Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Our company is in the middle of developing an entire music platform. We are looking for a team to work on the designing of the website. We have a solid development team with some great experienced developers but they need the assistance of some website designers to connect with and ensure the project flows well. We are always on the lookout for innovative and fresh UI and UX ideas that will help our users.

This will involve:

  • Conducting background research on our existing web application for the product. We are happy to provide a walkthrough and other resources to help bring them up to speed.
  • Identifying key areas of our current website development and what areas of focused might return the best results in the design outcome.
  • Learning and using various software design tools. We strongly recommend students learn how to use Figma as this is the main tool we currently use in the project.
  • Creation of a screen by screen UX / UI prototype of a web application which can be used on all major browsers and be mobile friendly
  • Conducting UX / UI testing with real potential users potentially involving paper prototypes or other software tools to support this
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:

  • Familiarize themselves with our current project.
  • Familiarize themselves with Figma.
  • Design and build inside of the design tool all the needed screens for the development team and for the prototype of our product
  • Present the final design screens to us with the context of all their choices they made, problems they encountered (DOCUMENTATION, DOCUMENTATION, DOCUMENTATION is 110% required), and next steps they recommend.

Bonus steps would include:

  • Conducting any sort of user testing on the prototypes to ensure ease of use and to collect user feedback.

Final deliverables should include

  • The design screens and all assets in a shareable format
  • A presentation as stated above of the final designs
