MySpace Sports
MySpace (also a FOX company) and Scout Media collaborated to create a MySpace Sports section. For this I worked with product management at MySpace and project coordinated within Scout. The biggest challenge was staying within MySpace’s signature UI, which at the time was quite a bit more cluttered than it is today, and yet still create a clean and usable experience for the end-user.
In addition, I made some suggestions to improve the MySpace navigation by concepting a new header. The new header highlighted where the user was within the layers of a complex IA. While MySpace did no immediately take on my suggestions, they have since then redesigned their header to be slightly more usable and simple.
