Website Design

Ok, so It may be overly ambitious, but throughout the lecture today I've been putting my non-existant drawing skills to the test my planning out what I think I could do with my basic page layout. I'm going to be using pictures of gaming consoles/smart phones to make up most of the website template. I think it might be a little bit overcrowded but it'll be easier to scale down if I start big and work backwards. About to set off for my parents with my camera to take some pictures and get started!

Header for the Website!

I think I've had a relatively good idea for the header of my website 'Girl Gamers'. All I need to do now is put pencil to paper and put my very, very limited drawing skills to use and try and come up with a working prototype. Mostly for the images, I'll be using images from actual PC games. I'll need to take those too!

The Website!

Spoken with Mark!


After my last minute idea for a website with babies, which to be honest was particularly last minute desperate idea. After the first two lectures I thought the website had to be something out of my comfort zone in what I would normally create, that isn't entirely true seemingly and now I'll be creating a website one Gaming, not sure what aspect of gaming, but the website is going to be aimed at Women. Which if we think about it is out of my comfort zone if we consider the audience, I look forward to some of the research I'll need to do for this website. Now I've updated all of you, I must run and let Mark teach us about

tags in CSS.

I'm Back! New Media Production here I come!

I'm Back.

Indeed, I am. Year two of University now and we're in the second term and its now 2010! I think that's you all updated to where and the time of these blogs, now to the why! I've just started this course 'New Media Production' with lecturer Mark Smith. Basically for 'New Media Production' we've got to create a Website on a certain subject or company, I submitted my brief to Mark via email on Monday, I was really struggling for any ideas until about 11pm on Monday night when I was looking at Rose sleeping when I thought I'd see if Mark was applicable with the idea that I created a website on babies! Something I still don't know a great deal about even though I have a one month old, So I suppose creating this website might even help me in the long run with Missy Rose.

Anyway back to business. Just got to wait to see if Mark likes the idea or not. If not I suppose its back to the drawing board. I'll update this once I've spoken with Mark!

Work Work Work :/

Ok,

So today I've spent my day writing my report on the BBC presentation, which by the way I thought went pretty well on tuesday evening! I've just finished the artwork design for photography in the media and now I'm moving on to finish my Prof Writing work.. No rest for the wicked eh..?

The Weekend!

Ok, So I'm back home from a hard days grafting.. at tesco ;P Dont laugh its a relativley difficult job if done correctly! :D Anyway, I'm quite happy with the progress I've made with my projects this weekend. I've sorted out my speach for Tuesday Evenings lecture and I'll be going into Uni early morning again tomorrow to hopefully do some last minute touch-ups on the radio program, everyone get ready to tune into LAJ.fm.. Its gonna be amazing :D

I found out today something nobody wants to hear just before christmas... I need at least two new tyres for my car and it needs to be done before anymore major driving can be done. So before I can hit Uni tomorrow I'll be running around garages spending what money I have left on new tyres :( I hate cars!! No. I hate my car, I so need a new one. It's proper annoying me the amount of stuff that is wrong with my car - Please god dont let any prospective buyers of my car read this blog!

Anywho, I best get some sleeps before tomorrow or I'm gonna be absaloutley nackered. Although through all this chaos, I heard that one of my best mates is back in town! Hopefully I'll manage to see him sometime this week :)

Deadlines, Deadlines :/

Ok, so this if my first 'semester'/'term' almost finished, and as what I would assume is usual in university life, I've got pretty much every deadline under the sun next, week and unfortunetly not allot of work to show for it at the moment. Dont get me wrong, I should be able to get it all done by the deadlines. BUT, I am definetly pushing my luck a little. I've been working with Lauren and Alicia on our Radio Production which needs to be presented on Monday evening, Some of the editing still needs to be done and my version of Audacity (Audio Editor) keeps crashing when I try to Amplify some of the sound.. which put us in precarious waters.

I've got another group presentation on the Tuesday evening, our subject is on the history of BBC television, a particulary riviting subject which I'm sure will keep the lecture awake for our 20minutes :) I still need to get my notes typed up for this. I wont say I'm not worried about that particular deadline. I think its just; as with the radio production, I dont want to let anybody down - and unfortunetly in the past I'm sure I have a record of doing just that! Wednesday next week, I'm positive will be spent on last minute projects which need to be in on the Thursday/Friday of next week.

To top it all off, its christmas. All my uni friends wanna go out of farewells over christmas and all my 'school' friends which are coming back from Universitys around the country wanna go out as a 'welcome back' or 'reunion' parties. With all that and the added pressure of getting all my work in on time, will I actually have time for myself?
