His experience in business and both the digital and film industries serve as the foundation for the development of well managed, diverse new and exciting mobile applications.
Custom Makers of Great Apps!
How do you create an app that is going to be widely used?
That’s the key question that we focus on at Fission Media. The app must address a ‘need’ –whether it’s to entertain, educate, facilitate or sell.
The Process
Every media project starts with an idea. We help you realize that idea via the key steps to developing mobile apps: Defining the need, the market, the competition, the potential for sales…and then defining the structure, the user interface (UI), the server connectivity (APIs) if required, the user experience (UX), design mock-ups, cost estimate and timeline for completion. You are involved every step of the way, from the production plan through the stages of prototype, Alpha and then Beta testing, and finally the launch into the iTunes or Google Play Stores.
