Assignment 2 - Conceptualize the App

I came up with two ideas for this: a)A game where fans of BBC Fiction shows pick their favorite program and gain points to unlock extra content. People can get points by checking into real-life locations that are important to the show, by completing quizzes about the show in general and episodes specifically, and by commenting in the forum section. Earned content can include photos from sets, character bios not normally accessible in the show, cast/crew information/blogs, sneak peek videos, and access to air dates and trailers early. b)A forum app which gives a user-influenced, behind-the-scenes look at the various shows currently being produced, with focus on ongoings of the show production and people during the off-seasons. Gives information about what the cast and crew are up to via blogs and videos, and has character extras (blogs set up not unlike those for the cast/crew/show in general). The users would have the opportunity for interaction with the cast/crew, by being able to comment/leave questions in a form similar to that of Tumblr. Extra content such as ringtones and photos might be unlocked by interacting with the application. I think I'm going to go with the second one. Since the BBC already has blogs made for some of the characters, not to mention Twitter accounts up the wazoo for cast/crew AND characters, it actually wouldn't be a stretch to assume they could be updated.
