Deciding on the structure of the cell, a great wayto look into it could be using the revolves used
in video games heads up displays, character
selections and/or character loadout screens. These
layouts would provide an easy way observe and take
in data on the equipment and stats of an object or
character.

This is a still from a promotional video for a
game called Planetside 2. Having explored olddesign interfaces of games such as Final
Fantasy, Super Smash Bros Kingdome Hearts,
Pokemon and the like, this proved to be the
most helpful and inspiring towards my goal.

Right are some early
layout designs. After
the first image that I
realized this was going
to be a tough job and I
really needed to look at
the subject matter
graphical layout and howI was going to display a
eukaryotic cell in the
space of a Character
Loadout screen.The second image was a
sketch of a suddenthought at how to
suspend the cell in the
space.

I found myself settled with geometric shapesin a 3D space when it came to layout design.
Here I experimented with other colour
possibilities, albeit a little bold to start
with.

Settling on the idea that the final piece may
be a shade of blue I set about looking for
typefaces suiting the geometric background. Acommon feature with most loadout menus seems
to be a techy typeface, sometimes degraded
in quality, holographic, square and angular.
Here are a few of my tests.

I worked further on the layout designs using some
interesting geometric strips created in photoshop
to add a flare to the edges of the screens. Then
added in some reworked text box designs of asimilar theme. This resulted in the layout below

After completing
the pitch I
received a lot of
constructive
feedback. My
animatic at that
stage was a long
regurgitation of
facts, which is
exactly what
sends students tosleep. The
turning point in
my production
came when a tutor
suggested I
turned the idea
into an app. This
is the idea I
took forward to
this storyboard.

As can be seen in
the storyboard, I
kept the loadout
inspired layout I
had originallywanted and
modified things
slightly so as to
behave more like
a programme a
consumer was incontrol of.To imitate a
consumer/user I
have utilized
white halos to
track the finger
movements. Thesemovements
replicate some
touch screen
motions

The result of
turning this idea
into an app is
the idea of
having complete
control over your
learning. As a student you
can choose which
organelle youwant to
investigate first
rather than wait
for the video
animation to get
to that point and
therefore learn
what you need to
when you need to.
