Designing an Interactive Comic for Mobile Phones Based on User Preferences in Malaysia Designing an Interactive Comic for Mobile Phones Based on User Preferences in Malaysia Submitted by Astria Dhita Wandani A thesis submittedMaster in fulfilment of Science of the by requirements Research for the degree of School of Business and Design Swinburne University of Technology Kuching, Sarawak Malaysia August 2013 BSTRACT TheA current trend shows a transition of information and entertainment media into handheld devices. This also attracts the development of comics from printed book and digital form in larger PCs screen into mobile phones, introducing mobile comics. Taking the direct advantages of mobile phones (i.e. vast mobile phone market, portability, and the advancement of mobile phone technology), mobile comics offers certain advantages including lightness and the ability to read the comic anytime and anywhere. However, it is also found that the shift into mobile phone influences how the comic is presented. The limited display size introduces readability and visibility issues in displaying the entire comic sequence. At the present moment, there have been many different techniques to improve readership convenience such as the extraction of the individual panels from the page and the addition of motion, sound and zooming feature. However, these techniques are lacking in considering the basic nature of comics in the production process which could influence the overall arrangement and the impact of the comic story. In addition to that, taking a variety of approaches may not necessarily be as effective in addressing the user preferences. Therefore, this study takes into consideration three areas: essential elements of comics, mobile phone user interface design and Malaysian user preferences for designing new mobile comic interface. Two approaches are implemented in this study, including the combination of ancient linear narrative and panel-by-panel approach; and Infinite Canvas approach. These approaches are argued to maintain the continuity of the story over conventional z-path reading sequence. Moreover, interface design guidelines are considered in the development process to improve the quality of the interface design and reduce some potential usability issues when reading on small screen. In the later designing process, the two designs are combined and presented as options for viewing the same comic content. This option could provide freedom for users to choose the most suitable display layout. With the combination of both initial designs and further refinements, the final design could successfully provide better interfaces with faster completion times, enhanced consistency and visibility. The results reveal positive responses for “innovative”, “user friendly”, “new interface” and “interactive”. This outcome supports the argument that the understanding of the essential elements of comics, mobile phone user interface design and Malaysian user preferences is necessary, and these are important design considerations in creating new reading comic experience for mobile phones.

  • Designing Motion Comic About Information of Indonesian's
    Designing Motion Comic About Information of Indonesian’s Traditional Medicine (Case Study: Djammoe) Y Satrio1* and A Zulkarnain2 1,2Visual Communication Design Department, Faculty of Design, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jl.MH. Thamrin Boulevard Lippo Village 1100, Tangerang 15810, Indonesia *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Jamu is an Indonesian traditional health beverage, but among young people, it is deemed out-of-date and a drink for old people. These images take form because young people only get minimal exposure to jamu and because there are modern beverages that they prefer. In this project, the theme of information about jamu will be presented in the form of a digital comic, because the interest in reading textbooks among young people has been gradually diminishing and they prefer reading entertainment books, such as comic books. This project uses a literature study. The literature study is conducted to get information about the theme and the design theories that are going to help with the process of designing the project. The final product of this project is a motion comic. Visual research study and keywords are adjusted to the target audience of this project. The result of the research is used as a guide in the whole process of making the digital comic, from the pre-production to the post-production process. This paper focuses on discussing the application of several design theories in the motion comic project. Keywords. Health, Traditional, Jamu, Young People, Digital Comic 1. Introduction Jamu according to the National Agency of Drug and Food Control of Indonesia is categorized as traditional medicine.

TM: You made a point in Understanding Comics about how time equals space in comics. But there is a stunning jewel in the surrounding stone, and if you chipped away everything else the book would still be worth whatever you paid for it these days probably like a quarter for this chapter alone. We have in stock every item we list. This is a very long book, so people have time to adjust to my style. Whereas Understanding Comics was a timeless philosophical study for the sake of the art, Reinventing Comics moors itself firmly in the late 90s, exhaustively studying the history and industry of comics as it stood in the 90s and how it may shape up in the then-future. SM: I agree with you to an extent about there being a fundamental reader participation component to comics and that achieving that transparency in comics is a lot harder than it is in novels. But I was looking for a strong emotional effect. As others have noted, "Reinventing Comics" is more a product of its time and thus less timeless than McCloud's "Understanding Comics.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2017 Abstract This dissertation explores the author-text-reader relationship throughout the publication of works of serial fiction in different media. Following Pierre Bourdieu’s notion of authorial autonomy within the fields of cultural production, I trace the outside influence that nonauthorial agents infuse into the narrative production of the serialized. To further delve into the economic factors and media standards that encompass serial publishing, I incorporate David Hesmondhalgh’s study of market forces, originally used to supplement Bourdieu’s analysis of fields.

As it makes an example of its delivery through poetry it tries to show the changing nature of poetry and art through history towards a designated act of whichever content. Transhumanism is seen as a tendency and so the dissertation imagines a poet whose practical exercise in the workings of typewriter produced concrete poetry are then tied to the coded ASCII table, emoticons and polychromatic glyphs which are subject to default visual modifications by manufacturers of technology. The dissertation then offers a view at memetic information transmission which is worked into a model that draws on Jacque Derrida’s différance. From a construction of a tree of hypothetical changes in the evolution of a state of culture of the primitive Waorani tribe, the dissertation moves to a logical exercise about hypernyms and hyponyms.
