WP 5 Creation of a multilingual website based on Neandertals

WPL: ADIA

The aim of this WP is to create an International website based on Neandertals. The website will be created by ADIA in conjunction with RBINS and the new state of the art research in Neandertals being performed at VUB and ULB will be incorporated into the website. An experienced half time graphic designer will work with ADIA to create the website and to incorporate 3D models in the website.

 

Task 5.1 Content of the website – TL: ADIA

ADIA and RBINS will work on the content of the website. This document will then be the basis for the development of the new website. The document will be validated by RBINS scientists (anthropologists, archaeologists, palaeontologists and geologists) and by teachers. The follow up committee will also be invited to evaluate the website.

 

Task 5.2 Scenario – TL: ADIA

ADIA will create the scenario and prepare the storyboard. This will include creating a document to detail the structure of the website, menus and submenus and will detail how the different pages will link to each other using a mind mapping approach. This document will then be the basis for the new website. This scenario will be submitted to the follow up committee.

 

Task 5.3 Text writing and collection of documents – TL: ADIA

ADIA will write the text which will accompany the website and prepare the documents to upload to the website.

Task 5.4 Creation and design of the website – TL: ADIA

  • ADIA will work on the creation and design of the website. It will follow the graphic chart defined by the graphic designer of RBINS for the Gallery of Human Evolution exhibition hall. ADIA was also involved in the creation of the Gallery of Human Evolution

  • The new website will also be linked with the RBINS website.

 

Task 5.5 Upload and integration of the 3D models and animation on the Sketchfab platform – TL: RBINS

  • Each model will be uploaded onto the Sketchfab platform and checked for quality control

  • Each model will also be prepared (quality of the model, background, light, default texture, labels)

  • Models will be organised in Sketchfab through a series of folders

 

Task 5.6 Testing of the rendering and interactions – TL: ADIA

In this task, the rendering of the 3D models/animations will be evaluated on different devices (screens, tablets, mobile phones).

 

Task 5.7 Translation in Dutch and English – TL: ADIA

The initial website prototype will be in French. ADIA and RBINS will then work with native English and Dutch speakers to produce the text of the website in Dutch and English.
