user story - young patient - explore treatment options

[denesnori]

As a young person suffering from depression,
I would like be able to navigate the App myself,
so I can easily explore the options for my treatment.

Overview

Initially, simple Illustrations that capture scenes will be created in Adobe Illustrator are listed below. Together, these will make up a storyboard (they will each include embedded text), depicting a non-human character exploring treatment solutions for depression. Each scene will be exported as a static .png file and stored in this repository. From each scene inside Illustrator, characters/objects will be exported individually as .SVG files, these will then be embedded inline in a html file. TweenLite will be used to animate elements from the svgs, and TimelineLite will be used to sequence animations to satisfy the storyboard.

Characters

• Blue Dog (main)
• CAMHS Dog
• Therapist Dog

Hi guys, looks like you're coming up with some fantastic ideas -- just wanted to reiterate that the age range is 11-18 so it'll be important to make things which are appealing to adolescents and not too childlike (something we have grappled with on the paper grids)

[njsfield]

Hi Rosa, apologies I should of asked for your thoughts before commencing with some design work to satisfy this user story.

Currently illustrations are being created to build an interactive experience. Up until this point I've chosen a dog as the main character(s) to be metaphorical and not gender/enthnically biased, however I realise this character choice may be too childlike for the lowest age bracket of 11!

I can change the characters to human, show you some samples and check with you then if it's okay to carry on?

[rosatown]

Hi Nick, Dan and I had a chat just now and we are happy for you to carry on with the dog -- good not to have gender biasing icons and it gets complicated with humans. We've actually had some feedback from young people that they would like animals so that's good, and the animals are not too childlike now that I see them. So carry on! :)

[njsfield]

No problem, will carry on :) thanks for your input and any problems let me know

[rosatown]

Of course! Thank you
