Chase Courington doesn′t get on the stuntwood nearly enough.
- Jawfu is a group of skateboarders hailing from The Lot in Springfield‚ VA. Some of us have moved but most all still live around Washington DC. Jawfu has been around for a long time now and when I was assigned to create a website from the ground up as part of the Web Design Certificate at RMCAD I felt this would be a good opportunity to get Jawfu on the web. The class assignment called for putting into practice many of the User Experience Design principles we were learning. I created a UXD bundle which included strategy and scope analysis‚ user models and scenerios‚ site map‚ wireframes‚ visual mock ups and functioning prototypes (the UXD bundle can be downloaded as a .pdf). The original design has gone through some re–designs since the class concluded in December but the current site can be seen at jawfu.com and features W3C compliant xhtmal/css‚ javascript and ajax functionality. In development‚ is further functionality to provide a skater friendly map of DC integrated with google maps and user generated content to share skate spots‚ upload video and images of spots and other notable places in the city. Fall‚ 2009 (on–going project) (stuntwood = skateboard)
