Development & Production of Idea

Before sourcing any media and creating my own content, I created a list of what theme each month was and what I would need to do. I felt that planning was a key part of this project so I could stay organised throughout and not get stressed.

I mostly used all of my own media such as photos and videos. February found images online that are all copyright free. And all music is from online.
For each month I came up with a theme or occasion that happened and then went about trying to create a way in which I could present that memory using media.
For a lot of the months I recreated moments that had happened, and took photos so that I could use the Rostrum Camera Effect and make short films and put them on Youtube.
I felt this was a better idea than making films because it allowed the user to interact with still images and allowed them to take a closer look at snapshots in time, plus giving them a chance to reflect on their own memories of that occasion
For November I created a soundscape of fireworks as I felt by creating a story with these sounds, the user could imagine themselves watching a display, and therefore making them feel more involved with the project.
I also included links to websites that would be useful for that month, like a school supplies company in September.
To get the most out of the possibilities QR codes present, I included events, social media links and Google maps so that my project would be more varied.
