Find Concerts In Your Area 

Slim Jim came to F Sharp with the goal of helping their target audience find concerts that are right for them. As the sole UX designer and copywriter, I wound up using Slim Jim's website as inspiration to create a tile based and highly interactive concert feed that finds upcoming concerts in your area based on your music taste.

Wireframes

Without much direction from the client on their wants and needs, I knew that I wanted a highly interactive experience after viewing Slim Jim's website. I echoed the tiling effect but improved it, allowing for more interactive, dynamic, and responsive concerts to really engage the user.  

 

Design

Slim Jim's brand guidelines are LOUD. They really like bright colors, unique textures, and for lack of a better word, cluttered visuals. I conveyed this to our designers and was able to produce a design that closely matches how the Slim Jim brand feels.

Development

Working with developers, the biggest challenge was getting the tiles to respond correctly on screen resize. After multiple rounds of QA, the tiles all wound up behaving exactly as I expected, with hover effects, zooms, music previews, and most importantly - concert tickets.
