Round 3: visual comps

Round 3 of my visual comps. Moved the container bricks to the side and constructed a new logo. Also a new background texture has been applied as well as a few new photos. These were all improvements that were mentioned in my last critique.

Project 3: Final Wireframes/Comps

Other final solutions to the wireframe continued...

Project 3: Final Wireframes/Comps 2

These are the revised versions of my previous wireframe sketches. I tried to simplify the navigaton while adding some dimensionality to support my structure mood board. Also, I changed the definitions to a scroll view along with hyperlinks and rollover images to support the information.

Find & Share

This site is great. I can't think of a better way to promote new artists and other better known artists. Just choose an artist or song, and the site will compile a radio station with artist similar to the one selected. Its perfect for people who are tired of all their music and are looking for something new. I have already found tons of the music.

Project 3: Mood Boards and Wireframe Feedback

Mood Board Feedback

Lots of structural potential in the dynamic mood board incorporating dynamic angles in a very structural manner.

Nice color combinations in the graphic mood board. Try incorporating some cooler colors into the composition.

Wireframe Feedback

Simplify navigation to not include animation at the development stage. Think of that after the structure is refined.

Choose a part of the structure to activate w/ imagery or text ( red-orange shape. ) Do not just have arbitrary shapes that do not directly effect the content.

Allow the information containers to assume the shapes that are in the site. Not just a box of text.

Maybe incorporate some cool colors to draw attention to something that is more important but not to call to much attention away from the other information. (Hyperlinks maybe.)
