STATEMENT OF INTENT (CFE)
Charissa ONG/ 12234137 / BIMD1105-1
Topic: Responsive
Portfolio Website
Competition Chosen: AWWWARDS
Key Ideas
|
The key idea of this project is to create a responsive portfolio
website which showcases my past work in an effective and memorable way; with
it also being adaptable on all media devices.
|
About
|
This portfolio website would encompass the work that I have done
while show casing my ability to code an effective website with practical and
attractive layouts. This site would be able to be viewed on various platforms
of media, as it will be responsive. It's layout would switch between desktop,
tablet and mobile according to the devices' sizes the website is viewed from.
It will also be coded in HTML5, therefore it will be compatible with most
browsers.
|
Issues
|
1.
Portable
devices like tablets and smart phones are commonly used to browse the
internet. The different sizes of these devices would mean that the way users
are viewing the media, are in different forms. How could information be
arranged effectively within a smaller area compared to computer monitors?
2.
HTML5
is compatible with most browsers. Unlike Flash sites which are not viewable
on certain devices, HTML5 websites are universal and could be viewed without
plug-ins or extra downloads.
|
How it relates to multimedia
|
Websites are a form of multimedia where it requires the interaction
between users and digital media. They achieve to communicate and transmit
ideas, knowledge and information to a wide range of users worldwide.
|
Research Question
|
What is the importance of responsive and dynamic media? Do we live
in a individualistic world where it strives to provide preferable, personal
content to meet the needs of the unique, demanding public?

Their Experience with the “CFE
project”
|
First, they would access the link to my portfolio via my Behance
account or my namecard.
They would be able to view a showreel of my work via embedded video or click straight into my website.
The users are then free to explore my previous work in the links
disguised as thumbnails.
If they are interested in contacting me, they could leave their
contact with a short message on my website at the 'Contact Me' section.
|
How it relates to existing skills
and knowledge
The existing knowledge that I currently possess would act as a foundation
to what I would do for this project. So far, I have executed 3 HTML5 websites,
(one being a HTML5 game) for assignment purposes. My knowledge of coding
websites and graphic design are at average as well.
How it addresses new skills and
learning
Since this would be an individual project, one of the new skills that
I would acquire would be a further advancement on the understanding of HTML5 coding.
I would also need to improve on the UX and interface designing for different
platforms of media. With different sizes of media for my website to adapt, I
would need to think and plan the layouts for each of them. Other than that, I
would have a deeper learning on the behaviours of users. Questions would be
asked; like what would make them excited to use it? How would they remember the
experience?
Graphical wise I would also
like to explore and reinvent my own personal style which could signify my
personality and interests.
