Entrepreneurship: Showcase
As part of an entrepreneurship course, we researched, gathered feedback, and created an app called Showcase to help actors and others in the film industry connect and advance their careers.
Showcase’s final demo:
As part of this course, we created a business model canvas centered around the app, and interviewed professionals who would use our app to connect with others. This led us to create the prototype and focus on the features and aspects that we did. Namely:
- Creating and supporting connections between actors
- A highly customizable profile page containing the artist’s works, demo reels, appearance, skills, credits, and education
- Allowing filtering of users by experiences, common connections, and skills
