Screen Based Experiences

In a group of four we discussed current interfaces and screen based media to start the idea generation for this brief. As well as outlining various interface experiences we also discussed the user experience. It then became evident that as we use these interfaces on a daily basis, we can easily see what makes a good/bad user experience. 

Amazon Prime 
- Frustrating to use due to the poor organisation of each page
- Getting to the program that you want is a long process due to the design of the website
- Although the main page may have similar qualities to its competitors, the design does not give the audience that excitement feeling that they get from other streaming websites such as Netflix

This is a demonstration of a poor user interface. The audience is of key importance when designing for screen and it is evident that the design has not been tested on the audience before being produced sufficiently. This is something that is of importance to consider when designing for a particular audience. Although you may think a design will work, the only way that this can be fully determined is by testing it on the audience.
