8. The final step - feedback

This is the easy bit for you - you need to check your full folder is as good as it can be - make sure every page is numbered and has your name on as you teacher will need to record where you have given evidence of the Assessment Objectives - a reminder of them below:

Unit 01 Originate ideas in response to an interactive media design brief
(L/504/0729)  Assessment criteria (highlight):
AO1: Identify the requirements of a design brief and terminology in an interactive media environment 
AO2: Give egs of a range of ideas and solutions in the context of the interactive media design brief
AO3: Explain the development of ideas
AO4: Select ideas in response to feedback, external factors and evaluation of own work
AO5: Communicate chosen ideas effectively
AO6: Illustrate the flow of an interactive idea

AO7: Select media methods available for recording development of ideas



It would be a good idea for you to read the initial brief again and what your business wanted you to create (Blog post 1) and check every little detail.  Add a memo at the start of your file to tell us what you are submitting - set out like this:

MEMO
FROM: Your name here
TO: Steve or Nina
R.E.: My ideas for your interactive media product

Dear Steve / Nina,
Here are my plans for a website to promote your company.  
A few things I wanted to highlight (writing anything here that needs explaining)
I hope you are happy with my submission and look forward to hearing from you soon. 
Sign your name

And finally hand it to your teacher and you'll receive feedback soon:


7. Creating Your site

This is the hard bit - you now use all of your planning to create your site.  You have a few options of how to create it - see 1st slide.  You MUST use your plans to inform the final product - you can add improvements but what you produce must be based on your plans.







6. Gathering your images

You will have planned images for your website - some may be taken from the internet, some should be your own.  find and add a small copy of your image - analyse why you have chosen it as shown below - follow my examples.  Please read the important notes on the final slide about image quality etc.







5.Logo, Fonts, other features and house-style

Follow instructions given on each slide to produce:


  • Your final logo design (if you haven't already) - save as a jpeg to use later on your site
  • Decide on your fonts - show examples of range of fonts
  • Design any other artwork required (e.g. special offers / banners) that may go on your site
  • Draw rough drafts of each of your pages

NOTE:  I have drawn and scanned an example of a home page for Steve's Sporting Solutions and given my comments below - you should explain all of your plans in detail.
