Proposal Idea 

Why Choose New Jeans ?

New Jeans x PowerPuff girls

I decided to centered my project around New Jeans, a K-pop girl group that I truly admire recently. Whenever I have the freedom to choose a topic, I always opt for something that brings joy and avoids unnecessary stress, so naturally, I picked the recent girl group I love. Their aesthetic and music have captured my heart, making it the perfect focus for this project ! Where I plan to do a that considered a Fansite merchandise shop. It combines elements of a Fansite, where fans can access information, join the Fanclub, and engage in fan-centric activities, with an online merchandise store, providing a platform for fans to purchase official New Jeans merchandise.


Objective 
The web application serves as a combining both fansite and merchandise shop where fans able to support and purchase New Jeans products , Also the website acts as an information hub for fans and visitors who want to get to know and more about New Jeans. Additionally act as a promotional tool for New Jeans, helping to increase their visibility and exposure.

Inspiration : the home page design

As I search for web screen designs, I want to keep it simple yet maintain some quality. I'm drawn to layouts that showcase the K-pop group's charm while looking modern. I'm passionate about capturing the essence of the NewJeans group and creating a welcoming space for fans to enjoy. My goal is a design that's both simple and captivating, ensuring fans have an enjoyable experience exploring the  New Jeans.


Official NewJeans Website

Fansite about NewJeans


Official Website and Fansite Link : 

I observed that the official website of New Jeans usually adopts a simple and minimalist design, while fansites tend to use colorful themes, which I also find appealing. As I explored the content within fansites, I noticed their primary goal is to introduce people to New Jeans. This inspired me to combine both approaches and create something unique – a New Jeans fansite merchandise shop.


Wireframe

I have done a basic wireframe, outlining the pages I want to design and focus on. The navigation buttons will be divided into four sections, each navigation button will lead to its respective page, allowing users to easily navigate through the website and explore the content they are interested in.

About
This page will provide information about New Jeans, giving visitors an insight into the group.

Song
Here, fans can explore and know about New Jeans' latest songs info immersing themselves in their captivating music.

Bunny
This section will be dedicated to inviting fans to join the New Jeans fanclub, becoming part of the Bunny community.

Shop
The merchandise page will showcase and offer New Jeans album for fans to purchase and show their support.


Figma 
 
Figma Progress 

After the wireframe , here I began doing the screen design with using Figma, the theme is mostly into pastel blue and pink that is inspired from NewJeans new song that collab with Powerpuff girl. New Jeans embraces the Y2K trend, which is evident in their album and overall style. Their concept consistently revolves around Y2K, also known as New-tro. This style has gained popularity recently, and New Jeans effortlessly brings a plain yet kitschy high-teen look to life with their fashion choices.

Just incase if not sure about y2k style : 

Y2K aesthetic 

Hence, to experiment with this style, I opted to avoid an overly aesthetic approach. Instead, I aimed for an "New-retro" look while retaining the pastel colours and incorporating NewJeans elements that I obtained from their official website.

First Design of NewJeans  

At first the idea is to more focus onto to shop , however , I find it hard to do as I do not know how it will be works into Animate CC , when I started my first ever scene in Animate CC is was hard to animate and to make it interactive, therefore I have to rethink it and shorten it down the flow and make it easier 

Finalise the design 

While finalise and redesign the design , I try to search for tutorials for relevant tutorials that able to works , I have changed into buttons that are on the top that are  under the NewJeans logo.

Animate CC Progress

Animate CC Overall Progress 

First trials in Animate CC

My little goals is to do something that caught "attention" at the first sight , where my idea is to turn the CD on the first screen design and allows to click button and move to the next page


It was followed the tutorials where have to label and organised well all the layers, therefore when doing the actions it will be clear and easier to use the code snippets. I have label it into actions layers, content and nav

Classic Twins Animation in Animate CC

Most of the scene is where I do some simple animation that when clicks the button it will show up into the screen. When double click each content, it will showed up the content inside, where most of it I had used classic twins , ease in for animation.

Reflection

Finally, I've reached the end of this semester, and completing this final task feels like a good ending achievement. I know and understand that I could done it better and well with adding more interactive animation to the web, however due to the time limit and is just really burn out my mental health, my shoulder pain are getting worse due to my own sit posture and of course lack of sleep.  I should just done something simple and achievable for this task, However, is it still enjoy when being able to work on something I genuinely  Even though it was challenging to use Animate CC, I persisted and watched numerous tutorials to figure things out. It was tough, but I'm proud that I managed to overcome the hurdles and solve the problems I encountered. This experience has taught me valuable skills and the importance of perseverance and need to done in SPEED. I'm grateful for the opportunity to explore my interests and learn new things in the process.
