Wish I was in bed...
Today I have been planning the project for my Group Assignment. I have been designated as the Project Manager for the assignment, so I have been coming up with a rough outline as to how the project should go.
First of all, I sat down and sketched out the plot of the narrative for the promo. My group has decided to go with my concept of "The Fabulous Life" interactive media theme park, where every visitor has the chance to "Step beyond the Velvet Rope, and experience the life of a celebrity". So, based on this concept, as well as the other things that I discussed with my group (incorporating the best aspects of each others original concepts and presentations), I have now come up with the rough outline of the story for the promo, and the things we need to include.
I went through my notes from the classes, as well as the notes from the "Madwiki" site, and I took the information that I wanted to include from these sources, and also the guidlines given on website production, colour theory, and project planning. I applied the criteria for the project to our concept, and have now answered most of the questions posed in tems of what the content will be...it's now a matter of discussing with my group how much of it is feasible, and delegating tasks...we have already designated Technical, Design, and Management roles (as is the classical project set-up), but I'm sure these roles will overlap...If we can help each other, then it will only result in a better end-product, so it makes sense, but the tasks assigned to each person will be, ultimately, their responsibility...I'm very confident in my team, though!
I hope to make a Gantt Chart, and have already looked into the possibility downloading some software to facilitate this...It's too late to do that now, though, but the name of the site is "Jpowered.com" if anyone wants to check it out...
I also looked at the "Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0", which had some interesting points about "good practice" in the world of web design...
Ok, I'm boring myself now, so I'm gonna go...My head is totally fried now...On the plus side, I did watch "Flushed Away" today with my niece, which was nice...Actually some "laugh-out-loud" moments for me, which is always a good sign...I'd give it 4/5...Ian McKellan as the Frog is GENIUS!!
Night!
