Thesis 2: Module 8

-

This week I did some updates on module 7's work. I experimented with Adobe Dimension and created the event sign in an environment. I incorporated a couple of subtle "Texas" elements which I might change around depending on feedback from this week's user testing. I'm a bit unsure about the outdoor photo I used since I'm not sure if it's "San Antonio" enough. However, I'm not sure if there's any events happening downtown nowadays to take pictures. 

I plan to have my user testing done this week with my focus group from this thesis journey. I'm going to do this via zoom; giving them the visual system ahead of time and to discuss on a given date later this week. I may also include and previews of rough packaging and app to send them.

When it comes to affordances, I want to create a positive user experience with all of the deliverables. With the app, I want to create and easy and thoughtful buying experience not seen in typical CBD sites. AR will come into play with the app and packaging, which will help consumers visualize the product without leaving their home. 

Aside from using primarily digital materials, when creating the packaging I want to keep in mind sustainability. The products will have either a way to recycle, be biodegradable, or reusable. I plan to use materials that safely house my CBD product while also keeping the environment in mind. 

The most interesting things I've learned this module is Adobe Dimension. I'm learning it for another class, but I'm also incorporating it in this class too. It makes me more aware for the environment surrounding my deliverables and how I can present it.

TFIs (New) CBD Services Fact: CBD stores are increasing in San Antonio, TX. Problem: There is an abundance of CBD stores and products to choose from that it gets overwhelming and become less convenient for consumers to shop.  Goal: Through graphic design, I plan to design a way to help shoppers be more educated about the CBD products in their area while also being mindful of their accessibility to them.

Thesis 3: Module 10

This week, I worked on a few "house keeping" things from my deliverables. This included transferring the files from my temporary laptop to my computer and organizing the files one what's needed to be mocked up. Upon seeing what was left, I realized that some of the deliverables had the wrong website and so I was going through each deliverables to make sure it's correct. Upon doing that I also found some inconsistent typography. This was like a domino effect of edits I found. I recorded myself speaking about my deliverables in the PDF presentation. This presentation will go after my Thesis video presentation. I'm thinking the structure will go something like:  1) Thesis Video 2) Thesis Presentation (app video demo within it) 3) Question/Anser section I'm not sure if this is correct, but I'm hoping to find out more in the upcoming weeks. Going through my presentation has helped me see what structure to do my presentation and how I need to get used to talking

Thesis 3: Module 8

This past week in module 8, I've been trying to get re-organized in my new set up on a PC laptop while my computer is still in the shop. Some of my files got lost, including process works from Thesis 1. I'm thinking of ways to look for those files or how to fill in the missing pieces in my process book.  Organizing my final presentation PDF, and seeing the mock-ups back to back has helped me visualize my system's components and find ways to present them with more sophistication. For example, the app mock has been something I've been struggling with this semester since most online mock-ups don't fit well with the look of 210 confeccion. So, I think I'm going to create my own mock with the iPhone being an illustrative outline. I think my social media ads are shaping up, I found an ad mock (Ad Parlor) which I've done but the animation wasn't working due to the browser I was using. I'll tinker with it some more this module. I also worked on the rough vid
