Week 6 Out Of Class

Fixed Persona!

Above is the fixed persona, all the changes are applied from the last post including the new Facebox picture.

Icon Variations? 

Above a are some variations of my icon. The only thing that changes is the background. The main question is if the background should be lighter of if it needs some type of gradient/pattern.






 Interface Wireframes

Above are the wireframes I created for my app, Journey Owl. From left to right top to bottom I created, the home screen/ My week, My Week with side menu, My Day screen, add an event, My Day with side menu, and I started the share screen.

After watching the keynotopia video I tried to open and use some templates on the program but nothing would open so I was not sure if we actually had the program. I was hoping to create the share screen with that since it will use a lot of standard apple menu components. Since we had to only create 4 wireframes I just created bare bones for the last one (share screen) in hopes that I will be able to use that program.

The home screen is now My Week instead of My Month as I had originally sketched. This is to be true to the idea of having a large touch target. The user could have the ability to scroll through multiple weeks. I kept the idea of the side bar menu from my sketches but I got rid of a few options. The options in the side menu are, Search, My Week, Share, My Day, Settings, and an arrow that will hide the menu. Once the user clicks on a day, or goes to My Day they will see their schedule. For that screen I went with the second sketch I had created that had larger rectangles overall. This screen only includes what is on the schedule, not every hour in between. The add an event screen is a pop out that can be accessed from any screen.

Design Brief

Below are the initial six pages of my Journey Owl design brief. I tried to connect the style of it back to my revised persona and the app interface. The cover page has the same background as the persona. I tried to carry that throughout the rest of the layouts. The dashed line is references travel is also throughout the layouts.

The stacking of text and photos is a reference to the interface wireframes. Since they are very rectangle/ square based I tried to have that style overall.
I was not sure what imagery to place on the elevator pitch/ tribe questions page so I am hoping to get feedback on that during class.
