The scope of the project was the entire design process, from research, wireframes to final implementation. Pixit Media is a tech-based company that was founded by a highly skilled team of engineers in the UK. Over the past decade, they have established themselves as a leading provider of high-volume data storage and transfer, working with some of the world's top production studios, including Media Arts Lab (Apple’s ad company), The Mill, and Disney.
Having recently been bought, by a french VC firm, Pixit were in late stage discussion with a number of high-profile product London agencies, ultimately they went with me as we could be more highly integrated into the team and offer less management complexity.
Working with such a highly technical product the first task was to build empathy by meeting users and discovering firsthand their workflows, goals, and current pain points. Research: interviewing current users, interviewing stakeholders, competitors analysis.
I worked closely with the team based in New York and Scotland to define the branding, create user flows, prototypes, and designs for the web app.
