Who will be the audience?
Particularly families – therefore needs to appeal to adults as well as children
What is the message that needs to be communicated?
Safe firework practice and how to achieve that
How will the flash appeal to the intended audience/help communicate intended message?
Will involve interactivity to keep the child’s attention and animations to help them have a visual aid for the information if too young to read
Evaluation
I think the design is successful in accommodating for the target audience of both adult and child. The design allows this by using a question and answer format, this means it is formal enough for the adult to feel the need to participate and allows children to want to join in and interact with the pressing of the buttons and to help there parents.
The simple animation included also works well in clearly and simply highlighting the message to be put across and allows the child a visual aid to highlight the correct answers. Animations could be of higher standard if the skills required were had. The colour scheme works well as the red highlights danger and helps to give a serious feel, however the colours could be looked at, as it may seem quite dark and formal to the younger user.
I feel that improvements that could be made are better quality animations with more movement as though an actual video. The sound could also be improved by being edited to fit in with the sequence slightly better. Another improvement would be to for a text to appear with the score, a different text depending on the score, positive if high or not so much if low. This would help to entice the user to try again if the score was low therefore meaning they continue re-trying the quiz until all correct and the information would then definitely be absorbed.
