MovieDesi App UX UI Design

movie desi cover image
The primary objective of this project is to develop a user-friendly and efficient mobile application tailored for Indian movie screening theatres in Canada. By incorporating features such as notify , seat selection and digital ticket delivery, the goal is to enhance accessibility and convenience for patrons, ultimately revolutionizing the way audiences engage with Indian cinema in Canada. I’ve decided to develop this project as a Figma clickable prototype. This approach allows me to showcase the app’s flow and functionality in an interactive manner.
As a part of my third-semester program in Emerging Multimedia, I am required to select a technology relevant to my field of study and intended career path for the future. Given my interest in pursuing a career in UX/UI, I have decided to design an app prototype

Why I chose this theme?

As a movie enthusiast and an immigrant in Canada,I've encountered significant challenges in findingIndian movie screenings. The absence of a dedicatedapp and the poor user experience on existing websites led me to focus on this project.
The existing large theatres like Cineplex don't screenmany Indian movies, especially my regional films. So whenever I try to find information about moviescreenings, it takes a lot of time and effort.
“ Approximately 5% of Canada’s total population is of Indian descent, with Ontario accounting for around 13% of its population having Indian roots.”

SWOT Analysis

I have selected two companies for SWOT analysis out of four options, which will be used for competitive analysis. They are:
Joss & Main
humber craft SWOT 1
Etsy
humber craft SWOT 2

Pain Points

After conducting an audit of the existing website, I have identified the following pain points.

Design Challenge

How might we design a more user friendly, consistent visual flow website for this product. How might we establish effective communication between students and graduates?

Possible Solutions

  • Redesign buttons, program and event cards , home page banner, student profile page etc.
  • Change the placement of sections; for example, the copy about Humbercurrent currently located in the footer should be moved to the banner section of the homepage.
  • Change stock photos/graphic designs especially program thumbnails.
  • Adding a meeting session feature so that aspiring students can engage in virtual meetings with current students.
  • Redesign the events section.
  • Adding a gallery page to showcase students' work.
