The Challenge
Creating a website using advanced techniques such as javascript and bootstrap within 24 hours. The time constraint was my own fault. I am used to creating website for clients and it has taken days to weeks. I wanted to truly challenge myself with something that would be technical, but also physically and mentally demanding, like in a firm.
To help me focus on finishing the site with a super short time constraint, I created a persona name Steve (inspired by Steve Jobs), that wanted to a website on a super short notice. Steve is a 25 year old reporter's assistant in New York with a degree in marketing, but no art experience. In order to get his job he over-exaggerated his skills on his resume. He is also a chronic procrastinator. Steve reaches out to me in the hopes that I can finish his task of completing the company's new news site "Art News" before he has to give his big presentation tomorrow.
The Planning
Using bootstrap, coffee, and plethora of notes, I got down to business and created the site using countless youTube Videos to also aide in the process.
Finished Results
The results were a fully functioning art news sites that recieved an excellent grade.
