Focusing on an idea – Moves app

After our seminar critique, we thought it would be an interesting idea to explore our Moves sketch. Moves is a really interesting app. It’s used a lot for fitness, as it can calculate your calories, etc. but it also tracks where you’ve been via GPS, and thus we can use this really well as a data collection software – something we can potentially form some kind of a narrative with.

However, on its own, Moves has no visuals via photos or videos, even though the app’s layout is visually appealing. Another thing we plan on taking from our Moves sketch is to create a ‘split-screen’ layout, with the Moves interface on one side of the frame, and have photos and videos of the journey we take on other panels of the screen. We may also be using other software as well for this photo/video data collection, such as Snapchat, Vine or Instagram. At the moment, we are using Moves as much as possible, and really getting to know the app really well.
