HUI Weekly Roundup #178: State of VR UX, Prototypes inside Sketch, and why you should switch to Figma
Curated on Thursday June 1, 2017 by Sagi Shrieber and David Tintner
Hey all,
This upcoming week we have our Master Class with Ayelet Batist on VR embodiment, and just to get us all on the same line, Ayelet wrote an extensive article on The State of VR UX!
This article really sheds light on where VR experiences stand, and what are some of the things we should watch out for as designers.
One more update before we leave:
Next week David will be hosting a webinar called “The Newsletter Revolution” where he’ll talk about newsletter marketing, and why newsletters are so effective for building your brand as an organization or an individual. The class is free and online.
Yours Truly,
Sagi & David
