Intro:
We need the front page redesigned of VIDEO SOCIAL NETWORK site, first and foremost, and then work on the rest of the site, transitioning to the other pages. We need the whole site to flow, nice and clean, but definitely have its own appeal from the front page to begin with. So that when someone comes to the site, they say wow, and want to stay and come back to it. This site is unique enough to have its own identity.
A summary of the project will be the following:
- the new front page of our should be like tinychat and [login to view URL] to where users come to the site and either sign up or sign in...and be able to see video snapshots of live rooms
- it will be different in that a user, once he signs in to account, will be directed to their account/profile page (kind of like interface when a new user signs in to [login to view URL], we like this) rather than the main page now where all the videos and broadcasts show up....they can choose to either start live or join in on a live chat, if open, from their account page
- and pictures/videos that a user uploads will only be visible to friends when they visit that user's page (get rid of all those tabs so nothing publicly accessed)
***so the personal preference of a user will not be focus of the site, that should only appear on their page***
The following is what we want in order to separate Gotfolks from ustream, [login to view URL], youtube, etc by enabling users to star in their own show, and add co-hosts of their choice in their show to broadcast/join in with their cam/mic. This way it's not just text chat, but can give the host a sense that they're hosting their own show or such. The broadcaster will have control over his own room, and be able to share picture or file with the room if they choose. And with the addition of the Radio into the interface, users can have more entertainment of their choice as they interact with others in the room.
Closing:
We need someone that is professional as well who has a clear understanding of the project and who can provide sample of prior work and who can submit a proposal and samples.
