One designer's commentary on design and explanation of his design processes. I like this site because it gives explanations of the design process with good visual examples as well as offers pointers on things to avoid when designing. This particular article has a good explanation of the process of copywriting. It's cool to see the designer's process - from brainstorm, to thumbnails, to final published product - alongside his explanation of it.

D#1, HW#13 I really enjoyed this website for a couple different reasons. First of all, the design process is similar to that in the book, but yet it has a different approach because it is for an architectural piece, instead of a web site or banner for example. I also enjoyed it because it is not only a list of the concepts for the designer process, but it is also the steps that this particular architectural design teams uses and wants to share with their customers. This shows those customers that they have a structured plan and as a customer you can know where you are in the time line of your design and build process. Although the design process is not exactly the same as the book, it uses the same concepts from beginning with a blank page and sketching out ideas, to ending with details helping to make the project personal to the audience.

This website goes into detail about the process of laying out projects, such as in this case brochures for your business or hotel maybe. The website goes into detail about what you can do to keep the readers attention in the page and what you have to say by appearance and how things are laid out and grouped together. In any design process this is the most important part because you must figure out how to capture the readers attention as well as maintain their attention. This website does a wonderful job at taking you through that process step by step.

This site specifically relates to graphic design, but still demonstrates design basics. It looks at such things as target audiences and knowing the message you want to send.

D#1 HW# 13 This website shows tons of different ways to consider the design process. If you can't find one you like and understand, it is probably time to create your own!

This site just gives us a deeper description of what a comprehensive is. Comps are the last part of the design process. This part of the process is what takes the most creativity and brings life to the project. Comps are very important in designs.

This was the most helpful site.

This article provides an additional perspective of the "media revolution."  In its ability to transmit knowledge, a medium is a catalyst to open up new possibilities and perspectives to its audience. The media revolution took place when digitalization became a global and universal process. It is also described here as "irreversible;" it involves a great deal of change at the economic, social, political, and cultural levels of a society. This article also covers the process of shifting into a more computerized state; the first stage, for example, involves adapting traditional tasks from the old medium to the new. From there, the people speculate about the future.

I really like this article because it explains the design process in an easy way that anyone can understand. I like how the article breaks the process into steps and how it uses bullets and lists to make reading and understanding the content of the article easier.

It helps you analyze and create a purpose; provides you with brainstorming rules to successfully jot down your ideas without judgement; it helps you go through a selection process which relates to thumbnail sketches and comp, etc. 

The main concept in CH1 identifies the importance of the design process through various steps. This site specifies web site building application and how to make it simple for the average viewer.

Expanded methods of editing and proofreading documents. The form of medium you edit in, by reading the document on the computer or on a printed out hard copy, can effect the process.

The websites I found really break down planning and the process of writing. This is something that will help me with project 1 because I will be able to follow their process. By following their process, I feel like my work will be more succesful and have better structure.

This stuff is really hard for me to understand. This is a definition to help if others are struggling.

This website gives an explanation about remediation and new media.  It also gives an explanation of how remediation is defined by predecessors like the television, radio and or old media like journals.  Media can interact with other kind of media by reproducing and replacing and making other changes.
