We asked Bella Hurrell, Deputy Editor of the BBC News Visual Journalism Team, about what makes a good product prototype and what are the challenges that you have to face when building them. In this video, she shares with us the tools that the BBC uses for building their prototypes and what their vision is.
Build quick and dirty prototypes that you can test with people. Don’t invest huge amounts of time in something if you are not that sure about it […] and give up when it is a good time to do it!
