Design leaders agree. Prototyping and user testing are at the heart of every successful product. Testing prototypes is not only the engine that propels truly user-centered design, but it also saves you time and money by preventing errors. It improves team collaboration at all levels and helps you sell your design ideas.
In this course, I will take you through the workflow, tools and techniques I have used while working in commercial projects for brands such as Vogue Magazine, Bulgari, Squarespace, Sony, Virgin and many others.
I’ll show you how I prototype almost everything, from early ideas to complex WebGL interactions.
And we won't only talk about user-testing. With a very practical approach, we will use tools like Figma, Principle or After Effects plug-ins to quickly create beautiful video-prototypes that will help you pitch design ideas, convince business leaders and seduce investors.
