Sketches

Process: I started out with sketches (obviously) and started with a simple design that I wanted. I then had to find a company that I wanted to make a website for. To do this I chose a color scheme (blue and orange) and searched different companies to see if they had images that had those colors. I found Yellowstone, and they had perfect images for what I wanted! I then created my shape map, and added in my content! My audience was anyone who wants to travel to Yellowstone, and the message is everything Yellowstone! There is a lot of messages and content in this web page that point towards them making a trip plan, where they can go through the website and make a plan of where they want to go. I made a few changes from my draft, but I am proud of the overall product!

Critique: I critiqued Josh Smith and Sarah Allen’s projects. I  also met with Jane Doe and John Smith for my critique via Join Me, and they were really helpful! They helped me align things better and pick better colors. The main blue picture was a little too purple, so they suggested that I go and change that in Photoshop. So I opened the image and used selective color to adjust the image coloring a little but. Then it matched my layout a lot better. My instructor also suggested that I break up my paragraphs that are showing so it looks like there is a little less to read. It was also needing a little more blue so they helped me add in the blue bars at the top and the bottom of the page. I followed most of the advice given, but there were some that I still felt I could leave there.

Color Scheme: Complimentary (blue and orange)

Fonts: Avenir-Sans Serif (normal, and bold)
