Planning - Dating app

 Creating a fake Tinder match screen :

For our film opening, I am going to create a Tinder- style "match" screen, using Canva rather then just using the real Tinder app. 

What I am going to do :

I plan to use Canva to design my own Tinder- styled layout. I will insert a photo of our actor and use it as the profile picture. After this, I will add the elements that resemble Tinder's structure such as..

- A heart icon ( like )

- An "X" icon ( pass )

- White background

- Name and age

To effectively go about this I am going to combine these two sample pictures I found on the internet that resemble Tinder's interface.

From this picture I am going to copy the size of the profile picture, as well as the name and age on the bottom right corner of the picture

From this picture I am going to copy the heart and x buttons which are placed under the profile picture. Doing this will help the audience clearly understand what is going on. 

Why am I doing this ? 

I'm going to design Tinder's layout so it will be instantly recognized by the audience and to quickly communicate the idea of our actors matching with each other through an online dating app. It will support our film's theme, which involves romance. 

Expectation :

By creating this layout myself, I will have full control over how it looks without having to compromise with Canva's templates and be left with something I'm not satisfied with. This should also be easy for the actors to pretend to press "like" and match with the other actor. Helping it look more realistic.
