I made the decision to go all out and create the website's design and programming for our first portfolio review. I started by making my code from scratch after creating my design in Figma. I made a few different websites that would work with my idea and style, but I wasn't sure which one to use. I therefore made the decision, after much consideration, to give up my prior designs and concentrate on one. After the website was complete, I started adding simple JavaScript and animations to make it interactive for the user.
My goal was to create a simple website that was clean, clear, and well-organized rather than overloaded with information. When you enter the website, the eye is drawn to the major content.
We began by creating a design in Figma and testing several color palettes while adhering to the brand guide that was provided to us. We began developing the prototype after agreeing on the following pages: Home, About Us, Contact, Partners, and Members.
I worked on the partners page, about us page, and I tried to make the prototype interactive and consistent with the style of my teammate's pages. After creating the prototype, we tested it and presented it to the client.
For four weeks, I was able to focus on the website and code every page that I had created in Figma prototype. The project was a two-person project, therefore there was a lot of content to create. I began with the partners and about us pages. I had some reservations about the partners page because I didn't like how the design turned out the first time I created it, so I decided to redesign the page in Figma and then code it.
After I redesigned the partners page and received feedback from my teammate and several students, I continued to work on it until I finished the same week I started.
After finalizing the Partners page for the website, I began coding the About Us page. Of course, everything went according to plan, and I stuck with the initial design I created. All of the information I gathered came directly from Lighttown speakers, and I included the place where they give their presentations.
For the Contact Page Initially, it was not the page that I created, but when I realized that I had already completed my two pages, I decided to begin with this one as well to avoid wasting time and do further work. I coded the page and included three sections: Full Name, Email, and Message, which allowed visitors to the website to ask specific questions.
I was very interested in learning blender and creating things for the gaming business after our class with Josh. The first lecture was about building a basic house. So, after I arrived home, I started building my first house, which went out acceptable for a first try.
A few days later, after creating my first house in Blender, I realized that I enjoy it and want to make more things. I decided to build another house, this time more detailed. So I used the skills I gained in class and a guide to build a second house.
I spend some time in the blender creating a small project for myself because I love using the blender and I'm a huge fan of Tesla. I choose to build the Tesla CyberTruck. Naturally, in order to succeed, I watched some tutorials. Initially, I began by creating the object and the Tesla's shape. Following that, I began to precisely model the car's shape. While it's not exactly the same, I believe I did a decent job for five hours.
