Yesterday we presented our final project over Zoom to several JOMC instructors. Finally we got to show off all of our hard work. To prepare, we wrote a script and practiced several times prior to make sure it flowed well and that the timings were accurate. It clearly paid off as we received the complimentContinue reading “Final Blog – Payton Vergin”

This week in class we got to see two more groups practice their final presentations. I was really impressed by their websites and got a few more ideas on how we could spiff up our own site. For example after seeing Group 2’s hover bios, I decided to change ours to something kind of similar.Continue reading “Week 15 Blog – Payton Vergin”

This week my group did a practice presentation in front of the class, however I overslept my alarm and didn’t wake up. This was pretty irresponsible on my part and I feel awful that I put my group in that situation. I was informed that there were some technical errors that I must take careContinue reading “Week 14 Blog – Payton Vergin”

The first thing we discussed in our break out group meeting was what we had been working on over the past week. I mainly have been messing around with the website to make it the easiest to navigate and interactive for users. We loved the one page scrolling concept so that is the layout weContinue reading “Week 13 Blog – Payton Vergin”

This week we had a very successful group meeting over Zoom. We discussed what we had worked on during the previous week and gave each other our opinions. Alan popped in for a few minutes to give us some advice about how to best prioritize our time on the website building and I found thatContinue reading “Week 12 Blog – Payton Vergin”

Today we discussed as a group what our game plan is for going forward. Each of us has a unique different skill set and we are going to use that to our advantage on our project. We have decided to divide up the things that we have to work on. For example, Connor has beenContinue reading “Week 11 Blog – Payton Vergin”

This week I was absent from class because I was experiencing sick symptoms. With all of the panic around the Coronavirus, I decided that it was best to keep myself home. This Thursday it was also announced that the university is switching to all online classes after spring break. Although I will be staying hereContinue reading “Week 9 Blog – Payton Vergin”

This past Saturday, our group traveled to Omaha to compete in a couple different food challenges. The first stop was Bailey’s, a local breakfast joint, where Connor attempted the “Porkasaurus.” The Porkasaurus is massive plate of bacon, sausage patties and links, Canadian bacon, ham steak, and Andouille Sausage that sits atop a pile of eggs,Continue reading “Week 8 Blog – Payton Vergin”

This week I got to sit back and watch my classmates present their interactive media analyses. I was very drawn to the presentation about Granny’s Secret because their website was primarily centered around food. Since my group is doing our project on food, I believe that we could gather inspiration from there. For example, IContinue reading “Week 7 Blog – Payton Vergin”

This week I presented my interactive project analysis. I chose https://hifly.aero/ which is an organization that specializes in wet leases for aircrafts. Although designed to advertise their fleet, the website also tells a story with different forms of media. Using an animated timeline, the web designers highlighted each year that HiFly has been in operationContinue reading “Week 6 Blog – Payton Vergin”
