PROJECT 2: STORYBOARDING PROJECT

OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this project is to demonstrate your understanding of the following course concepts:
1. Effectively apply relevant theories, practices, and principles when designing and developing works of digital media.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Before a designer begins work on a digital media project, it is a common best practice to first create “mock-ups”, often referred to as storyboards and/or wireframes. Both are important tools because they help illustrate a project’s design, organization, layout, and appearance. They can also be used to provide a conceptual understanding of a project to respective clients, thus providing a visual reference point for designer and client. At this point in the design process, a client can request changes before any actual work is started.
In this assignment, you will create a storyboard or wireframe for a fictitious digital media project using one of the three DMWT specializations (web technology, digital design, or motion graphics).
