Mark 1 Presentation

Mark 1 Presentation;

So yesterday was the Mark 1 presentations and due to the lack of time I had for actual design work I felt I had enough to start but at the same time I felt it was slightly lacking in detail and I could of had alot more done if I didn't have to wait for the Primary School to get back to me.

That said for my Mark 1 I managed to present what I had which was my designs and where I was planning on going with my project where I felt I needed more work and also where I managed to get what I needed to complete my task.  With everything I submitted for the Mark 1 I was worried that the lecturers would of thought I hadn't done enough for the submission in hand but they said that I had done more than they were expecting and that where I am to go next is exactly where they think I should be goind and also mentioned how they would like to see a working part done by the Mark 2.

So the feedback I felt was good and now I am ready to get to work on the next part and hopefully have the application working or at least part of it working by the Mark 2.

The Starting point

Application Design;

So now that I finished my workshop got all of the information I need it is time to start work on the actual project itself and to start I need to design the actual application itself.  So what I have done is I drew a few scenes in my sketch pad to show how the application is going to look scene to scene, once I had done this and was happy with what I had, I decided to move into adobe Illustrator to start designing the first challenge which I have decided is going to be the cake shop and it will be based on Mono-Chromacy.

So now that I made this decision I was deciding how to do the cake shop and what else I could do for it.  So while I was drawing the cake shop in Illustrator I was also thinking how this linked up to the story and how the story affects this place and how it ends up colourless.  While also deciding if I was going to use the same colours I had specified earlier on or if I was going to add more to the swatches.

In the end I decided that the colours I had were enough since they were the basic colours and they would still be used to create a nice image.  So with colours in mind I also needed to find the hex code for the colours to make it easier for me to find the exact colour I need for my project.
