Updates to Lava site
Im going to carry on improving the 'Lava' website. Not for the client project, as the deadline's passed, but for my portfolio.
Ive uploaded the site to the net on my own domain for a limited time. (http://www.greensky-creations.co.uk)
Ive added minimum height and width so it no longer scales to infinity! Ive also changed some of the margins/padding values to balance the design better.

Live Project - Oh Shiny! 2
Here's an update to the last post. Ive decided to use the following image as the background for some text elements on the website.
Ive added a box and some effects from a tutorial from http://www.tutorial9.net/ - theres a couple of effects ive not been able to muster. Im lagging due to tiredness, ya see. But I'll have anyother go at it tomorrow after Ive done some PRP work (you'll be happy to hear, Shaun!)
It's supposed to look like the windows on Microsoft Vista OS and it kinda does. - This is my first draft, as it were, so I expect an update or two.

Live Project - Oh shiny!
For the last week Ive been playing around with css - looking at other people's code on zengarden (www.csszengarden.com/) and figuring out the elements i will require. Ive recently discovered *to my relief* how to position elements - this may sound basic but every tutorial out there on css (that ive seen) deals with the very-basics and, ofcourse, websites that use css, on the web have seperate stylesheets which arn't visable in the source. Ive been searching for this answer for ages and am so pleased ive found it.
So, for the passed week Ive been staring at code alot and im pretty sick of it! So I thought id work on the design side of the site for abit.
Im currently working on the windows that will hold the main text. Ive found some good tutorials about making graphics look reflective and transparent, and Im using these while playing around in photoshop - (http://www.tutorial9.net/)
The following is some examples of what iv been working on. These would be used as the backgrounds of windows:

Client Project
Ive come across this great website http://www.deviantart.com/
Its an online community of artists work which im sure will come to be invaluable for inspiration.
Especially http://browse.deviantart.com/designs/web/ which is specifically concerned with building an online community and displaying interesting web page interfaces.

Major Client Project
I have a client for my project. Its my brother! He has his own PR and Marketing company - 'lava'. The brief is to redesign the current website to attract potential clients. The current website can be found at www.lavaonline.co.uk
The client wants a flashy website that is in some way interactive or has animationed content.
I am planning on using Flash to create the website and am in the early stages of researching the company and it's competition.

Simulated Client Project
I handed in my finished project in mid November. Feedback was ok but when I showed it to Shaun Belcher (supervisor) in the seminar the images didn't work. This was because I changed a file name before saving the project to disc. This was very un-professional as Shaun was effectively the client. In the 'real-world' I would have lost the client, or at least lost their confidence in me.
The following is a still of the webpages.

Simulated Project Brief
Theme/title “insect repellent” (how does this product work? What is it called? What does it repell and how? It can be serious, touching, funny even a spoof. Produce multimedia according to the area of study you have chosen that follows the brief above.
Web and web applications option
Design and produce a micro site and banner that informs, entertains and sells insect repellent.
I will be re-designing the website of the existing insect repellent 'jungle formular'. The purpose of this project is to create a microsite and Flash banner for Jungle Formula. The emphasis of the applications is that the insect repellent product saves lives.
Responce to Brief
What the Client Wants
The client wants a promotional microsite and Flash advertisement banner to promote Jungle Formula insect repellent.
The content of the site will largely remain the same as the existing site. A re-design of its graphic design and navigational structure will be required to accomodate the new features on the site. Jungle Formula want a well branded site with a consistant semantic structure.
The promotional flash banner advert application is to be placed on external sites. Its purpose is to direct traffic to the microsite. It must be well branded and contain some form of animation or interactivity.
What the User Needs
The user experience is the primary focus of both applications. This includes usability, navigation, aesthetic quality, semantic structure, etc. A well balanced, functional site can be achieved via the features outlined in the treatment.
The primary audience for Jungle Formula are 20-50 year-olds who are planning to go abroad near the equator. The audience would need to know how and why they should use insect repellent, about the main diseases they may become exposed to, and what to do in an emergency.
Project Requirements
Redesign
The project will completely re-design the website. The homepage is all important. It sets the expectations, structure and image for the rest of the site. The navigation menu will appear on the left of the page (previously at the top of the page). To create a visually appealing and aesthetic design suited to the content, the colour scheme used will be altered from bold over-powering primary colours, to complimentary shades.

Client Project (Module Overview)
The Context
The Client Project module (MMPR30021) is designed to help you consolidate your multimedia knowledge. It does this through providing opportunities for you to demonstrate their design and problem-solving skills. The module complements both the Personal Research Project (MMPR30020) and Successful Practice and Principles 3 (MMPR30022) modules through its emphasis on commercial and entrepreneurial practice.
In order to do this you will complete two design projects: one where you will work as a multimedia designer to solve a simulated client project (Simulated Project);
and one where you will work with a real client1 to develop a solution through the full life-cycle of a project (Live Brief). You are expected to do this through producing work within your specialisation e.g. Web or Audiovisual or Animation (this should be the same specialisation as the one that you choose to focus on for work that you create in your Personal Research Project module).
