design

when first designing my banner I mind mapped for ideas. i looked at the types of banners i could make. i could make a fun looking banner with games or a form of cartoons. or i could make a more professionally looking web banner. i chose to try and create a professional looking banner.  

these are the ruff designs of my banner. the first one i thought that you could have the Plymouth college of art information on a black box to the left and a picture slide show of the course. my second idea was to have the website on the banner and you have the ability to scroll down but when you click on it it takes you to the actual website. my final design was to have a corner of a computer and to have the website on the screen scrolling down and up. i ended up using this idea for my banner   

this is my my web banner that I designed for plymouth college of art.
i wanted to make something that is recognisable as the colege so what i thought of was having a black box like above and having the plymouth colege of art on it. i was inspired by the college's building as it has the same thing on the front of the building. for the idea of having a computer in the background i though it would look probational and it would also be relevant to the course that the banner is advertising.

unfortunetly the interactiveness of this banner is pretty limited and i would have liked to have made it more interactive.
