This represents my 2016 thesis project, where I meticulously executed the entire UX process. Commencing with interviews, research, competitor analysis, proof of concept, and product analysis, I delved into understanding target audiences and crafting personas. The process continued with creating an experience map, wireframes, timeline, and conducting prototype testing. Additional elements included developing a moodboard and crafting a distinctive logo. The culmination involved implementing the project with iOS native technology, utilizing Swift and integrating it seamlessly with the Google Maps API.

So what is it?

Bandit is a mobile social media application that helps musicians finding their bands easier and better. A list of band and musician profiles that are populated by location, instrumentalists and genres are provided for users to browse then consider to join. They are also be able to create several types for job posting which depended on their situation such as finding substitution for an absent member for just one gig, setting up an audition or even inviting people to jam.
