Strengths Effective use of color and scale to indicate the time. Very original, creative interface. Quick and easy to the tell the time accurately. Weaknesses The closeness of the minutes could make it difficult to tell the time for some users. The interface lacks some vibrancy and movement, a bit too static. Opportunities Could improve the graphic quality of the interface to give it more depth and make the user experience more engaging. Could combine the two rectangles to tell both the hours and minutes in the same space, and perhaps the seconds as well with over lapping colors? Threats Need to add credits and legend to the interface as well as the ability to show the two specified times.

Pros: the clock is easy to read and has a simplistic interface which is great.The scripting is working so your technical design is good. because of its simplistic design it would be great for younger people because there is no way to confuse the time.

Cons: visually there is something missing, its is a easily read and understandable way to tell the time but some more flare would help the creativity of the design. no way to set the time and also no way to tell that it is a wrist watch. some people may find that 5 minute blocks annoying and hard to be precise but its not a big issue.

Recommendations: Add more detail and creativity into your design people love fashionable uniqueness. add a wrist band and a clock interface so people know they are looking at a watch. add buttons to se the time.

Overall: This is a technically sound piece of scripting and it does serve its purpose as a watch, but it would be better to see some of your creativity being put into the design.

White hat: It works in real time and works with the time specified on the computer. Interface easy to understand, along with the instructions.
Red hat: looks a bit plain. Didn't get an instant feel of attraction to the clock.
Black hat: Doesn't look very fashionable, very basic and simplistic in design.
Yellow hat: works according to specifications and really easy to read the time without waisting time counting each side.
Green hat: has a really good concept and base line idea but needs to be extended.
Blue hat: Technically the watch works and a good use of action script but visually the design and idea to the watch is good but just needs a bit more work.

Strengths:

• Original and creative representation of real time.
• Demonstrates high competences with Flash animation and Actionscript programming.
• Visually sound production values
• Clear instructions

Weakness:

• With Minutes separated into 5 unit blocks, it is a bit hard to determine exact minute of time.
• No reference for Seconds measurements, so also hard to determine seconds of time.
• Numbers a bit hard to read, especially along minutes side

Opportunites:

• Maybe make visuals more consistent with each other. Seconds is represented as three dimensional column, but hours and minutes are solid block colours.
• Adjust font/size of numbers and increase readability.

Overall:

Great clock! Very original and creative concept! Look forward to seeing the final polished interface!
