LECTURES

Week 1: A briefing about what the module was going to entail was what we started with. For someone who did not do any previous UI/UX designing, I was glad to learn the different keywords and what it meant to be a UX designer.

Week 2: We learned about what user personas are and how to create them. They'd be people who would hypothetically use the product we are about to design for them.

Week 3: For this week, we learnt about empathy maps and what each different section of the map means. Then we further discussed about the project details.

Week 4: This week we learnt about what a design audit is, which is a checklist companies use to ensure all their products or apps are consistent throughout in terms of style, font, colours, etc.

Week 5: For this lesson, we dived into what a User Journey Map was in order to help us with our understanding of the UX designing process.

Week 6: Class was cancelled.

Week 7: Public Holiday.

Week 8: Independent learning week.

The following weeks we had on and off lessons, and most of them was Mr. Hafiz simply telling us what we had to do for our next tasks, such as creating a concept prototype for our chosen application once we got into our groups. Then we proceeded to make a survey to see which design they liked better compared to the original app. Finally, we compiled all the information to put into a design document detailing results and findings as well as a conclusion.


INSTRUCTIONS



EXERCISES

Task 1:
Figure 1.0 The first exercise as an introduction to UX Design

For this exercise, we were told to find an object in everyday life that we found to be rather annoying or frustrating because of it's poor design. The way it is used should evoke that feeling because of said design.

Task 2:
Figure 1.1 Miro board screenshot

For the next exercise, we had to create just one user persona to help us redesign an app or website of our choice. I chose Ebay as my website and a university student who is a likely user for the site.


Figure 1.2 Task 2 continued

This is a continuation of task 2 - a matrix to further develop the user persona.

The following task was to create a user empathy map. Afterwards, we were to fill in the blanks of the project details to further help us with our proposal in order to redesign the website we chose.

Figure 1.6 User Experience Journey

The final task was to create a user experience journey so we may have a deeper understanding of how the consumers using the website thinks. Once we were done with all our tasks, we were to compile it into Notion.

MAJOR PROJECT

28.08.2023 -  04.12.2023 Haura Laiqa Naznin / 0345050 / Bachelors of Design in Creative Media Major Project INSTRUCTIONS   WEEK 1-3   For our final year project, we were given two choices: one was to either base it off of our dissertation or to do something entirely new. For me, I decided to have it related to my dissertation which was about representation. My main idea was to have a protagonist that other animated movies seem to lack, specifically hijabi representation. This made me think about including my culture into the idea and representing it through the characters and environment. After having some more thought I landed on creating an animation story concept for my final year project. For the first feedback session, I was consulted by Mr. Asrizal and he gave me some pointers to be more specific about what I wanted to represent from my culture. Was it the creatures? The people? I had to think more about that before proceeding with my idea, which he seemed f...

2023 PDW Reflection Report

 26/10/2023 PDW Reflection Report During the beginning of week 8, I was looking forward to attending the webinars that were organized by our lecturers and Mr. Izwal. The ones that I have chosen were focused on tips in the workplace and interviews as well as insights into the creative industry. One of the few companies that helped put it all together were Allianz, GSK and C47 Creative. The reasons why I chose those specifically were because I had my worries when it came to choosing jobs or internships in the future and the processes that would follow it. Interviews are very common, if you were unlucky and didn't get hired on the spot! It was one aspect that I always felt nervous about when I thought about having to do them in the future, so obtaining advice from the very professionals who conducted them was going to prove very valuable to me. During all of the webinars, I made sure to write down notes that seemed important to me and to screenshot any information that I thought could...
