BFI FILMOGRAPHY

The BFI Filmography is a web based tool to explore the archive of UK feature films data from the beginning of film history until now. The BFI wanted to make this rich information easily accessible and compelling to researchers, film buffs and the general public. I helped create the user experience including data analysis, proof of concept prototypes, UI design and data visualisations.  

There was a massive data set to work with which the devs formatted into a usable spreadsheet so that we could begin to analyse it. To gain further understanding of the data I took part in a number of workshops with BFI key stakeholders who knew the info and target audience inside out.

Collaboratively we mapped common themes occurring within each film’s data, such as the people and companies involved in its making, year of release, genre, and more. Creating a logical hierarchy in which people would search for information.
