Homework Exercise- Week 1

Simpson Exercise (in class)

Neighbourhood website

Person: Barney Gumble

He would see it as an opportunity to drink. He is a social drinker.
He is influenced by Homer because that’s how he started drinking.
Kind of like ‘octoberfest’ more like a festival. (beervana?)
He is definitely time rich. He lives alone so this would be a great opportunity for him to socialize.
He took a dance class so music and dancing could also be a good idea.
Could also be an event to get his life back on track and away from alcohol.
Win win situation
Emotional person and also a doer. Lack of self control and is easier to persuade.
Free Alcohol would attract this person the most. Social becomes a bonus for him. He could meet a lady.
He wouldn’t go if there wasn’t any alcohol. The location should be close to him cause he is too fat.
If we promoted it as a more formal event, he probably would back out.

As a designer a simplistic and to the point event website. For a guy that is barely sober something complicated is out of the question.
