Transferring Photos to your Computer from your Camera : Needs Analysis
By: Myrna Maas
The reason that this project is a need to the online and offline community is for the knowledge, without the technical jargon of all other websites who host tutorials of the subject. At the moment other websites covering the topic of tutorials on how to download photos from digital cameras contain little to no images of screen captures, and contain a large amount of technical terminology. For audiences containing an older generation, this seems tired and intimidating, turning them away almost instantly. For the few who give the tutorials a chance, they tend to find themselves confused and have a higher possibility of giving up.
By using a fluid color scheme, animation, and frequent use of images/screen-captures the user will be able to follow along without feeling overwhelmed by the technical aspects of the subject. Overall I hope to make this easy to understand and fun enough so that the user learns the subject quickly and easily without having to refer back to the tutorial again.
