“The Fixer” Website
This website was an experiment to create a unique experience through sound, illustration, animation, and text. It tells a story of a girl who climbs a mountain in hopes of finding a cure for a curse that’s been placed upon her.
- Date Spring 2018
- Client none/class project
- Project type web design + illustration
- Fonts used Yeseva One, Noto Serif
- Outside content laptop template designed by Freepik https://www.freepik.com/free-psd/laptop-mock-up-design_1041411.htm
The story goes from bottom to top, and to experience the story, the website’s user scrolls upwards to give the feeling of climbing the mountain.
At different waypoints a sound plays to illustrate what’s happening in the story, such as an earthquake, a tree falling, or the atmospheric noise of the inside of a cave. A parallax scroll in the background moves at a leisurely pace, slowing the speed of the story and encouraging the user to not rush through, but take things at a stroll.
The text and image are meant to invoke a storybook feel, as the story is one that can be enjoyed by all ages.
The website can be viewed here.
