DESIGN: Translating the Design Across Devices

Widescreen TV
When translating the design for television, the design needed to be dramatically enlarged so that all type was at least 28pt as this is the most readable font size for television. This meant that less content was show on the TV but the layout remained the same. Furthermore arrow buttons were added into the design where scroll is used on the web as television don't have a mouse scroll feature as part of their input.






iPhone
It was initially difficult to translate the design to iPhone as it's not a device that is natively used in landscape mode like the other devices. Therefore when translating the design to iPhone I switched the interaction from the sides to the top of iPhone this meant the same design could be implemented and work functionally the same but at the top of bottom of the screen rather than the sides.
