The expert of the faculty of journalism of the Moscow State University evaluated ORIENT
Within the limits of courses for improvement of qualification of workers of the press at the faculty of journalism of the Moscow state university a seminar on the theme «Designing and perfection of web sites» was held. Teacher of the department of new media and theory of communications Alexander Shalyapin told students about modern trends of web design.
In particular, established tendencies in work of online sites include: use of adaptive web design, motion-design, 3D-schedules, blocks-background images of continuous colour, custom illustrations, big fonts, parallax-scrolling, and also active application of multimedia tools (photo and video).
Besides other, during the seminar Alexander Shalyapin analysed and estimated sites of participants of courses. Orient did not escape the expert’s attention either.
- The site has enough modern design. It successfully combines a colour palette. I will note a running news line which you will see not on each portal, - Alexander speaks. - Photos which "dilute" texts organically blend. At the cursor’s pointing to headings, they stand out with a substrate - at once it is visible that you have taken care of convenience of readers of the site.
Besides a professional estimation, the skilled expert gave our site a number of recommendations about improvement of work and change of design to which the team of ORIENT will surely follow.
P.S. We, of course, realise that at the given text there is a fair quantity of special terms with which, despite present general «advancement» of Internet users, not all are familiar. Therefore, we also have made a small glossary for those whom the topic of web design is close and interesting.
Motion-design is a process of creation of animated graphics. The animated graphics is a visual designing which shows an illusion of motion. The Internet, media and advertising, television, cinema, mobile applications, video games cannot do without it in any of these spheres.
Block-background - a background for various elements of the site, frequently happens active, «clickable».
Custom illustrations - the illustrations made to order, often unique, with "impudent" colours, doing your site distinctive.
Parallax-scrolling - a technique in computer graphics where background images move past the camera more slowly than foreground images, creating an illusion of depth in a 2D scene and adding to the sense of immersion in the virtual experience.
Multimedia tools - programs or online services for creation of photo and video, presentations and many other things.
