As a very indecisive person, I spent a couple of days thinking about what to choose for the three events to conduct my research on. In the end, I settled on events that were very close to each other on the timeline but each had a revolutionary impact on the world. The topic I was mostly interested in was Steamboat Willie since I’m a big fan of Walt Disney’s works. However, I found that after delving deeper into the other two events, the launching of Scotch tape and Otto Neurath’s Isotype and infographics, it made me appreciate the history of both.
Learning how to use Invision was quite a ride. I liked how clean the UI was and that you were able to change the size of the text boxes and images to your preference. However, there was a bug with mine where the header image wouldn’t load and the title of my mood board disappeared. I couldn’t figure out how to fix it after troubleshooting several times so I ended up restarting.
If I were to give myself a mark out of 10, I would give myself a 9/10. This project took me a long time to do as I put a lot of effort into my writeups and choosing images that could best represent each event. I didn’t manage my time as well as I hoped though so I’ll have to work on that. There was also a bit of confusion regarding the brief and rubric but I still believe I was able to make the most out of my understanding in order to make the mood board as best of my ability.
