Web Designer Mockup
I think every web designer has gone through this a couple of times. Clients love make suggestions, typically retarded suggestions that undermine a web designer’s well thought out mockup.

Let me share what we –para tukang web– had done for mockups:

  1. Menggali semaksimal mungkin apa yang diinginkan client
  2. Memikirkan konsep: untuk apa web itu dibuat, siapa target marketnya, apa yang mau di-highlight dll
  3. Nunggu materi, or kalo client ga punya, bantu cariin materi
  4. Browsing-browsing cari ide desain buat inspirasi
  5. Hunting font di web font gratisan, kalo hardisk ga punya font yang ada di imajinasi
  6. Kalo ada waktu, ke Mangga Dua dulu hunting CD font yang 15 rebong…
  7. Hunting ‘free image’ di image-stock websites, meski harusnya sih itu tetep bayar… or lagi-lagi, ke Mangga Dua hunting CD image, setelah ngewanti-wanti client bahwa image itu bisa aja bikin mereka di-sue competitor (biasanya replynya: ya udah, kalo di-sue tinggal ganti ^^)
  8. Thinking, thinking, thinking
  9. Ngoprek-ngorek photoshop, freehand, fireworks
  10. Terus? Ya ada kalanya seperti gambar di atas tadi… hehehehe….
