Week 4A

Today in class we got into our conference groups and my group discussed the different poster and flyer designs and which ones to go with. We decided on Kira's flyer design and Mel's first design so they are going to adjust/clean them up for Wednesday. Gianna's designs were pretty incomplete so she is hopefully going to fix that for Wednesday. Catherine cleaned up the informational poster for today. Since we are going with Kira's flyer choice, I am going to start brainstorming ideas for the storyboard for a motion design explaining the conference.

For the app section of class, we discussed our elevator pitches and mine evolved a lot. Then we discussed and took notes on branding matrixes and we have 3 do for class on Wednesday. My idea is now going into a travel internal clock idea. This is what I have brainstormed so far:

• This app is for people who travel often for business trips, conferences or school.
• The app allows the user to record their internal/body clock for a standard (work) week in their life.
• Then once they are in their new location the phone will adjust time zones, as will the app. It will make a new "week" (for example called Rome). This week will have a time column of back home, new time and then the main section of your schedule. 
• (user will be capable of editing this new week, for example wake up times)
• The app will notify the user when they should eat/sleep in this new time zone to help adjust. (1st priority)
• The user can share their 'week' with other users within the app (like loved ones) and the "home" column will switch to whatever time zone they are in so they know when the user is asleep etc. 

For next class I will have a refined idea, elevator pitch and name for my new idea.
