Envision Limerick
this site the web

Christmas Hols

I'm currently studying hard, and will be programming this week. I am going to resume my project work next week where I will finalize the website structure and design and then go on to implementing it!

Logos


Stiching Photos

This week I have been taking more photo's of locations around Limerick. I have stiched together the shannon docks scene in Photoshop- It turned out well. I have also been looking at tutorials for adding photos from the user by way of an xml doc. I have the code of mock pre-loader done, just have to do the graphics of it yet.

I will be finializing the website layout and storyboards over the long weekend (as well as studying for the exams).

Design & Research Presentation & Interface design Ideas





The project has taken a slight turn in the way I visaulized it, the website will now be a competition website where the user can still vote but they can also upload their own creations.cool photo

Interface Idea prototype

Made a scene interface today with the king johns castle panorama photo, It basically scrolls from left to right when the user rolls over the edges of the screen. I also made some animations to interact with within the photo(movie clip)-all using flash. Getting back into the hang of flash!! :)

Research Report Handed Up

Handed up my research report today, going to start designing my interface storyboards for next week and put together some other ideas I've just had in my head.

Pictures taken and some Interface design ideas


Took some photos of Limerick city today and yesterday, I really got a feel for how the website will now look based on the pictures, I have decided to take panorama photos so the user can scroll from left to right in the scene.

No pics taken yet!!

I was hoping to take photos of limerick during the mid-term while the weather was good- but it wasn't. The next sunny day we get........

Project Proposal Submitted!

Submitted my final project proposal today. I got feedback from seamus and pat - I got the go-ahead and they advised me to make it as interactive as possible and convey how people will live their lives in the future also.

Expected outcomes

On completion of this project I expect to have a full working interactive 3D website. It will be easy and fun to use and involve the user as much as possible. The website will contain original audio and video content and will be easily accessible ( ie. browser compatibility and connection speed).

I aim to:
• Complete a working website with a good design layout and an easy to use navigation concept that is conventional yet striking and fun to use.

• Complete a working website where the user is well informed about what exactly they are seeing (also in a fun way and avoiding information overloading) and will have positive feelings about Limerick city when they leave the site.

• Complete a working website that children as well as adults can use.

• Complete a working website that allows the user to sign up and update/vote for what they think the future of Limerick city holds.

• Complete a working website that has audio and video elements as well as 3D graphics and text.

Inital Project Proposal

My project is going to be a website about the future landscape of Limerick city in the year 2100. This will include social and economic aspects as well as architecture and climate changes. The website will be composed largely of photographs of the existing Limerick which I will modify to look like the new future Limerick (based on theories and expert opinion) The user can select on a 'scene' in Limerick city and view how it may look in the future, the user can construct/select/vote for variations and submit them to the website so the website will be constantly changing based on user input.
