Class Project 21 - Finish your design
Hi, everyone. It's the last project. Ok. Project 21. I know uh there was a few of them but I hope you found them useful in the fact of like cementing some of the knowledge that you learned in the videos, actually making your own thing, which is exciting. And what I want you to do is just tidy it up. Ok. Everyone can take this to their own level. Ok? You can just quickly knock up a desktop version. That's perfect and send me a screenshot of both the kind of like finished ish mobile and the finished ish desktop version. Ok? And, but if you want to take a little bit further, what I want you to do is, you know, it's been quite systematic so far, you know, do this, do this? I want you to go look at your brief, look at your persona and say what pages do I not need here? What pages are missing, you know, from, from my persona Sarah. And where was it? Um So, you know, I feel like the this kind of like environmentally. Um and you know, that sort of stuff is something I haven't really addressed ...
I've done like some basic stuff with like we use recycled plastics, but I feel like that persona is gonna need more depth for that. So I'm probably gonna need like an exploded view of when this is click read more to get into like how materials are sourced, our approach to kind of our supply chain and probably even things like, you know, our values as a company. Ok? Like where we stand, where we're going, something like that is probably missing from this to address my persona, yours might be different. It might need, you know, ingredients list or supporting maybe products or maybe it needs videos or some sort of testimonials, reviews, that type of thing, just have a little think about what you might, you don't have to go too far. But although exciting as a checkout is, it's probably not, you know, it's part of the flow, it's part of my task flow definitely, but it's not something that, you know, uh I feel like, yeah, there's other things I could do for this particular persona to really engage with her. So think of one or two extra pages that would be awesome, but again, optional, not everyone's going to have the time and capacity to do it, but the people that do it's that kind of stuff that will make uh this this particular product more meaningful and a better portfolio piece. So if you are going to turn it into something for your portfolio again, totally optional. OK? You might uh look to create something for a portfolio, you might have a portfolio, so just get it in there. OK? I'd love to see it in there. OK. Uh Mocked up and when I say mocked up, you know, just your wireframe is kind of nice screenshots kind of laid out, show your brief, your persona, the wire frames can have your finished designs and when you are going out to portfolio, OK? You want to be including not just your final designs, but like here's the brief, here's my assumptions from that brief and here is my wire frames. OK? That I used to test my assumptions. Here's some learnings that I got from both testing the wire frames and maybe your final version if you didn't, haven't done any testing, OK? You might look to test even your final design. OK? With it could be your significant other, your kids, your friends, you could find somebody on one of our Facebook groups to help do some testing. OK? And yeah, list out what you thought was gonna happen, what the results were, any amends you did and any final conclusions when you are describing this don't like it's not a real project. I know case study is a nice way of putting that. Don't say this wasn't a real project. OK? But a case study is a nice way of exploring meaning that it was like an instructor led um exercise or at least there wasn't uh you know, a real client case study. Good way of saying that now there isn't any like perfect. This is what it should look like. OK, go and have a little look, do a bit of it doesn't take long to find a design that you like in terms of a layout of a UX project. So do a Google search for UX portfolio examples. OK? There's many on Dribble and Google and there's lots out there, find something that you feel fits with your project and your style, you might already have one and just lay that up and I'd love to see it as well. So it might just be the uh screenshots of your mobile and desktop frames. But for others who are taking it a little bit further, I'd love to see it as a portfolio piece. OK? And if you've got questions and you're new to it, OK? Post the portfolio piece and say, hey, this is what I'm thinking of adding to my portfolio. What's missing, what can I update? OK. It's great to get feedback and kind of get past that little imposter syndrome that you will inevitably have getting started in a new field. OK. So Facebook group is amazing for it. So is the linkedin group. But even if you don't want critical feedback, just send it up, I'd love to see what you actually made, what actual product you got, make sure you share the brief that you used and I wanna see what you ended up doing all that. Is it for our projects? I will see you in the next video I'm gonna see you live. Get out from behind the screen. See you in a sec.
