Taking inspiration from Paul Alders‘s innovative e-learning interaction, I created a binocular activity to explore Arctic animals. ❄
My first challenge was experimenting with the drag-and-drop interaction to allow users to click the binocular to discover which animal they’re spotting. Then, I used Zoom regions to heighten the experience, making it feel like they’re truly using binoculars.
Finding pictures of Arctic animals online was tricky, so I decided to use AI for assistance. I used my cover picture as a background reference and used Freepic generative AI to create the animal pictures. Later, I manipulated some of the animals with Photoshop and Adobe Firefly generative AI to make them look more real and fit together.
Lastly, I discovered an Articulate challenge for background sounds this week, so I added Arctic background noise to make the project even livelier.
You don’t need to visit the Arctic to witness its incredible animals. Check out my project here and enjoy the experience for yourself.
