yer agree with this....weve come up wiv some ideas 2 naviagte around the site...looking at current websites that we liked the style of...feel that we definitely need 2 sort the content out 2mo as we then know what will be going on with each page!!! still feel really confused as 2 what the content is even suppose 2 be! but we have a week 2 do this now ahhh!
GOOOOOOO GROUP!
GOOOOOOO GROUP!
Just a quick update on what I've been upto.... firstly I've been working with flash content, testing animations, trying new things and seeing what will work well. Below is an image of one of the page layouts that will have an animated map feature, I'm still working on this but it'll be completed soon.
Also i've been working on some visuals for the main environment (home page) been using illustrator to produce a rough sketchy flat colour style that lends itself well to our choice of topic.
Once i've got all our visuals together i'll begin to work them into a website format using flash, hopefully we'll be able to get the majority of the site and its content together before the deadline.

have a look at this: Aqua Teen Hunger Force follows the adventures of Meatwad, Frylock and Master Shake - three sort of fast food knock-offs - as they do things like save the world from giant rapping spiders....but it looks at seedy fastfood on the streets apparently there is also a cartoon about them aswel-says on the website that its better than south park!?

So, i spent today working on a few rough visuals of what the interface could possibly look like, getting various ideas down on page and giving thought to how to make it as interactive as possible, whist retaining the viewers interest in the site itself. Perhaps I'll experiment with some basic animations, possible roll overs etc just to get an idea of how long it'll take to produce and how well it will work.

Just read Zoe's post from tutorial notes. I think I get what's going on here, so I am going to try and do some visuals, focusing on sauces and remains of kebabs.
I think with these visuals you could create something really seedy. I really like the idea of a crime scene. I shall try and produce some strong images asap! Good hunting gang.

took a few notes from what they said today....spellng might b a bit dodge as this cruddy comp in the libery wont allow the "i" and "k" keys 2 work unless i slam them!
anyways.....
they said thnk about the options of a kebab shop eg. sauces salads etc
then vsually look at the pavements etc and how they create an envronment someone said that these resembled a crime scene!?
also the layers of the kebab have a lot vsually thnkn about the spit and a kebab stick etc
another idea mentoned was how at the begnnng of a kebab is a gd idea and seems glossy then looks seedy as ur half way through...ref 2 pics
going bac to the kebab shop he said there was a lot there vsually for example the use of menus and use of fluresent card, stars etc the went on about the use of language and how they stick paper over existin menus when the prices change
then lookng at the menu is not as it appears so the pics look nothn like wat u ach get!
then he mentoned a guy called martin parr who takes pics of ppl in kebab shops
so plan 4 monday is to experiment wth ths more visually and find a route...
hope this helps

ha ha ha ha ha that photo is superb. Myself and Tyler look like we are suffering from stunted growth, ha ha ha brilliant!
On the project front, despite my absence I am going to draw up a few layouts for what I think could work. They are just to get the creative juices flowing for a busy design weekend! I hope the tutorial gives you guys some good feedback, please let me know how you get on! Again, if there is anything you want me todo let me know.
Are there any plans for a group meeting tomorrow after the lectures?
Cheers. Davey

Hey Guys!
Just wanted to let you all know that i'll be spending tonight looking for left over fast food, should be interesting to find some good visuals of thrown away food in its environment. Been working on a few ideas for content of the site and thinking about applying a theme/atmosphere as well. Wish my luck on my fast food remnants safari.

morning!
it's kinda hard to think about visual aesthetics when we haven't collected any research material... we need to just choose one or two today i think and go away collect lots of stuff for both or which ever one u prefer and then on thursday when we look at the stuff we can see which one would be more visually satisfying lol yah?! xx

Morning gang!
I have also got a book which I feel may help us to decide on our visual style. There is a varied amount of illustration in there, both digital and contemporary! As for photo's etc I am still yet to gather them. I also have no fresh ideas, but I shall search my chest of design goodies!..........it's firmly shut at the moment though!!!!
