Task 1: Thematic Interactive Website Proposal
INSTRUCTIONS
TASK 1 - PROPOSAL
Instruction
We are required to create a thematic interactive website proposal with
the topic of our choice. A thematic interactive website is a website
that focuses on a specific theme or concept with the aim of
incorporating interactive elements to interact with users. Most such
websites utilize multimedia such as videos, animations, interactive
graphics displayed on the page, or other clickable elements which have
interactive components that provoke the user. This dynamic experience is
meant to keep the user interested in addition to the thematic concept.
Requirements
- Completed UI/UX proposal document.
- All processes (concept, wireframes, mood-board, flow chart) have to be documented in blog.
- A video presentation.
Selected Theme: AESPA
Who are Aespa?
Aespa is a South Korean girl group known for their innovative and
futuristic concept that merges the real world with a virtual universe
called "æ-KNOW." The group consists of four members: Karina, Giselle,
Winter, and Ningning. What makes Aespa unique is their concept of
"avatars" or digital counterparts known as "æs", which interact with the
real-life members. This concept allows them to explore themes of
identity, technology, and connectivity in a visually striking and
futuristic manner.
Why choose Aespa?
Their concept aligns perfectly with the vision of creating an
interactive website with animations and futuristic 3D elements. Their
blend of real and virtual worlds offers a rich and dynamic canvas for
creative storytelling, immersive experiences, and engaging
interactions. By using Aespa's concept, I can create a website that
transports visitors into a captivating digital realm, where they can
explore the group's universe, interact with virtual avatars, and delve
into the futuristic themes that Aespa represents.
Aespa's Music Video
Below is one of their song "Savage" tells the whole story of their
fight with Black Mamba. The girls team up to strike down a reptile
with translucent scales before breaking it down alongside their ae
friends.
Objective
The primary objective of the website is to create an immersive,
engaging digital experience that enhances the connection between
Aespa and their fans. It seeks to enhance fan engagement by
providing an interactive platform for exploring Aespa's universe,
participating in exclusive events, and connecting with other fans.
The website aims to promote Aespa’s content by showcasing their
music, videos, and concept innovatively, leveraging their unique
blend of real and virtual worlds. Additionally, the website aims to
expand Aespa's digital presence by creating a state-of-the-art
platform that reflects their futuristic and technologically advanced
brand.

FEEDBACK
16.5.2024- Week 4
- For the website content, just focus on the top two sections. Other sections, like merchandise, can be removed since the project is more focused on creating an interactive website with animation.
- On the home page, in the nav bar, make the "Merch" link direct to their official website.
- Indicate in the proposal the purpose of that section in the wireframe.
- For the album page, focus on promoting one of their albums only, and try to think how the page can look interactive, animated, and engaging.
REFLECTION
When we were first introduced to the module, I started to have a lot of
ideas for the theme of the website. However, once I read the
requirements and objectives carefully, which were to create an
interactive website, I began to sort out how I could utilize the theme
in conjunction with animation and interactive elements to create an
engaging website. This was my first experience using Adobe Animate to
create an interactive website. Initially, I questioned myself and
worried that I might not complete it as well as I hoped for the final
project. But after learning from tutorials on using Adobe Animate, doing
more research, and viewing some references, I started to have a clearer
direction. This was my first time incorporating a futuristic theme into
my project, and I was excited to see how the final outcome would look.
