Researching websites and events, linked to design and content.
S.E.O (Search Engine Optimisation) research
Self explanatory but need to also cover how its implemented with WordPress
User testing
I did this on one of the projects in first year using Skype and a screen recorder. It worked perfectly and allowed me to make no gestures or say anything that may effect the subjects point of view before the test. I will be undertaking this in the same way this year. Another advantage was the fact I could use friends from all over the country, all studying different degrees etc.
Costs of WordPress
Plugins, themes and anything else needed to run the website. Is it sustainable and cheap enough to keep using? Or would it be better to code from scratch?
Produce a responsive website for an event using WordPress
Obvious what you have to do here...
All preliminary work
Possibility to come up with the event and brand it entirely. Also WIREFRAMES need to be produced. This will be my biggest focus I think. Layout isn't currently my strongpoint, so lets make it one.
Event selection
Research to be done on event genre, and viable information needs to be produced to back up your design choices. Why did you do this? Who's it for? Blah blah blah. Target audience has to be pin pointed.
Produce information architecture
Something of a bane but it will be engaging. I would like to make a visual information architecture.
