This project made up a large chunk of a summer job between my third and final year at GSA. I was brought in to create a visual system to present a large research project, called Scottish Access Collaborative, which was a collaboration between Strathclyde Uni and The Glasgow School of Art, with NHS Scotland. My solution to presenting the project was to design and create a working prototype of a web-based utility to be used to exhibit/display the 'SAC' in various settings - such as to a broad academic audience or within a focus group. I set out to create a unique platform that could both be used by a speaker to give an adaptable non-linear keynote presentation and a user accessing relevant information. This was a huge learning experience for me, as I had to take on a number of different exciting roles in the project to complete it within the deadline.

These roles included:
    — Research coordination
    — Copy writing
    — Infographic visualisation
    — Front-end web design
    — UI and UX design
    — Wire-framing
    — Motion graphics
    — Photo editing
