R&D Research 24: Health Warnings

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

QR Redirect mockup5Here is the design I have created for the health warning section. Originally I had the background rectangle as black and text as white, however it soon became apparent that such a heavy contrast of black and white on one screen could be damaging for people with photosensitive health issues. As there is no such ‘scale’ to identify these warnings, I think we will need to implement a more detailed description based service, rather than the ‘out of 5’ scale that other issues such as violence can be categorised by.

 

R&D Research 23: QR Codes on Posters

PosterExample

Here is an example of a QR code having been placed onto a film poster. As you can see it does not detract from the visuals of the poster, but is still large enough to be recognised as a QR code that can be scanned. I would try to employ this universally, making sure the QR code is in the bottom right of the poster, so parents and audience members know where to look when they want to scan the QR code.

 

 

 

R&D Research 22: Proof of Concept Work

I haven’t posted on my blog for a while due to other commitments etc, but I am now beginning to work on my proof of concept for my 12a? service, which I plan to be in the form of either a PDF, or an Adobe Voice presentation – to make it more interesting.

I have a rough structure of how I want it to be set out, starting out with the problem (the vagueness of 12a movies and the 12a movie rating) – backed up with evidence from my questionnaire.

I am then going to show how my app will look, going through the various stages, from scanning the QR code, to redirecting the user to information on the film, to the user scrolling down to see further information.

In order to have a proof of concept however, there are still some aspects to the app that I need to design, including loading screen, the remaining example categories on the app – and how the app icon will look and fit on an iPhone and an Android device. Therefore to begin with, I shall carry on designing these and then import these into my proof of concept, whether that be an Adobe presentation, or a simpler PDF.
