Trouble Shooting

From our meeting last week, we have pretty much finished the web based conference application and is ready to be downloaded to Home Screens. What pretty much is left is that we need to generate a QR code for posters/pamphlets in which conference guest can download the app. Alborz has taken the initiative to speak to the visual identification team to work out the details. I have decided to speak to the social media team so they can broadcast the code via the various social media accounts once the code has been generated.

Otherwise, we are simply trouble shooting and ensuring the user experience is a seamless effort.

The light at the end of the tunnel

This past weekend, the conference app got together to make some solid decisions towards uploading our created pages. For the speaker bios, we ran into a little bit of difficulty with the images that were sent to us (poor quality/ pixilated images) and ended up recreating the bios with images of better quality pulled off of google search. With the change came a much more simple black and white design which does flow better. Also during this meeting we uploaded our location page, which really did not give us any issues at all. In the greater scoop of things, I would pretty much say we are about 78% done this app, but due to such short time to submit the app (Apple's app approval is the deciding factor), I'm pretty sure we'll have to go with plan B and use the web based app.

speakers page

This past week was quite busy in terms of placement work, but it has also been productive for the app. At this point in time we've split the work and are working some what independently on our assigned task, but checking in collectively to make sure we are all on the same page. This week my job was to create the "speaker bio layouts", in which will be uploaded to their respective pages. This is a generic template I've created for the bios..

 My initial thoughts on this design was how to make the page look interesting in such a simple theme (the black and white theme  web-based app we showed in class).. we currently have a group meeting scheduled this saturday to implement our new pages/ upload working content
