Our goal of this project was to recreate a website of a local Austin business that would need a new and improved site. Out of the choices, I decided to go with the business of Tribe Comics & Games because comics are a big interest of mine. I chose to keep the same color scheme but added more content to the site because the original is lacking much content. I also felt like some pages could be condensed in a utility bar to keep content unified and less confusing. My skills allowed for me to create a complete, basic website that looks more pleasing than the original, but I would like to return to this project and make it even better after learning more HTML and CSS.
Our goal was to create a field guide about anything in Austin that could be categorized. I decided to do the project on something I love about Austin, which are Arcade Games. I decided to categorize them not only by businesses, but by what kind of Arcade Games there are. These categories include Retro, Modern, Japanese, Redemption, Versus, and Pinball. The 8-bit style I chose for this project helps bring out the aesthetic feel of arcade games and this book is something a person can use out in the field if they wanted to explore arcade games not only at businesses, but even the more hidden ones around town.
For this assignment, we needed to create a poster showcasing a concept map of a certain topic. Of the topics to choose, I picked the Civil Rights Movement. My layout changed many times in the process but I was happy with the final layout I chose. I chose more of a patriotic color scheme that fits the design without being too cliche. Many of the key terms connect to others and the info-graphics help to further understand the Civil Rights Movement.
