Updating my Wix Website part 1

-

Today I will be updating my Wix Website for my project this term 


First, I updated my portfolio page 



First, I checked my pages to see if they all work smoothly, after that I opened my portfolio page which lead directly to my first project. I wanted to change and create a welcome page for the portfolio and a separate one for each project. First, I clicked on the section and then on "copy" to copy the whole page. 


Then I went to the "page & menu" category on the left toolbar and then clicked on "add" on the top left corner of the box to add a page.  


Then I clicked on the circle button next to the page box and clicked on "subpage" to add it in the portfolio category. I named the page "Tribrid" which is the name of my term 1 project.

 Then clicked on the open page and pasted the whole page from earlier.


After that, I want to the main page of the portfolio which I turned into a "welcome to my portfolio"  first page. I added text by clicking on "add elements" on the left side toolbar, then clicked on "text" and "heading 3".


After that, I added another page to the portfolio which I named tangled for my second project by following the same steps as earlier.


Then I chose a background image (which I will change later to one of my own pictures) by clicking on the surface, then "change section background" and then chose an image from the options. I then added two buttons in the top right corner. I added a "back to home" button and a "back to portfolio" button, i did that by clicking on "add elements" on the left side toolbar, then clicked on the "button" section and selected the design I wanted. After I placed them I clicked on the and then on the "change text & icon" selection that pops up and changed the text for each button and then selected the link for each to lead to the two separate pages. 


After i had both of my extra pages, i went back to the welcome page of my portfolio and added two buttons at the bottom that lead to each of my project pages. I did that the same way as the earlier step but changed the colours of the design by clicking on the, then selecting "design" on the selections that pop up and then "customise design".



After that, I added text to the center of the page and then decided to change the background image as well by clicking on the surface, the "change section background" and then chose an image from the options for now. 





After that, I went to the project one page and added the same "back to portfolio button".


After that I changed the year on the button part of the pages in my copyright mark. I did that by clicking on it and then "edit text" 





These are some of the changes I planned on doing to my website, I will be updating it again to change and add some more details, then upload my project on it which I will be blogging about as well.

Week 5 further research

 In week 5 of planning, I'm doing some more research. Today I'm researching Rem Koolhaas, a Dutch architect who is known for his gravity-defying structures. His innovative and futuristic style has been setting standards for years, he thinks that "Terms like city, street, identity, and architecture are things of the past. The past is too small to live in". One of his famous works is the "De Rotterdam" building, this is a multifunctioning building, (a great work to look up to since my project revolves around multifunctional requirements as well), he describes his work as a "vertical city".                                                                                      The De Rotterdam  This building is located  at  Wilhelminapier in Rotterdam, he design...

Prototype 3D model process

-
Image
This is my 3D prototype process.  I used foam board and mount board as the main materials. I started by cutting out the water drop shapes from mountboard for the main part of the design with a craft knife, after I measured them. Then I cut out a wave line that I would later glue on the foamboard wave part and tested out the placement. After I  cut a rectangle foamboard piece, I started cutting lines on it and making some space in between every cut which would help the material bend for the wave. After I tried the placement of the mount board wave on the foamboard piece to see if it fits correctly. After that, I started cutting out the lines on the pieces in where the wave part will be placed.  After I had most of the pieces ready I tested out the foamboard wave on the straight wall of the mountboard to see if it would stand and bend correctly when placed in between the cut.  After I started gluing the pieces together of the main part with PVA.  After the three w...

 This is my process of creating my boards for my final art portfolio project, using Photoshop.  First I created a new document by clicking on 'New File', then 'print', 'A3', and chose the landscape mode. after my page was open I went on 'Unsplash' to find a related background.  Then I clicked on 'File' that's at the top left corner, 'open' and 'on your computer' and chose the image that I downloaded.  After that, I selected the image with the 'rectangular marquee' tool which is the first icon on the left toolbar and then clicked on 'edit', 'copy' and then went to my first page, clicked on 'edit' again and pasted it. Then from the right tool bar I lowered the opacity to 40% which is located at the 'layers' category.  Then I followed the same steps with uploading my concept image and arranged the size and placement by clicking on the 'move' tool and then clicking on 'show trans...
