For the final project in the Graphic Design class that I took this past semester, we were given the task to pick a website and re-design it, which included creating a mobile app. Since I wanted to spend as much time on the redesign as possible, I chose the TTV Channel, as I am already familiar with the brand. Here are the fruits of my labor.
Second, I also made some functioning prototypes with Invision. They’re FAR from complete (though they do satisfy the assignment requirements), but I wanted to explore design variations for different pages. They do, however, show how the site and app would look and work in a practical sense. If you want to take a look, the links are provided just beneath this sentence.
The home page, to me, seems a bit busy and/or cluttered being nothing but images/thumbnails plastered everywhere, but I do like where you’re going with it.
Your approach to the mobile app is very slick and I’m pretty sure I couldn’t design something that looked that pretty.
My only real problem is that on the shows tab, the images for the different shows are off center and aligned a bit to the left which doesn’t look the best in my opinion. my only other nitpicks are that the bios on the mobile site should probably send the user to a new page, as it’s kind of annoying having to scroll down to read the whole bio. Also, the featured video feels a on the home page feels a bit too big, and as Takuma said, maybe decrease the number of images on the front page. Overall though, this looks pretty good
It has been a long time due to other projects, but I have decided to continue this project beyond the original assignment, so now I present the first major update to this project. The link to the InVision prototype can be found here. https://invis.io/GFCQZ6WPE#/245498881_Home_Main
Here’s a run-down of what has changed since May:
Home page has been updated with newer videos.
All links to the TTV Message Boards are now active.
New Videos on the Home page now include the name of each video.
Tenebrae Invictus has been added to the Cast page.
All of the cast members (sans Eljay Johnsen) now feature both their stage and legal names on the Cast page.
The Shows page has been updated to reflect the current show line-up, including the additions of Ninjagocast and TTV Reviews.
The placement of the images on the On Ebay Today page has been altered to match the grid system for the rest of the site.
Revenge of the BIONICLE and FIDGET FIDGET added to the episode list for On Ebay Today Season 02.
YouTube link for the episode How to Get Nintendo Switch and More now live.
As always, feedback is appreciated. I don’t know when I’ll have another update to this project ready, but I hope to have it up soon!
