Pooyan Amiri Primary Colours Blue background on every page with the text on them being white. Contrasting Colours White. Font type and size White Calibri (Body) size 11 font for all texts used on the website. Example: Oz intro Proposal Task at hand Our design company has been approached and asked by OZ Backpackers to create for them a fully interactive and animated website for their company. OZ backpackers offer economical accommodations for backpackers interested in backpacking in Australia. This brief showcases what we have been asked to do, what our design company will be making for Oz Backpackers (the interactive website), what the different kinds of pages we are going to use for the webpage and the content of each page. In addition, we will also be displaying what target audience the product will be aimed at, showing why the audience has been chosen and what resources will be required, the project deadline and we will also be talking about legal issues, copyright and confirmation. Pages and contents The product to be produced is the interactive website. We are aiming to add as much interactivity as possible into the website in order to boost the viewing experience for the viewers. The website is going to contain a main interactive introduction page with the topics home, book, contact and about us present in the navigation bar, the main context of the introduction page is to welcome you to the website with an interactive animation that is relevant to Oz Backpackers. The home page is going to include the same format for the navigation bar and is going to have a main text box in the middle talking about Oz 8
Pooyan Amiri backpackers and their accommodations, on the side right next to the text box in the middle is going to be a slideshow showing some of Australias most attractive places to visit which could be potentially included in your backpacking visit to Australia depending on which part of Australia you are going to backpack in. The bookings page is going to include the different packages available from Oz backpackers with a brief description of the package, a picture that showcases that package and also the price. After selecting your desired accommodation package you will be taken to the actual booking section of the booking page, this section includes boxes of information that is need to be filled in by the viewer, the boxes are going to be divided into three sections; personal information, contact information and terms and conditions agreement. The personal information section is going to include boxes such as first name, last name, date of birth and sex. The contact information section is going to contain boxes such as email address, contact number, home address, country/state and postcode. The terms and conditions agreement section is pretty self-explanatory as it include the terms and condition and whether you agree to them or not. Making the product successful To make the site successful I will have to make sure everything works on all pages. I will ensure that all the links are all active and link to the right pages. I will also check that images have the correct source and that they are displayed efficiently. To make the site more alluring I would require the use of more resource types. The first type would be the use of video. A video would be good to include on the website to show customers more about what Australia is all about. Not everyone will have the requirements to run the video so I am going to include something which doesnt require as much streaming and a little less complex audio file. I could give the opportunity for visitors to download the files as well in case they are incapable of streaming the video. To ensure security for the customer when they have selected their preferred backpacking accommodation I am going to make sure that all their contact and address details stay with just the site and no one else. All information will stay confidential. I will state this on the site so customers are aware of that. 9
Pooyan Amiri Target audience The main target audience that I am going to appeal to is going to be male and females between the ages of 18-25. I am going to be appealing to this particular age group due to them being the most with free time on their hands as they are done with school and college and the fact that they are the ones that are keen on backpacking and seeing the world. If the main target audience that Im appealing to is going to be male and females between the ages of 18-25 then I will have to design the site in a way to appeal and suite male and females between the ages of 18-25. To do this I will have to think carefully about colours, the theme and most importantly the style of the text. I will be using a light blue header but then simply using black text on a white/silver background. Ethical and Legal considerations My website will definitely not include any offensive material to race, gender, religion, sexual orientation or disability. No bad language and no reference to drugs and/or people in respect of libellous content. Offending the customers will put them off from visiting my site again and also from purchase so therefore it is my job to make the site friendly and as welcoming as possible. Copyright is a set of legal rights that rise in literary and artistic work. These set of laws forbid anyone to copy the artistic work that youve done, say for example a painting you have painted which is your own creation and you havent copied of anyone, and in this case the website. You now have a set of rights in that work that you have done, these set of rights last until you die and 70 years after from the end of the calendar year in which you have died. However, if this work has been made available to the public by an authorised person that holds the rights to that work then that certain piece of work would not have any copyright laws on it. The set laws talked about above are: 10
Pooyan Amiri It is an offence to perform any of the following acts without the consent of the owner: Copy the work. Rent, lend or issue copies of the work to the public. Perform, broadcast or show the work in public. Adapt the work. Deadline To create the site it would take me roughly around 10-15 hours of creating time. Gathering resources would be my first task for the site. Getting the images together, thinking of animations that would beneficial and relevant to the website, this would take 4-5 hours of my time. The rest would be constructing the site together and typing up the text links. 2 weeks would be a good estimate for the creation of the website. However, the deadline that has been given to us by Oz Backpackers is the 26th of November 2012. 11
