GEL, and a book named The inmates are running the asylum

-

Tried to stick to the brand

Added the burger menu feature
kept it simple, and used Flat design.

User Testing!
-

Met Naomi at the whitworth

Got 7 people to user test the app
got some excellent feedback.
Asked questions from a questionnaire ( Find on blog)

Feedback
-

People were trying to swipe the app left or right

People thought the text could be darker
Some people thought the menu was a pop up, instead of a
separate page and tried to exit it.
People didn't understand burger menu.
over all thought it was well laid out & easy to use

Hang on, Change of plan.

Make my brand.
Design my own app.
Design freely.

Where.
-

DO I BEGIN?!?!

RESEARCH.

CHOOSE A FONT(S)

5 AND 3

COLOURS.

BEHIND THEM.
Pink - Romance, beauty, love, sensitivity
Blue - Security and integrity or tranquility and peace
Green - Freshness
Using pink, blue and green would be good for something like a dating site ( match.coms
logo is pink, blue, and green coincidence? i think not)

MOOD.

LOGO. THEME

BRAND.

RESEARCH.

SHAPES..
From my research, Profiles tend to have an image of the person, the image is typically in a square, or
circle.
On major social networks ( Like Facebook / Twitter ) The Image is in a Square.
Images in a triangle? This would go with the theme! Risky, as it is not Typical But may look good.

WIREFRAMES

testing.

FEEDBACK.
- Do not enclose information such as Phone number ( User would not be happy with that if it was
themselves)
- Does not get moving images on the Location page
- Understands icons and pages well.
- things contact and About me info page should me merged.
- Likes the animated skills page. analyse

DESIGN.
Designing the app.

Remember me?

testing. two.

FEEDBACK.
-

Menu should be coloured in when selected

Some pictures should be more clear
Menus should be scrollable / Map too

reflect.
-

At the start of the year, it was my aim to Create a Mobile application, that is successful, usable and can help improve
my chances of employability Goal and aims fulfilled. (I have gone through a list of steps, and a design-rollercoaster to
ensure this)
- I Kept to traditional User Experience methods through out the process, such as User Testing, and Prototyping
Proved that i can work with a client for a long period of time and stick to brands ( This is a useful skill for
corporate companies)
used early march event to my advantage
Developed my own design. This enabled me to flourish as a designer, discover and improve my employable talents.
