About
Screening Now is the premiere streaming service for independent films. The UI exploration required me to keep the existing branding and color scheme, while redefining the old site with a new user flow and modern aesthetic.
Screening Now has been a reputable site for some time. It can now be found on streaming platforms such as Roku. However, the brand needs to compete with other popular streaming services while keeping the social features in tact, as social media and crowd participation are a huge factor in promoting content. Viewers that value a physical copy can still do so by buying or renting content.
