Idea: Enable content creators to have categories & list of all media available to view to increase content viewing (#47)

Purpose is to enable people to identify what media they want to view, including starting with a default summary view followed by viewing the categories and list of particular Stories under that.

Stories view then tap to view the channel called “Sport” then swipe down which shows the “Sport” details list to view more by more Categories and a full list of all media Stories available. Designed by D.J. Sherrets.

Snapchat today:

  • Discover lets you see media by providers such as ESPN.
  • Tapping on something such as ESPN shows Stories you can tap through, or swipe up to view something such as a full video.

Proposed idea:

  1. Start on the Stories list. Tap on the “Sport” featured media provider, which opens to showing a clip of a video.
  2. Swipe up to see the full version of that video.
  3. Swipe down to return to the clip.
  4. Tap to advance to #2 of the media of the Sport Daily Summary Story.
  5. Swipe down to go to the Sport list view which shows the category just visited — “Sport Daily Summary” — as well as other categories, and below that there’s a list of all media posts available. Reason is so people can view more media.
  6. Tap on the category “World Soccer” which opens the first Story, which is the same as listed on the Sport list view under “Recent Posts/Video.”
  7. Swipe down to close back to Sport list view.
  8. Tap on “Last Minute Game Winner” which shows that there are 140 total Stories available to be viewed by the Sport media provider.
  9. Tap to go to the next Story which is the same as the second in the list on the Sport view.
  10. Swipe down to return to Sport view.
  11. Swipe down to return to Stories view.

Comments:

  1. Opportunity is to enable media providers to include all media.
  2. Design allows for default viewing media on first tap to the media provider.
