DIRECTV is a satellite television service with 30 million customers. I worked on the User Experience team for their cutting-edge set top box receivers, mobile and tablet applications to help deliver the ultimate television experience.
In designing the 10 foot experience, I tried to create a thoughtful, simple, straightforward, and streamlined lean back experience. Some of the challenges include making it easy to discover content and features, the limitations of the remote control, and designing a user interface that is used from all types of users, ranging from the person that just wants to watch TV to the ones that want to get the most out of their experience. Features I worked on included the Main Menu, Search, On Demand, MediaShare, YouTube, and Pandora.
