Week1- Web Team

In my junior year, because of my interest in communication, I was the emcee and the chief of advertising for the National Taiwan Universities Music Competition. Except for planning many activities for promote the competition, our team made a series of short films and designed a website which brought in unprecedented numbers of contestants and audiences. Since then, I understood that a good website is very important to a group, an activity, and even a company. It will help customers or audiences know some information and understand the details of the company easily and conveniently.


Just as those readings said, for a large website each part will be performed by many people. Also, because no one is perfect, thus we need experts. Our team was divided into three groups: content, graphic design and technical team. Each person is responsible for their respective mission according their professional specialties and interests. After we discussed about how to lead audiences to understand our competition and how to attract people to join out activities, we confirmed our goal and do our best to try it. In the process of designing this website, I found that the important thing is communicating with each small team and our sponsors. Why? Because we had to completely understand the demand of each part and fully mediate, we could firmly go toward the direction where we all want to go.


There is an old saying “United, we stand; divided, we fall.” Each part of a web design team is closely connected. As long as we can go for the same objectives and play our proper role, the website would be great for our company. These readings make me know more information about the process of a website design/redesign and comprehend that there are so many and indispensable steps in designing a website. Thus, I believe I will enjoy the atmosphere of a team work and seek my own position to do well.


In this quarter, I hope that I can help our team operate better. I can share some experiences of the Asian users in some websites to compare some websites in United State; besides, I’m more interested in visual design because I’m sensitive in color and a little skilled in Photoimpact and Photoshop. Moreover, I would like to acquire more knowledge in content creation in order to understand what content or materials would fascinate audiences and lead them to visit our website again. Of course, I would also like to have a better sense of the roles of others. Recently, I have begun to learn Dreamwaver and Flash. Although I still think that they are too difficult for me, but I’ll try my best. Hope I can use them well in the near future.
