For this assignment, myself and Nicola Fuller were to create an e-book using a selected text of our choosing that fell under selected topics one of which was Psychology. We chose Sigmund Freud as the basis for the project. Instead of just re-making a book into a digital form we decided to use various texts about Freud and his theories and created an ebook that would follow a patient through a therapy session with Freud. The e-book was created using InDesign and Adobe Digital Publishing Suite for interactivity.
COMD 415: Enhanced Ebook Design
First generation ebooks mapped old patterns onto new technologies, giving new form to traditional "pages" with electronic readers. Second generation technology, the tablet platform, allows for a rethinking of content presentation from the ground up. Full use of a tablet for book publication requires reconsidering the nature of a book itself. It might include video, animations, kinetic typography, hyperlinks, social networking. This project-based course will explore issues in designing for this exciting new medium. Emphasis will be on prototype creation, though visiting professionals will present and discuss current workflows and practices.
Also open to 3rd year design students with permission from the instructor.
