What do we need to deliver at the end of our project?
Overview
Daniel Scott
Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor
instructorI discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.
To be a commercial web designer there is more to make than just a thoughtful website mock-up. There are some final deliverables – tangible files and information that you’ll need to hand over before the coding of your website can begin.
Our aim before the end of this course is to have a folder filled web ready images that follow the correct web naming conventions. You’ll also be producing whats called a CSS sheet that is used by a developer to know what fonts you were using, the heights and widths of say your navigation or footer box.
You’ll learn how to pass on the correct colour codes , the line heights, spacing for your website, so that the lovely person is building your website can get to work fast and not have to make huge guesses from your mock-up.
