Design concept

For my design concept, I would like to show about the life in Darwin. The footage all comes from my real life in Darwin. I just choice some special and the most impression places for my E-Protfolio. Darwin is a multicultural city in Australia, which attracts many tourists every year. My concept is divided into 6 parts which includes the Home page, Mindil beach, Wild Life Park, Jumping crocodile Cruise, my video products and contact details.

First of all, at the first page, a map of Darwin and the beautiful view in the city were showed beside the introduction of Darwin. The parts of Mindil Beach, Wild Life Park and Jumping Crocodile Cruise were showed by images that were taken by myself. I am a person who like photographs and share my favourite photos with people. Hope them will bring happy and information to people when they look at them.

It is also included the video products, such as the Meaning-Making Media Fragments and Being A Territory. The first one is a remix editing by using Final Cut Pro in this semester. It is a group product. “Being A Territory” showed the multicultural society in the Northern Territory and it was created by myself. My contact details also had been mentioned for people who want have communication with me. I am happy to receive the feedback and any suggestion from the viewers. It is an opportunity for me to enhance myself.

It is clear that the life in Darwin is full of fantastic. To enjoy the natural environment, multicultural society and the relaxed lifestyle will give you a different life in Darwin.

The link below is my final web design, please feel free to give me feedback and suggestion. Thank you.

NMD201 week11

Only one week to go in this semester. This week, we all concentrate on the final project-e-Portfolio. For my e-Portfolio, I would like to show the life in Darwin. As a personal e-Portfolio, I also want to upload my video products which I had done before. Some of them were created by myself, others were created from group work. My e-Portfolio is divided into 6 parts which are the Home page- Life in Darwin, Sunset in Mindil Beach, Wild Life Park, Jumping Crocodile Cruise, my video products and the contact details of me. The most impression place for me is Mindil Beach that it is only open 5 months from May to October every year. Mindil Beach is a good place to look the amazing sunset and enjoy the multicultural food in Darwin. Mindil Beach is also a market which is selling the native souvenir and some crafts on Thursday and Sunday only. In brief, it is a good place to relax and spend the weekend.  

The picture below is one part of my e-Portfolio

 This week, we continued the studying on Dreamweaver. From the class exercises, we learnt about how to design and edit a new web page by using Dreamweaver. Firstly, we need have a main page which could includes editable regain, so that we can creative a serious of related pages from this original template. We also can change and re-edit the content in the editable regain part which was maintained in the main web page. The next thing we can do in Dreamweaver is that inserts images, videos and even tables in the web page. The size of images can be changed into suitable that we need. So, the web page can be designed nicer. One of the most interesting part is that insert the table into web page. It not only shows us a table, but also it can include images and different colors in the table. The table is also important part of the web page, especially for the titles and catalogues. Table makes the structure of the web page more clearly and it points the things that people can easy to find it. It is very useful in the understanding of web design and web studying. We can create our own web page by using Dreamweaver. Even the web editing is complex and difficult, it is still good to know and study on it. To enhance our web knowledge and promote our study skill that it will gain more confidence for our future study and even work.
