EVENT DETAILS |
It's no secret that mobile devices have changed the computing landscape. An increasing number of people are browsing websites on smartphones and tablets, so they need to be mobile-optimized. People are also using native apps specifically designed for smartphones and tablets. With these new devices come new design challenges that we'll discuss in this seminar.
Join us for a free 2-hour seminar so you can become a better designer. Here are some topics we'll talk about:
How Mobile is Affecting Logo Design
Navigation
o Small screens can be challenging. We'll talk about and show examples of various styles of mobile navigation.
o Pros and cons of different types of mobile navigation.
o User experience and content flow. Considering what your users need, so they have a great experience.
Responsive Web Design
o A responsive website adapts itself across different size screens (mobile, tablet, desktop, etc.). Unlike separate mobile and desktop sites, a responsive website uses a single codebase that adapts to any size screen.
o Mobile First: Improve your designs by focusing on mobile devices first, instead of treating them as an afterthought once you've designed the desktop site.
o Designing flexible content that can work across devices.
Emails
o Emails can be responsive too!
o How much can you do?
o What do you need to keep in mind?
How Do I Create My Graphics/Designs?
