Progress

As planned for my interface, I started to illustrate the splash shape in Adobe Illustrator. This splash icon will be the button icon for my web. The reason of splash shape for the button is because to represent the water splash or a drop of colour on top of the page. This is the progress of making the splash and other icon which is to be placed in my website.

This splash shape was firstly drawn on a sheet of paper, then it was scanned and pasted into the illustrator for tracing and filling colour in it.

Additional small splashes was added and placed to make it much bigger and to be more realistic.

Next, moving on to the next step is to make buttons that will be placed for the medium and the quality of the painting. Same process were used for this as used for the splash button.

After that, all the files were saved into Jpeg and Png format. Saving it into such a format will be easier to be attached in the Flash.

Below are the Jpeg and Png files for the website:

Design Systems and Services

Wireframe

Wireframe is a table or flow chart that shows the process in simplified form. This is an outline or guideline for the system designer. Other than that, it will be a reference table for the investors or other superior if we work for a programming company. Wireframe is a reference for the designer in a way to avoid the design er to be leftover or skipped over the important features and part of the design system. This method are used in all the programming and system designing companies. For my App called 'Friddal' below is the wireframe in a very simple form;

This is the progress of designing the wireframe:

Concept Board

After finalising my concept Board, I decided to that my background lay out can be adapted as how my concept board look like. Hence, techniques of paintings are also to be concern in my website. There are 3 types of Medium can suitable for the Buncho Water colour. The Mediums are 'Wet on wet', 'Wet on dry' and 'Dry and Dry'. Moving on to the finalised concept board, the Jpeg file of my concept board is ;

Concept board

Concept board is a start up or conceptual ideation of what we are about to do. It can be manipulated or adapted from difference resources or can be designed with interpersonal skills. For this task of promoting a brand in the Multimedia Design New Technologies module, Buncho Water Colour is my subject brand. So i have a concept of using paintings with different effects and tones to be the interface basic.

At the beginning, I started to see images in Google based on painting with tones and different effects, few selected images was taken to fit it into my concept board.

Starting the concept board in the Adobe Illustrator, i used the images to just fit in place to get what i wanted.

These are the work flow of designing the concept board for my Web lay out. The concept board is to be a start up idea for my website. This will allow me to get more inspired with sample paintings works that can help me to explore more about the lay out.
