In 2015, I was brought on this project as a UI/UX designer to integrate new experience features and create new title cards, interstitial cards, and stickers themed after the LEGO® Ninjago series and The LEGO® Movie. After getting briefed on the project, I knew I had to quickly immerse myself in the LEGO® world. so I (willingly) spent weekends watching seasons of the Ninjago series along with The LEGO® Movie.

I ended up designing and illustrating 70+ stickers and 30+ title/interstitial cards for the app.

For an experience standpoint, I designed features such as designing easy to understand affordances, streamlining the movie making process, integrating “Add from Camera” and “Add from Album” paths, and a “Snap (fingers) to capture” feature in creating a stop-motion video.
