Too much time is wasted creating that big design upfront, only to find that users don't like what you have built once it has been released. Today, we are in danger of not only over-designing, but also designing solutions to the wrong problems. In this workshop, Chen will demonstrate how to experiment with rapid design techniques to ensure design solutions for the right business problems are delivered to the right target audiences rapidly and continuously. He will show how to create design solutions fast, as a team, and how to work with a client to get products that really matter out into market early. Good design involves elegantly solving problems despite the constraints. More often than not, time is one of those constraints. In this workshop you will be forced to think and act quickly, exploring how to quickly work as a team to address a real-world problem; rapidly analysing customer, industry and business trends, behaviours and needs to validate ideas; and learning how to apply the latest design thinking, Lean Startup, Lean UX and agile methodologies, to bring your prototype to life and ensure it is as useful as it can possibly be.

Which KPI to focus on?

#UX #Design @Ultraman

Align device experiences

Analyse the data

• 55% of Europeans prefer Android phones, 23% prefer iPhones• 80% of tablet use is at home: tablet users spend more online than smartphone users• 26% use tablets daily 1 to 4 hrs, 7% more than 5 hrs per day• Primary device is smartphone (77%), but tablets rising from 12% (2012) to 23% (2013)

Who is it for?

Solve the right problem

Identity Motivation

Explorer Personal curiosity, experience something new

Samaritan Does something on someone else’s behalf

Achiever Looking to satisfy specific interests or goals

Recognition Seeker Reputation / status of place or brand

Recharger Restoration, contemplation

Now that you’ve analysed the data...

#UX #Design @Ultraman

What’s the problem?

Who is it for?

I like going to places and events I see in movies like shops and restaurants.

My husband and I used to go on movies dates. I miss having time, just for the two of us.

It’s hard finding things to watch as a family so we end up watching what the kids want.

AnnIdentifier

JeffRecognition seeker

I love playing games, especially if there is a prize, but it needs to be challenging.

I voice my opinion on blog sites and like to hear what others think about hot topics.

I do a lot of research but can’t always find info on a new film or unusual director.

I try things out first then tell others about it so they know what’s good or bad.

My friends look to me for inspiration, so I end up organising meet ups.

We discuss movies we like but keeping up-to-date with everyone takes a lot of time.

For Jeff the experience seeker who wants to be recognised for his knowledge, “ReelSide” is an App that lets him watch the latest films, but unlike other entertainment apps , “Reelside” let’s him compete against other movie geeks to win exclusive viewing privileges
