I've also been looking at football quotes that contain stats that are funny and also highlighting the lack of intelligence within the 'football world'. Quotes such as: "It was a game of two halves".

Screen Based Communication

The new project has just been launched and I'm feeling daunted by learning Adobe Flash as I've heard it can be hard going. The animation has to be based around a statistic so I'm going to try and find some obscure stats.

initial thoughts

I was thinking of leaning towards a football theme for my project. By basing it around football I can maintain motivation and should hopefully give me more enthusiasm to learn Flash. I am a keen supporter of Newcastle United and they are pretty much regarded as the Comedy club of the Premierleague so I was considering looking at statistics that could display their dismal seasons of the past.

Finished!

Worked hard to get everthing done. I'm really pleased with my final outcome and I think that it pulls together various thoughts and ideas from my development through the project.

Interim Crit.

The general feedback from the critique is that I should make my piece as close to the Facebook layout as possible to engage the target audience better. They also reckoned that I should go with the news feed style instead of just a Friend request. I agree with the comments and feedback though it it's a bit risky doing a piece of work that is very close to the real website, though the concept is that Amnesty would collaborate with Facebook.

lack of motivation

Over the x-mas period I have admittidly relaxed too much and let the work get on top of me. I feel I lost my enthusiasm due to the x-mas break. Though I'm not far off finishing my essay!
