Tizen App Factory
After completing a successful series of projects re-imagining Intel's Meego operating system for netbooks and tablets in conjunction with Intel's UK user experience group. We were then invited to be a part of their forthcoming Tizen mobile OS initiative and commissioned to create 48 original apps for the new platform within three months. The apps were to be used as open source building blocks apps for other developers and needed to be fully free of licensed content or APIs.
I assembled a top team of talent starting with a rock star UX Lead–Tyesha Snow–to guide the team's daily progress. Sheryl Maloney was hired on as the Production Director and the three of us hand-picked a dozen super talented UX practitioners, designers, art directors, front-end developers and sound artists to concept and create the apps. I affectionately dubbed them 'The App Factory' and supervised the creative design output and group ideation sessions.
