Activity 1 : Marketing - Create your own promotional music video (for free
Activity 2 : Multiple formats
The page of the normal facebook website doesn't fit in iphone, therefore the user has to scroll around to view the contents on the website.
List serveral other websites which have dedicated iphone versions.
- Hotmail
- Gmail
- Sydney Morning Herald
- PayPal
The amount of contents that would be in the iphone version website, also the fonts, the color, the pictures, the video, those are the aspect that the developer must consider before developing the website.
Activity 3 : Choosing Colors
Color theory is set of rules used for color mixing and color combinations.
The differences between harmony schemes - monochromatic, complementary, analogous & triadic are
- Monochromatic uses single color
- Complementary uses two colors that are opposite to each other in the color wheel
- Analogous uses two colors that are adjacent to each other in the color wheel
- Triadic uses three colors that are equally spaced around the color wheel
- The color scheme it belongs to is the split complementary color schemes
- The reason I chose this color is because it is not too bright which doesn't affect user's eyes too much. There isn't too much color to look at and therefore very comfortable to look at.
