One size doesn’t fit all: Designing for online courses means you are designing for legibility across laptops, tablets and mobile phones. All of these devices come in a variety of sizes and aspect ratios.

The video and the content had to be designed such that the key information was front and centre regardless of the device it was being viewed on.

The target audience was also 8-12 year olds which means that the video had to be short to prevent oversaturation of information.

I aimed to inspire a sense of wonder, showing that the world is more than it seems.

Instead of the usual black-and-white atomic visuals, I used vibrant colors matching the course's design to create a cohesive and engaging experience across the course content.
