things to do to get ideas, the module outline ,what to expect from the course and what the course expects from us. we even met the september students of our course!.  when i put my thinking cap on In this class,he suggested some tips on how to think of ideas. tips like doing something you have a good knowledge or something that interests you or something you have no idea of or even listening to music. He suggested to try something new and I did. In that class ,i listened to music and was convinced to try something new that i knew nothing of based on an experience of mine that i can imitate . That is when i came up with the idea of one's childhood scare of seeing scary things in t...

Arts & Design Project 1|Welcome back!

This post is a welcome back post and idea post all in one. WELCOME TO THE SECOND TERM. Last term was tasking and although i didn't get the score i wanted,i aim to be better.  For today's class, we were given a task to generate 20 ideas for a new project in 20 minutes. it was very tasking but I ended up finishing it...after 20 minutes of course. In the image below, you will see all the ideas I came up with. i was a bit confused at first but towards the end my ideas became mre specifc and relevant to my moduleAlso, anywhere you see media, just substitute it for film or movie industry. out of all of these, the idea I think the most interesting for me to try is making a short film on something that has happened in my life. I won't just focus the film on me specifically  but it will be something that has happened or happens in my life that other people can relate to.  Therefore ,my genre of interest will be a mix of horror and thr...

MODULE SELF EVALUATION : MAJOR PROJECT

In my other course, we were thought that there are four stages of learning researched by David Kolb so for this post I will be evaluating what I have learnt in this module through these stages. Experience Digital Arts Blog : At the beginning of this course I was aware of the purpose of showing processes on our digital art blog. However, I saw the true importance of this blog during the process of building my major projects.for example when I forget certain techniques and  I check my previous post. This blog thought me the importance of details and comprehension. you won't be able to properly blog or even succeed if you don't understand what you're doing.  Food Blog : This was the main aspect of my major project and I started it late because i was too scared to start. I made myself believe that it was soo difficult so it almost became normal to procrastinate. This is very ironic for me because I love food. This was a lovely experience. I r...

WEBSITE IS OFFICIALLY PUBLISHED|UX & UI TESTING RESPONSE

'it always seems impossible until it's done'-Nelson Mandela yes, I finally published my website. I thought I never would and I thought I was extremely behind but it happened.please check it out and make sure to complete the feedback form. This is the link: My website  and you can find the feedback under the contact section on my website. UX & UI TESTING RESPONSE  So far, my classmates have given feedback and I will include it in this post. Most of the responses I got both negative and positive were expected because there were some parts of the website that I was unsure of. I'm going to address some responses that gave honest criticism. THIS IS BASED ON THE 7 RESPONSE I HAVE GOTTEN SO FAR. CONTENT: From this pie chart, it shows that 71.4%  liked the content of my website while 28.6% like it to an extent. This is totally understandable because in a previous post I stated my target audience and it seems logical that people out...

PRE-PUBLISH:CROSSING T'S and DOTTING I'S

welcome. This is the final website update. I am going to be finishing up on my website. HOMEPAGE.  Like I stated in my previous post, my logo was changing positions and was overlaying other important aspects on different devices and this made my websites look less appealing. so I had to remove my logo from the header completely. This is how it ended up looking.  I tried to make the header look less empty and this is what I came up with. I put the menu bar on top.I preferred it with the logo however, the page looks good this way as it isn't as colourful. As you have noticed, I changed the menu bar on my website. This is mainly because the texts on the previous menu were suspiciously overlaying. another reason is that my logo is not there anymore, therefore, the header was almost empty so I decided to make the header look occupied. To insert a menu bar, select add(+), go to menu, then choose the menu bar you prefer. when this is done, the buttons ...

WEBSITE UPDATE:MOBILE TESTING

welcome, For this post i will  showing the mobile version of my wix website. Initially,i was having issues with the mobile aspect of my website. This is because my logo was too big and the page background was too wide for a normal phone screen compared to the screen of a PC. After making some changes, this is how the front page ended up looking. I was satisfied with this cover  but after testing it on other deviceS,it seemed my logo kept changing positions depending on the size of the deice the website was being viewed. so the best option for me was to delete the logo from the header.I felt really bad but it was for the best. This is how the website looks on my iphone 6s after deleting the logo and i think it looks good like this.This is the homepage and the navigation page.  I also took screenshots of how the mobile website looks on the pc. This is the rest of the pages on my mobile website that i viewed through the PC. I think it looks good. The f...
