For the first week of the new semester i was introduced to my new module called ‘Imaging and Data Visualisation’. I was walked through what would be expected for semester 2 and i was also shown about the two projects i will be working on throughout the next 12 weeks.
I was also introduced to something called ‘Master & Apprentice’ this were i am asked to recreate types of work that are given to. me to the best of my ability to be able to showcase my skills in each filed of design.
The first project that i will be working on is the creation of an app for a music brand, by using good UI and UX i should be able to create three good phone sized screens which would display what you would expect from a well functioning music player app.
The first thing i did to get some ideas of what could be included in the app to make it different from the rest, was to get into a group and draw a mind map and to focus our attention on anything to do with music,
Above you can see all what we came up with and expanded on, the stars that are besides some of the words are ideas that we came up with that could be detailed within the app. For example we put a star beside festivals/concerts because that could potentially be something i could mention beside a certain artist in the app with a date for when they next perform. A second one we came up with was to match the instruments to the culture of the music.
After class i began to work on the first Master & Apprentice work, the first rask i was given was to recreate some musical type icons that you would find appear in apps like Spotify or Deezer.
Here are some of the icons that i recreated.
I was actually quite happy to be back in class for semester two, it was nice to be introduced to my new module for this class and the two projects that i will be working on throughout the next handful of months. I was quite happy to hear that i am going to be making a music app as this is a new task to me and i looking forward to learning what goes into it.
