Bumbershoot App

Case Study
Overview

A concept piece based around the current usability problem of the existing Bumbershoot App.  The current app is bloated and has a lot of unnecessary buttons.  The redesign is a helpful tool for when the user is at the festival, allowing for easy directions and music discovery.

​@ General Assembly
As an Interaction Designer, I feel the great responsibility to create sensible and pleasant, even exciting experiences. People matter, so the creation of products and services should reflect that. My background in animation helps me to understand and design for people in their own environments, and aid in their adventures.
