Sony Asset Management System
A digital asset management system for Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy
Overview
At Sony, I headed UI for Runner, a digital storage and retrieval platform. Runner housed media artifacts for the entire Sony brand including movies, TV and merchandise. While at Sony, we partnered with Pivotal Labs, a development consultant firm, which specializes in agile development, where we were able to work in short iterations to quickly develop a working system. This system had to be responsive, scalable and work for roughly 10,500 Sony employees and clients worldwide. I worked closely with UX and the development team to generate easily implementable designs and give the system a user-friendly interface.

The Problem
The digital asset system was proposed to house all of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy assets. The system needed to be able to retrieve assets as well as store metadata and tags. Each of the game shows utilized their current systems differently and determining what were the most important tools and needs for the new system, as well as implementing new tools, was a challenge and one that led to many iterations on the project.
Prototype Build
These low fidelity wireframes for Wheel of Fortune already reflect the complexity of this project. With an agile system we were able to make incremental changes that reflected the ever-changing needs of the clients.
