Bringing musicians to their audience
Live and Local is a concept music app that connects local artists to their fans.
The purpose of the app is to allow local artists to be paid for their work and connect with their audience especially during the pandemic when live events and gigs are not available.
It benefits fans who cannot attend shows and/or prefer virtual events to connect with their favourite local musicians quicker.
Overview
Problem
Local artists can’t connect with their fanbase due to pandemic.
They are seeing a decline in income as result and upcoming gigs have been cancelled.
They would like to find a way to perform online and host virtual events to their fans.
Opportunity
To create an application that allows them to connect with their fans.
Find a way for fans to pay for online streaming gigs so they can support their local musicians.
Research
Based upon survey questions with local musicians and music fans in my area I developed user personas to assist the research.

Sketching solutions
Sketches
In order to create a solution for Live and Local I began by creating fast and quick ‘Crazy Eights’ sketches in my notebook.
Then, I took these simple sketches and converted them into low fidelity prototypes.
I conducted some user journey mapping and asked users to complete basic tasks and observed and collate their feedback in Miro.
This helped make imporvements to the direction of the product and make it more user centric.
Design
Quick sketches and mockups give me the foundations to design a high fidelity prototype.
