feedback to Template's proto02

http://template01.info/clients/testing/pzi/proto02/

Andre 26.03.2015: The term "Media Design" is not visible. It should be as visible as the P, maybe superimpose the 2.

Andre 26.03.2015: (Detail) typography:

I like the P and the presentation text
On categories, and text in white background seem too bulky
Don't like much the see text with a Serif font.

Annet Dekker 30.03.2015: just few small questions, which you can possibly answer already:

will it be all in b/w? not sure about that for the projects especially
is the 'about' section about pzi/md or about the exhibition (might be

good to have an excerpt at the top of that part)?

where do you go when clicking (or swiping) the projects, to the wiki?

Aymeric Mansoux 01.04.2015:

Not sure about the current balance between text and visual. The visual

 aspect must be dominant on the home IMO.

There is a problem with their js here (FF 35.0.1) the initial text

 about the garduation does not show up until I actually move the

scrollbar, and when I select a category (flash for instance) the text about flash does not show up until you move the scroll bar a bit lower. (I do like very much the idea of a left side that change depending on the context but the implementation is a bit sketchy now).

not super convinced about the animations
as much as I like black and white, I find it a bit depressing in this

 context, BUT maybe that comes from the fonts and photo used right now.

The font change when categories are selected is too subtle to make the

 user aware this is a multichoice system.

Andre 04.04.2015:

the size each work occupies in the index page might be fine when we have only 10 to 20 works (a graduation year). Yet if all the Graduation work from mmd&c are ended it will be very difficult to see them all. Maybe this calls for a more "zoomed-out" view.

Pre...

Andre 9.03.2015: I sat-down with Annet and some of the 2nd years, since they were discussing the graduation project's website or catalog. The ones there were interested in the idea of having their show's catalog as part of the website. They were also eager to have the catalog in print. They added their thought to http://pzwart3.wdka.hro.nl/wiki/Archiving_grad_projects_2014#Documenting_the_Unstable It might be a bit tricky to combine all their wishes and the practical need to get things done. I wouldn't dwell on it for now, but just keep it in the back our of brains, that we might have to some separate the current Graduation works from the previous. And give prominence to the first. Maybe it would be beneficial to bring Annet into the development of website.

Andre 9.03.2015: I was looking at how the graduation works were documented on the wiki. The major issue seems to be in the introduction of Category:Grad_project last year. Until then grad project were given Category:work.

Andre 9.03.2015: Simon agreed to have template create the stylesheet. Plus, there might be budget for them to create a paper publication from the wiki/website. Simon needs a figure

I moved the inline comments here to have an easier to read structure, we can keep this tab to keep a log in case the other page content is not entirely explicit -- Aymeric Mansoux (talk) 12:55, 17 March 2015 (CET)
