Assignment 3: Week 11 – 12

I was a little stuck between a tea party for witches or a prom for supernatural creatures ( or even a zombie body parts auction my brain is poot). I went with the prom in the end!

Selected Event

Prom for Supernatural Creatures

Target Audience User Persona

I created two user personas – one specific to the event and the other is a real life user persona.

Moodboard

Since I went with the prom idea, I looked back to my unused moodboard from Assignment 2 that I really liked and found would fit the event really well. I wanted the prom to be dark, but still ultimately fun, teen and wholesome!

 

Research & Mind-Map

I dumped a bunch of things onto the mind-map and tried to see what I could use – since the creatures and their representations would set the tone of the party and items.

I imagined myself in the shoes of the student council/staff in order to try to figure out what assets would be needed for a prom… and did lots of research since I went to poly and not JC, so I’ve never really gone to a prom myself. (I will live vicariously through this project I guess)

Conceptual Visuals (Pencil Comps)

I decided to stick with these 4 items for the finals:

1. Sticker Pack (Prom Favour)
2. E-Invite (Gif, because moving items look magical!!!)
3. Prom King Voting Poster
4. Prom Queen Voting Poster

Honestly I’d make all the assets move and breathe if I could but I’ll do the e-invite first… and see how about the rest. :’)

I started working on the stickers first since it would be the easier asset to use to visualize what a school of supernatural creatures would be like – their clubs, facilities and space!

Here are some work-in-progress items:

Got some feedback from Lisa that it might be better to simplify since the details may be lost at a smaller sizing (smoke strips/claw), so I removed them and strove to do the other stickers in a similar vein.
