Since my thesis idea is an animation I decided to make my user scenario about the website I will also create for the animation.
Derek is 16 years old. He likes to solve riddles, play video games, and fiddle with computers. He is what you may call a geek. At school he is usually the one people with problems with their computers and electronics. He also works as the AV at school and is known by everyone. One day he passes by a showing of thesis projects by the Design and Technology Department and decides to go and see what is inside. There he sees many different projects, ranging from animation to installations. He comes across a display where a wooden board of some sort with bowls of black and white stones is displayed. Above the board he sees a screen playing a short film. He watches as two people playing this game becomes something of a battle. After watching the film, a link is displayed on the screen for more information on the film and on the game played. He is interested and takes a card, which has the name of the creator and the site. There he finds information on how the movie was made, and links to where the game can be learned.
Paul is also a 15 years old. He likes to play video games and hang out with friends. He likes to play soccer and usually out playing with friends in either a sport or video game. Unlike Derek, he does ok in school and does enough to pass the class. Only form of puzzle he would figure out would be from video games or finding ways to beat his opponent. He also comes across the Design and Technology thesis show, but instead of his interest in the actual show he was dragged along with his friend. He looks around and finds some interesting things, but not many hold his interest. He finally comes upon a screen where two characters are fighting each other in fierce combat. It reminds him of a time when he was playing a video game with his friend. He finds it somewhat interesting and decides to also check it out. He finds out about the game and the idea of the game interests him, making him want to play and see if he can feel the same as the characters in the animation.
