Inspiration

During my last tutorial, Stephen mentioned I should go see galleries to get some inspiration which I did yesterday. Honestly I don't really understand gallery exhibitions, perhaps my thought process is too surface level to fully understand the depth of the artist's artworks but it was definitely an experience as I saw some famous artist's artworks while I was there.

I actually found myself taking more inspiration from the children books in the gift shops rather than the artworks themselves😅. Anyway, here's some of the pictures from the trip. There were more but I didn't want to fill this blog with too many pictures. But the books here are a great example for the potential art style I might go for.

Videos

 Am now working on my videos, which I thought was only 2, promo and documentation but was actually 3, the walkthrough. I found some audio to go with my videos and even created the YouTube Branding page. Since realising that I forgot about the documentation video *whoops*, I have spent the time perfecting my images and website designs recording myself to use for materials for the video. Not quite sure how I plan to approach it but I figure I can do it like how I've been doing my blogs, personal and straight to the point.

Evaluative Post

In assignment 2, the project titled "Elephant" aims to raise awareness about the endangerment of African elephants through an interactive website featuring a written novel. Each chapter of the novel can be read numerically or at random and will incorporate information about African elephants and links to support organizations. Readers can scroll through the website, encountering occasional photography and illustrations as they progress through the story. Personally, I believe that the approach of using a novel on a website to bring attention towards animal endangerment is an interesting idea, and it certainly reaches out to a broader audience. Perhaps, I was not thorough enough with my research nevertheless I have not found any website with the same exact concept. Websites raising awareness by showcasing animals or just storytelling websites in general certainly exist, but one containing a novel leading up to information on the subject has not come up while I was searching....

Website Redesign

Image
Found my website rather hideous after adding some of the contents, so I am now doing some redesigning. I figured I may even change my menu since I find it very unaesthetically (if that's a word) pleasing. The ones on top are the previous menu designs and I decided to go for something slimmer and sleeker and less in your face. I'm quite happy with this new design, it's out of the way but at the same time easy to access. I also researched some more websites to reference and take inspiration from, my classmates have been particularly helpful in providing advice on the design aspect. Obviously they suggested Pinterest, but I find myself still having trouble figuring out the design I want to go for. At times I even feel like my colour palette no longer suits the feel I was going for, but I'm rather hesitant to change it.  By the way here are some storytelling websites I have found as reference for myself: https://www.aftermetoo.com/  https://mirror-planet.world/  https://imm...
