It has been a well-known tool in movie-making, used to present, explore, plan, and communicate creative ideas before final filming. The communication aspect of this video-based visualization is a less-explored area, especially in the design and development of programming-based animations. This research aims to understand Previsualization’s significance in envisioning script-based web animation. Mixed methodologies were used to gather programmers’ perspectives on Previsualization in the process of designing three.js web animation. The research used semi-structured interviews and Likert Scale based questionnaires as data collection tools. The interview data of twelve professional programmers provided their perspectives and thematic analysis provided key inferences. The Likert scale questionnaire obtained programmers’ perceptions on the functions of Previsualization and the usability in the context of three.js animation. The study also used quantification to check the central tendency and the collective attitude of programmers towards Previsualization. According to the programmers, Previsualization holds functions of a good visualization and is the best way to prototype animation ideas. It can present a substantial amount of information related to three.js web animation, and it is an effective tool for designers to communicate animation ideas to the programmer. The programmers have high-level acceptance and a positive attitude towards it. They perceived it as more effective than conventional visual representations, such as drawings to present most visual features and prototype script-based three.js animations.","PeriodicalId":198528,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Art and Design","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130463298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Boamah","doi":"10.11648/j.ajad.20210604.12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.11648/j.ajad.20210604.12","url":null,"abstract":": This paper stems from preliminary observations of hearing-impaired students and interpreters at the Department of Graphic Design in the University of Education, Winneba. The study examines the challenges faced by the department’s sign language interpreters with mixed backgrounds interpreting graphic design courses. The helper and facilitator models guide this study theoretically. Adopting a qualitative approach with a case study method, data is gathered from two interpreters through a face-to-face interview. Data is further analysed using thematic data analysis. With supportive pieces of evidence, some challenges faced by interpreters were identified. Interpreters without graphic design background were found to process some unqualified information; the lack of the adaptation of visual cues, unavailability of structured concepts for interpreter use, unavailability of note-takers, the lack of recognition of the hearing-impaired by some lecturers and fast-paced lecture delivery were also identified. However, the study recommends an initiative of lecturers inquiring about hearing-impaired students at lectures to affect pace of lecture delivery, the provision of note-takers, the addition of visual cues in lecture delivery, and the design for structured concepts to be used by the department due to the practicality of courses offered. Moreover, this improves the pace of lecture delivery in the practice of inclusive education.","PeriodicalId":198528,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Art and Design","volume":"02 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127333975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Method: In this paper, Carl Czerny's approach to preparatory practices and training notes and five-finger training, more than one octave practices as well as the addition of bass clef in the left hand, addition of accidental and practices in easy scales and rhythmic practices and addition of rests in Etude Opus 599 have been investigated by descriptive, analytical, and experimental study. Result: Considering the weaknesses in playing techniques and the importance of the tonic etude, the focus of this paper is to identify the strengths and weaknesses of this etude for students and teachers. Studies have been conducted. Some of the issues raised in this etude are the age groups that can use this etude or whether there is a need for a prerequisite for hitting this etude. Or do you need to offer other practices to the student alongside this etude? In this article, we have responded to these problems. Conclusion: The quarter and eighth notes, then the addition of the combined meters as well as the triolé-eighth notes go ahead and are used in the lessons ahead of the tri-laeighth and trill sixteenth as well as a variety of rigorous. Finally, it is recommended that mechanical practices for hand rotation and speed practices and ornament notes and step-by-step practices be used for the student to facilitate the implementation of these etudes for students, as well as these practices are suitable for all ages that reach the intellectual and physical maturity necessary to perform these etudes.","PeriodicalId":198528,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Art and Design","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124677540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
