P6 evaluation

In this document I will be evaluating David Hynd's tour and I will be give my thoughts on what the tour was like and I will review what I thought of his tour.

David's tour was very smooth in the transition between links on the information and the information that was given was very clear to read and is at the quality of that of the Media Department and the smoothness of the complete tour is at top quality. The logo's and the colours of the backgrounds are pretty smart and pretty cool the way that the colours of the vines intertwine with each other, the Green and Black colours go very well together. The visual presentation of Davids tour is an excellent form of creativeness and with the added effect with the "directors cut" made it seem that it is for the media department and it stays throughout the tour. All of the media elements are appropriate because it fully fits in with his chosen department and the smoothness that it produces makes it even more appropriate and the transition the prove needed for the appropriateness of the department. From when viewing upon Davids tour I believe that it is completely fit for purpose because it completely goes in with his department and it is very smart of how he applied what he applied to his tour and I also believe that it works without any errors (besides the videos that he placed into the tour), also the colour scheme that he produced for his tour is completely and strictly fit for purpose and is completely professional for his chosen department, I believe that Davids tour is very easy to use and to work and also it is not confusing in the slightest because everything is interactive. The Image below shows that Davids videos didn't quite work properly but other than that all of the tour works properly and is very professional mainly because of the way it is laid out and the way that it is presented.

The amendments that I would say, would be: the videos will need to be embedded on to the tour, at the end of the tour when it fades away it doesn't go back to the start so it's a possibility bring it back to the start by using a button, also there is a change that he could use the panorama, could use more images or more multi-media, possibility that you could include some music (to liven things up slightly), also David could get some images of the media teachers so that the people that are using his tour can see what teachers are in the department

P3 legal requirements

In my Virtual Tour I have made my own music which I made by using "Garageband" also I took my own pictures and for the text I used the Text from the Kingswood School Website but I rewrote most of the text that I included in this tour. In the Pictures that I took the people in those pictures knew full well that I was taking those pictures. None of the above has been plagiarized and I had full permission to take the pictures that I needed and for the music that I created it doesn't come into breach of any copyright law because it is my own work. But for the text that I have Included http://www.kingswoodschool.com/page_viewer.asp?page=ICT&pid=58 and this link goes to the place in which I got the necessary information from.

P5 testing

I have completed my first draft of virtual tour and I have included music which caused me some problem as in the music wouldn't place past a certain frame but I have managed to solve this problem. I solved this by inserting a "key frame" into each of the beginning slots in the script then inserting the necessary sound that I wanted to put into the tour and now it works without a problem. I have also included forwarding button onto the "Home" section of this tour, the screenshot below shows that I have included a button into my tour and that it works properly in the before and after effect.  

The screenshot below shows that I have included transitions into my tour and it works to the full extent that I wanted it to and eventually these images will disappear off the screen 

The screenshot below shows another transition but with all of the images (that I took myself) and placed then into a gallery with all of the image in a messy state then eventually they tidy up 

I have created links onto the buttons in which allows the user to go to that specific section of the tour and every time the user clicks onto the "home" button music will play but when the user clicks onto another section then the music would stop.

M1 improvements unit 43

I have chosen the black and purple colour scheme because I believe that those two colour's go together in the department that I am doing. Also the improvements that I have made is that even though I have changed the background colour I have also included a logo into this tour. This would meet the users requirements because it would be easy access for those who will use this tour and it will have all the necessary information and images that will be crucial for those who like IT. The font size and style would be Verdana (body) with the size ranging from 12 - 28 this would be because people who cannot really see that well but they will be able to see the heading of what section of the tour that they are in because of the size of the lettering and I will be including images into each section of the tour so the people who are visually impaired can see what is happening and with the colour of the background it would make the images standout even better and it is every eye-catching (in a different sense).

House style

storyboard

video was originally meant to go into the idea

p2 prototype

The changes that I have made to my Prototype is that I was originally going to add videos but I removed the idea from my storyboard because I wouldn't of had enough time to complete the video and embed it into my tour
