Today I mostly worked on getting the images I plan to use for each character’s Facebook profile picture.  This was kind of a tedious process, because I decided to do this part last.  This involved just looking up scenes from the movie on Google Images and saving the images of the characters as a jpeg […]

So far over this weekend, I’ve created the Facebook posts up until half of the movie.  One of the constraints of my tool is that it’s unable to generate some organic Facebook posts, such I’ve been taking screenshots and altering them with Photoshop.  I’d say I’m making pretty solid progress on the project, and should […]

Maddi G’s presentation on Comic Master really intrigued me, and I think it’s the interface I would like to explore further.  I’d never really come across a website that allowed you to design a comic series before, and the site seems pretty straightforward and easy to use.  It’d be a good tool for an extremely […]

What I Did: I worked on my Affordances and Constraints page, and I’m almost done.  I want to include one or two more screenshots, and maybe include a conclusion weighing the two.  I also included some critiques on how the interface used various modes of communication. Why I Did It: I wanted to finish that […]

What I Did: I started doing the “Interrogate the Basics” page for Project 2.  This involved looking at the various modes of communication on my interface, and analyzing it for its effectiveness.  I also included a video at the end detailing the process of searching, playing, and using action buttons on a specific audio file.
