For this project I first met with Stacy and was briefed about the site, the needed functionality, and the target user. Here are my notes!

Arts Portal https://artsportal.la.utexas.edu/

Mockups needed:

Home/cards

  • remove blue date badge
  • date should be almost same size as event name
  • facebook event card-esque
  • hover effects

Event page (top priority)

  • standardize image size
  • banner image?

Nav

  • menu : blue bg
  • logo: just black box, same line as menu?

Stacy’s initial site design utilized the same card style as the NowPlayingAustin site; this is because the clients wanted the site to be modeled after it. 

Stacy’s original design:
