Week 9: Update

In todays class I provided the Web Team with an introduction to be placed on the home page and also content on how to get to the exhibition and also a contact us page. Below is the content for the homepage.

'Opening on Monday 9th May at Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford we present the 3rd Dimension exhibition. The 3rd Dimension focuses on three physical senses seeing, touching and hearing allowing visitors to experience a thrilling and exhilarating walk through of final year Undergraduates' work.

The exhibition focuses on three significant pieces from each student. The meaningful and important pieces will allow the students to express their attitudes and opinions on projects they have created throughout their time at University. There will be a moving mixture of graphical imagery, 3D designs and web design.'

I researched the homepage content by looking at other exhibition websites to see how they have worded their introduction. I wanted the content to be concise and to the point as apart from the image it is the first thing users will see. The introduction informs the users what the exhibition is about, where it is and the dates it is on.

As a group we discussed how our work was going to be displayed in the exhibition and this needed some thought as the other class are using all the display boards. I think now as a group we have to think outside the box to what we can use instead of standard boards. Sally came up with an interesting idea using paper to create a 3D box. On each side of the box an image of 1 of our 3 pieces can be displayed. I think the class was spilt on this idea purely because of the time scale it will take to produce for all of us. I feel that if we were able to make the box ourself then it could work however some members were not as enthusiastic and felt that realistically it could not be achieved. T shirt designs were also discussed and exhibition team need to decide if each group are going to wear a different colour, or each module pathway will wear a different colour.

I have also been working on my personal branding website and preparing my final 3 items to be seen at the exhibition as the deadline for this work has been set for Thursday.
