EP // BRIEF 3 // D&AD PEARSON // THREE ANIMATED E-MILY SCENARIOS

I've previously discussed the three scenarios in other blog posts (Storyboard post) but this blog post are the scenarios in context. These will be put into the final video for submission. They allow the judges to get a feel out how e-mily would actually work in context. It allows me to present my vision and to really show off what e-mily can achieve with any social messaging platforms.

Maths Homework (1st video)

First off the user gets a notification from another student within Facebook Messenger. The student asks if the user has the Maths homework that needs to be completed by next week. The user replies suggesting that they will check. The user then begins to type out a call out function. Call out functions acts as a trigger to indicate to e-mily that she is being called. The call out functions consists of two '//' which the user writes.

The user types '// homework' and in return e-mily brings up a number of categories relating to the keyword. The user taps Maths homework and the user is shown the homework in more detail. The user can then send the homework after clarifying whether they want to send the original homework or send the revised version. Once the user has chosen, the homework gets sent across to the other student. The student can then decide if they want to download the homework straight from Facebook messenger or if themselves have e-mily they can also add the homework to their homework tasks within their own e-mily application.







Completing homework within Messenger

e-mily pops within Facebook messenger indicating that the user has a daily revision question. The question is what is 741 ÷ 3. Along with the question Emily also provides the user with the opportunity to solve the question within Facebook Messenger. If the user wishes to solve the question within the platform the user can use the 'fingerpad' feature by tapping underneath the question as shown in the video. Once the fingerpad is activated the user is given a UI where there is a box for workings out and a box to submit the answer.

Once the answer has been submitted e-mily automatically logs the answer within the user's revision task, the revision tasks can be visited through any messenger app or can be accessed by visiting the app.




Group Collaboration 

The user is within a group chat within Facebook messenger and both students need access to the calendar to find out what time their group needs to be in tomorrow for the presentation. As the students are not sure how to access the calendar from the university's website, the student then asks the user whether they can find out what time they have to be in for the presentation.

The user then types the call out function and types the keyword 'calendar'. e-mily then provides the user with a number of options relating to the keyword. User then touches 'calendar' and up pops the calendar. The user then taps on the day of the presentation which is the 22nd. e-mily then brings up that day in more detail, showing the schedule for the entire day. Once the user is happy they can then send the schedule for that day across to the group chat. Once sent the other students can then download the day's schedule or again if they have e-mily installed they can also add that day to their own e-mily application.
