INT3046 - Professional Practice
Unit Brief
The aim of this brief was to produce a portfolio web site to showcase my work.
It also involved contributing to the organization of the degree show.
Portfolio Web Site
For my most recent portfolio web site (this one), I decided to totally restructure it and start again. It was said by some tutors that the previous version was not of an appropriate structure as it was based around a blog format. I have now changed the layout of each section so it is much clearer and obvious what each section is.
I have kept the look of the web site clean and simple, opting for a mostly black and white appearance with hints of colours when you interact with links and flash elements. This creates a modern and stylish feel throughout with a hint of classic design by the use of a serif font.
We were asked to produce two different web sites, one for all our work and one to showcase our best work. I built my showcase web site using Flash, therefore decided to embed it within a section of my main web site as it was only one page and avoids the confusion of having two web sites.
Degree Show Contribution
Here is a list of what I have contributed to the degree show:
- HTML/JavaScript version of holding page for web site including an e-mail subscription form
- HTML/JavaScript version of final web site
- Database creation for storage of people's profiles
- Helped Matt with forms for people to submit and edit profile information
- Domain purchase and set up
- Organized lights from Robin from last year:
- 150 mile round trip to pick up and the same again to take back.
- Set up of lights
- Attended every meeting
- Supported fundraising events such as cake sale and pool/quiz night
