OUR AGILE APPROACH: 1-2-3 repeat
1. Consult
PLANNING / DISCOVERY
In this phase we ask key questions related to target audience, desired outcomes, experience mechanics, tone as well, KPI’s (Key performance indicators), metrics as well as collecting all necessary content (copy, taglines, videos, photos etc.) that care to be integrated into your project/experience.
2. Build
CREATE / CODE
The Build process begins with digital story board(s) designed to specify look, feel, interactivity and narrative. Once the story-boarded experience flow is complete and approved our UX designer’s final interface – CG team builds the world, characters/ avatars are built and rigged, motion capture is performed and imported. An alpha demo is assembled to test the experience, then refinements are made after User testing and feedback. Once we agree on the final we’re ready to launch.
3. Deploy
LAUNCH / TRACK DATA
Once your experience is launched. We track the user engagement metrics and the overall KPI (Key Performance Indicators) set up to gauge performance. Throughout the life of your product we provide maintenance and support as well as suggestions (if requested) as to how your experience can be refined. Shivoo is of course at the ready should you want to upgrade your product or embark on further projects to add to your overall branded campaigns.
