The purpose of the app is to allow visitors to enjoy a comprehensive self-guided tour of the gallery. When a user opens the app on a smartphone or tablet and holds it in front of any artwork or location in the gallery, a guide's voice will be heard and related text will appear on the screen.
BRAINSTORM SKETCHES: fill a spread (two pages) in your sketchbook with whatever you saw at the art gallery during our field trip. Sketch artworks, people, architecture and early stage ideas for your app screen designs (UI or User Interface)
Here are a few examples from last year's field trip:
The two brainstorm sketch pages go in the Sketchbook Thirteen dropbox.
THUMBNAIL STAGE: You are designing four thumbnails - the front page (or opening screen) of the app, plus three other 'views' a visitor might typically see, based on your sketches and photos from our field trip to the AGH.
Two of your screen designs should be of artwork you saw in the gallery.
The other two screens should be of locations in the gallery sketches in two-point perspective. Include at least two people (or more if you like) in each of the location views.
You can use any of your preferred sketches for the opening screen - location or art sketch - or use more than one image if that's where your creativity takes you. here are some examples of work done by students last year:
As in the examples above, your thumbnail designs should include branding (the AGH logo) as well as text/type relevant to the content of each screen image. For example, if the screen image is a location, the text should describe that location and (possibly) where it leads. If the screen image is a piece of art, the text should include the artist's name, the title and the date of the piece.
Visit the Art Gallery of Hamilton website to gather information you may want to include in your screen designs.
The template below is a 'frame' for your four thumbnail sketch designs.
This page of thumbnail sketches goes in the ISA #3 dropbox.
Final Concept Sketch:
For the final concept sketch, draw a full page view of someone using your app in a gallery setting. The view of the gallery should be in two point perspective, as in this example sketch shown below:
Show a minimum of two people in your setting, one being the app user:
Showing more than two people would be even better!
Add titling information to your sketch:
All text elements must be hand-drawn. DO NOT use computer generated type.
