IXD102 ( 30250 ) - Introduction to Communication Design. 2022-23.
This week we reviewed our Web Essay progress.
This week was focused upon our web essays. We held a class critique which allowed me to reconsider where I was going with my website.
At the time, my website looked like this:
The comments made on my progress so far were overall, pretty positive. There was an appreciation for having a side bar navigation as to a standard top bar, with the blurred background detail getting some attention too. The carousel for images was mentioned in how it was a good idea, due to the limitations of space I had. The dots to scroll between images was also regarded as successful. The use of images as a background and the structure of the Web Essay was also mentioned, but it was the very thing I have now grown to dislike.
It wasn’t working well with the amount of content I needed to display. It was just too much text, too many images to view on a smaller frame.
