Redesigning the Film Barking and Dagenham website will allow students to easily navigate to the "Make It Here" program, equipping them with the skills and experience to enhance their careers. A modern theme and UI will improve user engagement and interaction, making the website more appealing. Furthermore, by enabling local professionals and suppliers to register in a database, they will have better access to local talent and businesses, fostering a community.

I collaborated with stakeholders to create a comprehensive sitemap, utilising information architecture principles and focusing on the hierarchy of information to ensure a user-friendly navigation system. Through discussions with stakeholders, we aligned on user goals and determined the essential pages to include on the website.

The stakeholders requested additional pages for the website, so I conducted a card sorting workshop to restructure the navigation system and ensure a more intuitive user experience.
