Bedroom Scene:
It was commented that the bedroom looked too neutral and the user couldn't tell the character was a girl. To correct this I added a heart poster to the wall, just to hint to the user that this is a girls bedroom, I didn't want to add too much and overwhelm the user so I feel a simple poster works well.
Diary Scene:
Feedback received was that the diary scene looked jumbled - there were too many arrows and the user got confused. Also one user commented that the sliding content over the book looked strange. Changes I made were to add a 'cross' instead of a back arrow, to symbolise the closing of the diary and dots that symbolise the turning of a page. I feel this works a lot better and now users will understand how to navigate. I also made the book fixed so the content no longer slides over the book.
Phone Scene:
Comments I received on the phone scene were that users were overwhelmed by the amount of buttons on the phone (they also didn't understand why some of them worked and others didn't) and again they didn't like the use of the arrow as a back button. To correct this I edited the phone so only active buttons were shown, I also changed the arrow to a cross like for the diary scene. I feel this makes my piece coherent and helps with user navigation.
Button Changes:
It was mentioned during user testing that users thought I should make my buttons more obvious that they were links. From this feedback I changed the look of my buttons - I added a boarder and made the background colour change when hovered over. This should make navigation easier and it also makes my project look more tidy and professional.
The final improvement that was mentioned during user testing was that some users didn't quite understand the relevance of the last scene - after the confrontation between Charlie & the female protagonist the scene cuts to a phone and a voice-mail message from the girl's mum. User's mentioned that they felt my project would be more effective and dramatic if this scene was cut out.
Sound:
In terms of sound users mentioned that more was needed. I have corrected this issue and have now implemented sound all through the project.
