= Endspurt = We were really working towards the final presentation now. This meant agreeing on a final website design, visualising functionality, organising our content in the wiki, planning the physical aspect of the publication and planning the presentation itself. ==== The presentation ==== For our presentation we decided to use some of the experiences we had collected in the interviews. This meant some logistics and planning, since we decided that we wanted to sit down at a table together with the client and the teachers, give out beverages and present on a laptop screen. We also decided we did not want to show any bullet points, or a presentation as such. Instead, we wanted to mainly talk about our concept, the interviews and our reasoning behind it and show this on a working version of the website. This way we would not have to present the design itself at all, but it would be connected to our story and be the only necessary visualisation. Of course, our main problem was that we had neither a finished design nor any remarkable coding skills. ==== Organising content ==== Organising the content was more of a structural question than a question of workload. In the final stage before our presentation, though, we all worked very close together, which made decisions like that easy. ==== Physicality ==== Eventually we agreed that the aspect of the editorial team meeting the alumni is already enough of a physical aspect, especially if every editorial team records their experiences. We organised these experiences on our wiki, where a print on demand function could also be implemented, making it possible to always quickly, on the push of a button, print out the latest version. ==== Name/logo ==== We had a LOT of difficulties coming up with a name. We discussed a lot of options, here are some: * talkthentalk * metalkyou * wetalkyou * hightalk * CHTS * Yakyak * az * powwow * pillow talk * talkfest * TLKFST * tête-à-tête * TTaTT * RLY * S-EX * TaT-a-TaT * RL * CRCL * out * PUT OUT * TaTaTaT * TETATET Finally Arthur came up with our final decision: fin Daniel and I then sketched with the logos for a while and arrived at a conclusion: [[File:Logolukas.png|400px]] [[File:Logodaniel1.jpg|400px]] [[File:Logodaniel2.jpg|400px]] ==== Design/Visualisation ==== We made all decisions in a group but the main discussion about the design was between me and Daniel. I initially did some research into typography, and was mostly influenced by these 4 things I found on the web: * [http://practicaltypography.com/ http://practicaltypography.com/] * [http://ia.net/ http://ia.net/] * [http://peteanicholson.com/ http://peteanicholson.com/] * [http://payload255.cargocollective.com/1/3/104814/7414585/BAP_2014_OneOnOne_ImageByHelloMeTillWiedeck.jpg http://payload255.cargocollective.com/1/3/104814/7414585/BAP_2014_OneOnOne_ImageByHelloMeTillWiedeck.jpg] After a lot of discussions and steps in between we ended up at our final design: [[File:FIN_Daniel1.jpg|400px]] [[File:FIN_Daniel2.jpg|400px]] [[File:FIN_Daniel3.jpg|400px]] [[File:FIN_Lukas1.jpg|400px]] [[File:FIN_Final1.png|400px]] [[File:FIN_Final2.png|400px]] Daniel did all of the coding for our trial version of the site. At this stage we worked very close together and while he was coding I would send him new parts of the design or he would ask me for changes and I would execute them for him. This was really effective and also very fun to work on!
