The five fonts people voted on were:
- Arial
- Auntumn
- Boulder
Sharp
- Eurostar
I choose five designs which I think would look quite good I then gave these too my fellow classmates and I received the following results:
From this graph I can infer that most people preffered the Sharp font, I also liked this design so I am going to use it as the font for my presentation. When I received these results I checked it out with the English rep and he said that he also liked this font style and that it would be good to use.
The next thing I need to do is to design my menu structure, this is to show in which ways the screens can be navigated. It will be operated from a main menu and all screens will be reached from there. All screens will also contain a button where the user can return to the main menu. I will also have a title screen that will link straight to the menu.
Now I have decided on a design and a font to use I am going to design the final presentation. I am going to show the designs for each of the sections, however I will only design the slide showing information about zones once because all the slides are identiacal looking excpet the information in them changes. I will use the design from my initial design and then devlop this. I will annotate what I have done by the side.
Slide 1- Title Screen
Also I will have transition effects on this slide. These will be that the images and writing appear automatically. I will have all the boxes appearing on fly mode meaning, they appear on the screen at a set time. I have also put tiem settings on so that each piece of information comes up every second. The information will work down so the thems park name will appear first, the the logo, then the next tetx then the continue butoon. Once this has all appered the user will be able to click on the continue button. The border and mini logo in the corner will be on the screen at the start, this will be the same for every slide.
Slide 2- Main Menu
This is the screen where the whoel presentation is run from, it has links to every screen. Below is the final design for the menu:
I will also have transition effects on this slide the logo and border will appear, then all the zones will appear, then one second later the other area’s will appear, this gives the display a proffesional look and will alos give time for the user to read everything. I have made hyperlinks on all the text so that when the user clicks on them it takes them to that screen.
Slides 3-7- Zones Slide
The theme park has five zones and each of these zones has its own slide, they are all in the same desing, but have different information. Below is the slide design, I have only done one but the others will follow the same design. There is a main title then information about the zone then a map of the actual zone and a map of where the zone is in the park.
All the zone slides will also have transition effects, the ttile will appear then one second the later the writing will. The writing will appear with one word coming out at a time so the user has time to read it all through. This also makes the presentation look better. Then when all the writing has appeared the two pictures will also appear at the same time. The border, logo and menu button will all appear when the screen is brought up.
Slide 8- Directions
This slide is linked from the main menu and is on its own. It states directions to the the park. It includes text and pictures. The final slide design is shown below:
As in all slides the logo, border and main menu button will appear immediatley, then the title will appear, one second later the text will appear once again coming out word by word so that people have time to read it. The two maps will then appear at the sam time arriving from the right hand side of the screen.
Slide 9- Park Hours
This slide displays the hours that the park are open, I have been provided the information that can be put in and the final desing for this slide is displayed below:
This slide will have the title appearing like all the other, one second later all the rest of the information will appear in the orange box, the box will come into the screnn from the left, this is to add an attractive effect to the slide. As always the logo, main menu butoon and white border will appear automatically.
Slide 10- Prices
This slide will also be linked from the main menu and will display the prices of the theme park. I have got most of the information goven to me including a prices table which I have scanned in. The final desing for this slide is shown below:
This slide’s transition effects will be like most of the other slides, the title will appear first then the introductory text will appear word by word, then when all of this is dispalyed the two other text boxes will appear, one from the right and the other from the left. One secoind after these have benn up the imported image will appear.
Slide 11- More Help?
This slode will be a slide containing text about whereb to go if the user needs to find out something that is not in the presentation. The text will be written by myself and will be in a large white box in the middle of the slide. The final design of the slide is shown below:
The transition effects on the final slide will be similoar to the others. The logo, border and main menu button will appear automatically. Then the title will appear and after one second the text box will appear. The text will then be spelt out word by word, this is so that peopl read all the information. If it is all displayed at once they may miss parts out because they are just looking for the information they want. This stops this occurance happening.
Project Schedule
When implemting this project I have many tasks to complete, to make sure I do this I will create a lost of all the tasks I need to do. I can tick off when I have stasks, this will make sure that I have done everything.
Task One: Make background and border and apply it to all slides. I will do this by making the background thejn clicking on apply to all slides.
Task Two: Place logo on every slide copy and paste this into bottom corner of every slide.
Task 3: Create all titles on the slide, using what I have said on the final designs.
Task 4: Create all word boxes and add text to these, do this on all slides where it applies.
Task 5: Add images taken off the internet, manipulate these in paint before finally applying them.
Task 6: Scan in price list, manipulate in paint shop pro then place into slide where necessary.
Task 7: Add buttons using hyperlinks, put buttons in where explained in final design.
Task 8: Add transitions to slides, as explained in designs.
Task9: Change time settings so they are ste at what is required.
Task 10: Implement test plan and check that everything works as it should, note down any errors.
Test Plan
Task 10 is implemeting a test plan, I need to create a test plan that I can use in the implemets section. A test plan is a selection of tests that I will carry out to check that everything in my system works. The test plan I have devised is shown below:
