This week, I learned more about responsive design, such as techniques for dealing with full screen images.
Examples of techniques for dealing with full screen images we took a look on Tuesday are the good ones to come back to. The AutoSpace assignment was a good practice of how to deal with grids and fonts when it has to do with responsive design. And I can’t not to mention about flips which I’m going to use in my midterm.
Speaking of a midterm project, I think it will be a great practice of techniques we’ve been learning since the beginning of the semester. For this project, I have to build a landing page for an apparel company: “A major influencer on social media has decided to start their own line of clothing.” While doing research, I cannot stop thinking how much you should know to build a microsite, which is technically just one-page site. Research on the topic itself, content, fonts and color schemes used in fashion/apparel industry and visualizing ideas of possible microsite design layout made me feel a bit overwhelmed. At that point, I started thinking of how designers who work in this industry do their designs in a short period of time. I hope experience helps to overcome different kinds of “paranoia” (ex: “pixel paranoia”) and make design choices faster and easier.
