user experience for creative industries week 3

Artifacts

What Are UX Artefacts? 

•Definition: •UX artefacts are the tangible deliverables produced during the design process to communicate research insights, design decisions, and user flows.

•Purpose: •These artefacts help teams and stakeholders understand user needs, ideate solutions, and map out the overall user experience.

•Types: •From research findings to wireframes and prototypes, UX artefacts ensure clear communication and alignment.


Overview of Key UX Artefacts (some of the most popular Artefacts)

•Personas: •Fictional characters representing different user types.

•Wireframes: •Basic blueprints for layout and structure of the design.

•Journey Maps: •Visual representations of the user’s interaction with a product over time.

•Other Examples: •Empathy maps, prototypes, sitemaps, user flows.


Best Practices for Creating Personas

•Based on Research: •Use qualitative and quantitative research to create realistic personas.

•Focus on User Goals & Pain Points: •Highlight key goals, challenges, and needs.

•Personality & Behavior: •Capture user motivations and behaviors, not just demographics.

•Actionable: •Ensure personas are directly useful for design decisions, not just a formality.


For my product I will do:

Research artefact - Competitior analysis (VUE, ODION)

-A good idea would be to research competitors apps and how they allow users to access the different elements so that I can utilise these elements into my project. Crafting it into a service that is targted to people looking for local films shown in smaller theatres.

-Look at trustpilot reviews and see what people want changed so that you can create a even better ux.

Design artifact - Wireframe (Describe each element of my app)

Use your voice  Synthasise multiple sources and use them to create your argument  Example: Use theories such as the uses and gratifications theory  "why do users listen to spotifys personal created playlists" Other example is very clear and he uses the sources to compare them and connect them from the overall argument. He evaluated the sources and identified limitations of the sources she had used which worked really well.

Plus, that's the point at which a stream is monetized. This doesn't mean that you can just make an album full of 30 second long tracks though.  https://www.spotify.com/de-en/safetyandprivacy/understanding-recommendations# Recommendations are also  based on information you share with  Spotify , like your general (non...
