Midterm Presentations are an opportunity to show your works in progress to the class. Students should be prepared to present a 10-minute overview of their web site development so far. This should include a site map or sketch of the elements to be included and the basic navigation paths. In class, I've compared the site map to an architectural floor plan, where the home page is like a foyer with branching options for movement from there. Also, at the midterm presentation, students should have a majority of the content for inclusion in the site prepared to show. This might include :
• core photography, design or drawing for the home page and overall look of the project
• designs for navigation elements (links)
• writing (stories, summaries, non-linear narratives, descriptions)
• visual images in .jpeg, .gif or .png formats, for example character sketches, background elements, photos.
• completed animations or keyframe images for animations
• multimedia files including audio and video to be included
• a prototype page or more than one page
• a list of questions and considerations -- things you need extra feedback about
These materials can be presented from your web sites or from any form of digital storage media, for example CD Rom, removable Flash drives, USB memory keys or on DVD. You may also bring in printed matter such as drawings and photographs if necessary. You may use PowerPoint if this is helpful to present your material.
If you are unable to present your midterm this week, please be prepared to do so next week (March 5). Any questions? Let me know in class.
Best,
Judith
