Book description
Most discussion about Web design seems to focus on the creative
process, yet turning concept into reality requires a strong set of
deliverables--the documentation (concept model, site maps,
usability reports, and more) that serves as the primary
communication tool between designers and customers. The only guide
devoted to just that topic is now bigger and better.
Combining quick tips for improving deliverables with in-depth
discussions of presentation and risk mitigation techniques, author
Dan Brown shows you how to make the documentation you're required
to provide into the most efficient communications tool possible.
From usability reports to project plans, content maps, flow charts,
wireframes, site maps, and more, each chapter includes a contents
checklist, presentation strategy, maintenance strategy, a
description of the development process and the deliverable's impact
on the project.
The second edition of this popular book is in a larger format with
nearly 100 additional pages and contains new chapters with updated
and more numerous illustrations. A completely new section teaches
designers how to create deliverables in the context of telling a
larger story.
