Utilize este identificador para referenciar este registo.

Resumo(s)

In this master thesis I researched history, heritage and cultural aspects related to Portuguese coastal town Peniche. Investigation also covers multimedia storytelling, visual identity, editorial web design and user experience. The aim of the research is to better understand Peniche cultural identity from a foreign resident perspective and to share this knowledge about coastal communities living there with the potential visitors, using graphic and web design as a method. In the practical part I collected stories of the local people and presented them as an interactive contemporary storytelling experience, by designing and building a multimedia webpage. Furthermore, I designed a visual identity of the project as the part of my master thesis practical work as well. I developed my skills as a photographer, visual storyteller, graphic and web designer, showing the variety of my professional expertise. Moreover, I also explored how contact between different cultures can be a constructive experience for a designer. The ultimate goal of this project is to inform people, especially tourists, that Peniche is so much more than surfing. The main motivation of my research and practical work is to give something back to the community, to network with local people and to spread awareness of Peniche heritage. “People of Peniche” website is the final result of this master thesis and represents a cohesive combination between technical and ethnographical elements.
