Assignment 2: Prototyping and Microinteractions

An app that helps readers find their next favorite book.

Project Description:

For assignment 2, students will develop an idea for an app, search it and prototype it. Please note that students are only creating a prototype, and will not actually be programming the app.
Students will develop an idea, create a design brief for the app, and begin to research the app. This means researching potential users and their habits. Students will then create a persona based on the users and a style tile for the visual style of the app.
Students will create a prototype that displays an understanding of icons, information architecture as well as colors. The app will show AT LEAST three examples of microinteractions and one example of animation.
Students will give a brief five/ten minute presentation of their app including the preproduction and walkthrough.
