This is a project I created while doing the Google ux course and from that I decided to make a project. Not only just a project but a app that deals with individuals that go to the theater to watch movies and do not want to miss a single scene or a Beat but also empathetically and courteously provide assurance for individuals who are wheelchair-bound, parents who are watching their children, and for those who are temporarily enabled.

mission

dine and watch a app where you order food with just the click of a button through your via smartphone, and have it delivered to you directly to your seat therefore you can sit in Comfort and still enjoy the show. No more having to get up in the middle of the movie to grab snacks and wait in line, no more having to constantly get up out of the seat with energetic little ones running around the theater kiosk while you order them snacks. It can all be done with the click of a button.

Research

I decide to conduct this research based on existing theaters such as AMC being number one, Hollywood Boulevard and many other ones but most importantly the top two. I decide to do studies on:
•the amount of times a customer or a individual has gotten up to leave the theater to grab food

•The amount of time a customer stand in line to get food along with others.

•How many customers were temporarily enabled or handicapped.
By looking at three researches this proves and also bring even greater purpose to why we need an app to solve these issues and keep people going to the theaters. also that majority of these theaters do not have an app whatsoever where they can have consumers order food to be brought to them though there are selected theaters that do have the option where they bring food to the customer but it's mostly on their term or by the press of a button.

Personas

Max Max is 25 years old they have been wheelchair-bound ever since they were 8 years old, Max always love going to theater and seeing the movies on the big screen. But sometimes going to the theaters can also be uncomforting for them because of the fact of having to eat before going to the theater. For Max is already a hassle for them to going to the theater and log in their seat. Then in the middle of the movie a girl hungry and having to unlock their wheelchair and head to the kiosk , at the kiosk mostly everything is manual, they have to wait in line, they have to grab simple food like hips or candy because they can't carry big food because in order or them to move their wheelchair they use their hands and trying to hold on to food while moving your wheelchair can be quite a hassle so it has to be closed food. Max can grab a fountain drink but similar to the food they have it has to be a closed fountain drink. And the going through all this hassle they have missed a good majority of the movie. Which is why Max eats food before coming to the theater.
Andrea Andrea is a mother of three her children are very energetic and they are going to see the new kids movie that came out. Arriving to the theater before going into the movies the mothers brought her children their own candy box and a shared fountain drink between the three. In the movie theater halfway through the movie one of the children dropped there box of candy spilling all over the theater floor. So Andrea has to get up to go to the kiosk to grab some more candy and not wanting to leave the children she has to take the children with her one is crying because they have dropped their candy the other two does not want to leave the theater because they would fear of missing a scene Andrea is stuck.

wireframing & Lofi

Along with the research I have created and a good idea of potential users I'm creating this app for I am now ready to get into wireframe I came up with three wire frames and out of all four of them I chose one that I like personally and is easy digestible.
While going over the sketch wire frames I also made a few tweaks and transforming it into a Lo-Fi digital wireframe. This is just the early stage of how the app is going to operate and move therefore there are no images but simple icons and image placeholders.
I tried my best to find some individuals outside of my family Circle and friend Circle, the only thing that came close was co-workers I work with at my job an old College colleagues.
Based on the Lo-Fi test two of my co-workers stated that the camera icon was somewhat inconvenient and in retrospective somewhat useless due to the fact that if you already scanned the QR code from the beginning why have it as an option stil at the bottom. Second it is strange to have the account icon at the bottom they are mostly used to the icon always being at the top right or top left of an app.
as an option stil at the bottom. Second it is strange to have the account icon at the bottom they are mostly used to the icon always being at the top right or top left of an app. The third co-worker stated that there should be a search button where they can search what food they're looking for instead of having to navigate through the menu categories. Two of my college colleagues said the same similar thing to my third co-worker saying that there should be a search button that way the user can search up the item they want quicker instead of going to the category and having to do too many clicks the last clicks the better. But overall they did like the flow of it but of course they could be more but I reminded them that this is just the Lo-Fi beta stage.

Hifi

this is where I'm moving to my next stage which is creating a brand logo and app icon and also typography and theme for the app. I decide to go with a black red and yellow type feel but the only two main colors will be black and red the yellow will be mostly as a active or a highlighted hovering icon.
I made the icon using Adobe Photoshop I did thought about drawing a full-on character diving into some popcorn but I decided to go with the Simplicity of the use of shapes.
Now with my design kit laid out and ready along my design plan I decided to put the plan into motion by taking ideas for my Lo-Fi and take it into my hi-fi with a little ideation tweaks and color. Along with this I also added more interactivity with the use of prototypes animations and also bringing in an idea of featured items and meals based on the trending movies, and with that that's when I came out with my final product dine and watch.
