On Monday, the design team shared the banner images with the Frontend team. I had most of the banner images on my usb drive, and I gave the banner images (which are intended to be used on the other pages of the website) that I had to the frontend team so that they could have them to add to the current website. We worked on the team’s contribution document in class. I read the design team’s work blogs to gather information for this contribution document.

On Monday, I showed the design team the images that I had cropped over the Thanksgiving break. We figured out the size of the banner and the size of the images. This allowed us to crop and resize the images to the correct size. I then took the volunteer image that we decided on and I added the text “Volunteer” to the image. I used the same type style that was used in the mockup design. I also provided Chris with my cropped and retouched donation image so that he could add the text to that image.

Last weekend, I received the photos that Tyler sent to the design team. There were thirty photos to look through. I picked out fifteen photos that I thought would work well on the website. The photos that I chose were the photos that showed group activities. I also picked out a few good shots of some individual kids.

Last weekend, I was busy making some more mockup designs. I made modifications to the original mockup one design that Tyler created (Google doc’s title “mockup design 2”). Most of the modifications that I made to this design were arrangement and layout changes. I also used the same color schemes that I had used on the first mockup on this modified mockup. I also created two more mockup designs (Google doc’s title “mockup design 3”). One of the mockup designs that I created was based off of a more traditional website layout. I created another mockup based off of the one that I created.

This is the first week of the project. The design team has been very busy with creating mockups, color comps, and communicating with the front end team. Tyler has done an excellent job with communicating and keeping our team on schedule.
