Description: University at Buffalo admissions was considering new content for the site and brainstorming ways to show a more true-to-life view of life as a UB student. Ideacodes created concept designs that staged the story of a fictitious student and her day at the university using photo sequences and short diary entries. A time-based and subject-based navigation system allowed visitors to jump through her day in a nonlinear and linear path. These original concepts were later turned into a series of student-shot videos that were shown on the UB admissions website. (See the University at Buffalo Admissions project.)
