The Brief
The Book. (Part 3: Digital Book)
Duration of Assignment
3 Weeks (Briefing on Week 9)
DEADLINE
Week 12 (21 Jun 2016)
Description
In this final project, you will be required to adapt the printed book you have designed for the purpose of on-screen reading. The design of the digital Book will be dependent on the device it will be read from or the type of format used; ePub/PDF/HTML. Presently, most digital books are in the ePub/eBook format, which is adaptable across devices. However, this format is only available in Adobe CC. We shall strive to explore and decide on an appropriate format. Your input here is vital.
One very important area to focus on is navigation between pages; this has to be well thought through, as the user interface must not be an obstacle to seamless reading.
Note: Project 3 is an attempt to work on methods that are developing as we speak, so as your lecturer I too am learning these new features, with project 3 our classroom will effectively be a laboratory. Even so, we shall strive to produce work that is of good standards.
Requirements
The student will adapt the designs from the printed format without loosing the identity and style of the said in the digital book. The final work will be uploaded onto the respective e-portfolios and printed out in thumbnail formats for the hardcopy portfolio.
Submission
1. All gathered information (failures, successes, epiphanies, sketches, visual research, printouts, websites, images, charts, etc.) documented logically and chronologically in the A4 Clear Sheet folder. The works must be labelled and dated.
2. All gathered information (failures, successes, epiphanies, sketches, visual research, printouts, websites, images, charts, etc.) documented logically and chronologically in the e-portfolio for the duration of the project in one post and for the duration of the course in a separate post as instructed in class.
3. Softcopy of the digital book uploaded onto the e-portfolio for the purpose of reading. A thumbnail printout of the digital book.
4. All files packaged and uploaded into Google Drive and links provided in the e-portfolio. Ensure all folders are labelled or named appropriately.
Objectives
1. To develop students ability to adapt the various elements attractively in a digital book.
2. To develop students ability to create seamless navigation from page to page.
3. To develop students ability to maintain a consistent identity with acceptable variation
