PRODUCTION REPORT 1

Writer's picture: jordlovepsujordlovepsu

Since I re-uploaded my project proposal last week, I only had a week to start my production. However, the past week had been filled with note-taking, brainstorming ideas, sketching, and a start to researching. My progress for my project's timeline is coming together just perfectly and I am right on track.


User Personas

I had created user personas to help understand my user's backgrounds, demographics, and skills better. This will help create a sense of who will be using my application design and how it may affect them. It also helps me understand what they are looking for in a television remote and how it can make their lives easier.


Here are some examples of my user personas:




Sketches

I started sketching ideas for my re-design of the SmartThings Application. Sketching helps bring my future vision to life. The design may change, but it's a start. This also helps me figure out what I want the application to look like and what design would be easier for the user to understand.


I am trying to go for a sleeker and minimal design but still getting all the necessary buttons in. I am also trying to make the navigation and directory easier for the user.

Research

I had started doing secondary research for my project. I have been researching to help build design ideas as well as function ideas. I researched about different smart TV remote apps including, Roku and FireStick as well as researched other case studies for my topic. I also researched different remote buttons and which ones are more important than the other.


I also analyzed the current interface of the SmartThings application to determine what I think is difficult or could be different to get a baseline to understand what I am looking for to help re-design this project.


Planning Ahead

My next step is to create a consumer journey map. After that, I will be continuing my secondary research as well as starting to conduct my primary research. I will begin by making interview questions then I will be conducting interviews as well as creating a questionnaire. My goal is to find qualitative and quantitative data from the research to support my project. I plan to also finish my sketch ideas and also make a consumer journey map.
