As part of a university module we had the opportunity to work with a real design agency on a 'live brief', it was a UX/UI project that they were working on for their own client OSN. OSN is a prominent TV provider for the MENA region and were in need of some design solutions for their sub brand ‘WAVO’, an 'On Demand' monthly subscription service. The live brief project saw us conceptualise and prototype a TV EPG that ‘suits the changing viewing habits of today’s audience’.
Given that this project required no branding input or development on my side, I could focus solely on the user experience aspect. This is where I decided to research some background information regarding EPGs in general, I looked at standard EPG designs as well as other television related content such as the Amazon Fire TV service. This was done in order to gain a sufficient understanding of how users currently interact with their TVs and how I should go about designing for this project. Draft design and final designs can be found below.
