Global TV iOS App
A brand new app designed for a digital future.
Major Redesigns
As the lead designer for GlobalTV, History, Showcase and Entertainment Tonight, I worked to create a templated design approach that could scale for each of Corus’ properties. Various brands would have content expectations that would vary drastically, so I built a system of design standards that worked to ease the amount of duplicate content work. For example, the Global TV App shared assets with the .com, where formally it would have had to be cut and done over 15 times.

Interactive Experiences
As a bonus, I offered my skillset and love of photography during official Corus sponsored events for their biggest brands, including : Global TV, History, HGTV, Foodnetwork and ETCanada. Events included show openings with Mike Holmes, Lidia Bastianich, Fashion Week, Counting Cars, Susur Lee and many others.
