HomePage Makeover

         The assignment was to makeover a school's website and base it off of a company's. The school I chose was  Olathe South because the website was very basic and and rectangular and the company I chose was Duolingo because I like the layout and it's simple. We had a week to complete the project.

         The process began with looking for school websites and company websites. I looked at schools like Grand Island and Kearney in Nebraska but the websites were very well-made and didn't need a makeover. I decided to go look at the Olathe schools and went with South. For the company, I looked up "good company sites" and I clicked on a top 25 list and chose Duolingo.

           I started with the logo, trying to replicate the Duolingo bird and logo with South's colors.

         Then, I began working on the website. I compared South's website to Duolingo's and tried to recreate it. 

          I learned how to reuse Illustrator and refined graphic design skills and also refined my project management skills. I will continue to use the skills I honed to enhance future work. Overall, this project was pretty simple compared to projects like Flash and Wordpress and I enjoyed this project.
