02.02.2026 - 29.03.2026 Michael Chan Henn Loong / 0363611 Major Project 2 / BA of Design (HONS) in Creative Media / Taylor's University Major Project 2 - Final Year Project INSTRUCTIONS  INTRODUCTION      For this Final Year Project, I worked together with my group members, Ian, Jordan, and Nathan, to develop Beacon, a gamer matchmaking mobile application.

So I have to start working on my prototype. First of all, from the brief for Task 2, I'll need to change my proposal into an interactive design plan and walkthrough demo, showing how the animations and interactions will actually look and behave. So now I have to prepare one interactive design plan that is built on my Task 1 proposal by focusing specifically on the motion and interactivity: 1. Preparing Interactive Design Plan Included in plan: Each page + its animation (For example: Home page → feathers fall on load, title fades in.) Interaction type (scroll, hover, drag, click). Trigger logic (On hover → feather glows, On scroll → back...
