Global

Design Media 1 | Autumn 2023

For my Design Media 1 course, I created a new media player (such as Spotify or Apple Music) in Figma that featured a new element based on listeners and research from the current market. My media player, Global, uses non-algorithmic systems to introduce you to all different music worldwide. Learn fun facts about the country with the interactive map, share your with your friends your Global Picks, and filter your search based on what you want to learn!

The initial sketches of the wireframe that played a role in my concept exploration as well.

The Low-Fidelity Wireframes were the base of the app before styling. The animation and effects were then ideated after styling parts of my app to understand what would be most cohesive.

Global, is the media player that uses non-algorithmic systems to help you branch out of your regular music, learn fun facts about new regions, and immerse in different cultures.

The mood board with keywords about what the app was supposed to convey, to get the educational and fun emotion I went with rounder icons and typography as opposed to sharp.

The style guide utilized a fun, learning environment with playful colors and icons.

Mockups of the other screens in the app such as settings, album, about the artist, and a personalized album.
