Reflection on group identity project

The group  identity project was a fun project for me. The group and i choose a character who was well known for being suave, sophisticated and interesting.  It was humorous to go online and find out that there are websites dedicated to writing funny, witty sayings about how awesome he is.  The social network we used was myspace, i would not use that again.  Myspace was slow, confusing and overall very dated.  We wanted to use it because we could design the layout of his site and because we could play music that matched his interests.  Those aspects were effective and fun but overall i would not use myspace as a professional avenue for social networking.  The page we designed was for fans and people that wanted to find out more about his suave persona.  It was for a younger audience (pre 21) as well as had a link put on it that would link the page to his website which was for 21 years old and up.  The project overall was fun to try and put ourselves in someone elses shoes and design a page that we feel the client would appreciate.

  1. This sort of reflection will be perfect for your paper that accompanies your individual online identity performance piece. You really show an awareness of audience, media limitations and affordances, and tone.
