TheTruth
A news website that's showing what's really happening in the world!
During the corona pandemic, a new online movement rose up. Fake news and disinformation spread like the virus itself on the web. I and my fellow group members were tasked with creating a website filled with different content that spoke to users. So to make the content appealing to users we needed to find something worth reading.
We thought: "Let's make a fake news website". So we did.
TheTruth, welcome to the truth. A website telling what's really going on in the world.
Corona? A plan to control us. Elections? Rigged. Our leaders? Puppets. We had a blast thinking about the content we could write. It wasn't even that difficult to come up with. We only had to look at Facebook & Twitter posts (was also a sad experience knowing some people really think that way).
So what did we create?
We wrote several articles about the coronavirus, elections, world leaders, etc.
We made an appealing logo to set the tone of the website.
We made a design that gives the impression that the website is a newspaper.
We designed a shop with different t-shirts you could buy to support the resistance.
In the end, we mostly designed and wrote a lot of content. We were storytellers making up our own stories. It was a fun experience.
