Briefing
DJ
As he prepares for the upcoming party, DJ MackVibes sets up his equipment, software, and speakers. He hopes that using this new website, MackVibes, will bring a new interactive experience with his audience.
He sets up VirtualDJ and, as the crowd begins to grow, he starts the show and utilizes the website, getting a grasp on what the audience is looking for.
Audience
You decide to go a party. When you arrive at the party, one of the party hosts notifies you that the DJ is using a crowd-feedback system. They provide you with a QR code that you can scan, and have access to, alternatively there is also a link that you could enter into your mobile browser.As you walk into the party, you now can use the application whenever you want through your smartphone. The application has 3 basic screens, a homepage that tells the current song, a vote page that allows you to cast votes, and a previously played playlist of the songs the Dj played so far at that event.
