Overview of Design
Composite Design 3 is a web application designed with safety in mind while striving for reasonable efficiency. Such a design should assist more error-prone users who might be less computer-savvy while still remaining efficient enough for high-volume music directors to get their job done without much fuss. Unlike the other designs, this design has been designed without a focus on playback, instead focusing on the editing and uploading portions of the task, since these are common tasks for both music directors and elves.

A detailed example of the main KaJaM! interface | The KaJaM! interface when editing an album |
Storyboard
Sketch | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Lana sits down to upload some releases |
| She opens up her e-mail to view some digital downloads |
| She opens up the KaJaM! interface |
| And drags and drops the link from her e-mail to the interface |
| It automatically starts to download |
| She continues to drag and drop links for upload... |
| And will be prompted if the file is password protected |
| When she's done uploading, she looks over what's been loaded for each album |
| If it's got correct data, she clicks "YES" (It's okay) |
| And the album is loaded and saved and disappears from the list |
| When she finds the error on Starmarker's album, she clicks "NO" (It's not okay) |
| And is given options to change the release |
| She selects "Track Names" and is given a list to edit |
| She edits the names and clicks "Done" |
| And is returned to the "What's Wrong?" screen, where she clicks "Nothing," as everything is now correct |
| Since everything has been corrected, she clicks "YES" when asked again whether the album is now okay |
| Running out of time to do more work, she leaves the remaining albums to be handled by Adam (he will see them when he logs in) |
| Hurrying to submit her CMJ lists, she opens the CMJ submission for in another window |
| And switches to the charts tab in KaJaM! |
| She clicks the RPM genre tab and uses the top plays listed there to populate CMJ |
| Her job done, she logs off, content in the knowledge that more digital media has been catalogued than ever before |
