Process

For this project, we were to create a single page website dedicated to our favorite artists, I've chosen Nujabes, a Japanese record producer as my main theme for my website.

Sketches
First, I sketch out a wireframe for my website using pencil and paper.

Fig 1.0 Sketch 1

Fig 1.1 Sketch 2

Fig 1.2 Sketch 3

Fig 1.3 Sketch 4

Fig 1.4 Sketch 5

After some feedback, I've chosen go on with Fig 1.1 sketch 2, as it is more mainstream.
Prototypes
I then created a lo-fi prototype based on Fig 1.1 sketch 2



I then created a hi-fi prototype.



After some considerations, I decided to change some of the design to make it more interesting.

REFLECTION

Throughout this assignment, I have faced some hardships with the coding part mainly because I was sick and cannot think straight, so I had to retry a couple of times when coding for my website. I faced some issues mostly regarding the display size on mobile devices, but the navigations work fine, the images does link to a Youtube video successfully, and the display size for the computer is correct. But in the end, I am glad that I am able to code out a website that actually functions how I want.
