SkyShowtime homepage redesign

A simpler, content-first homepage that helps people find what to watch and take the next step.

The challenge

The homepage had become cluttered. User feedback showed that films and series were difficult to distinguish and new content lacked visibility. Analytics showed that 85% of users did not interact with the second half of the page.

The hypothesis was that a streamlined homepage, with content at its centre, would improve engagement, conversion and scroll time.

My contribution

Developed the hypothesis and led the creative brief. Created, tested and iterated the designs, then produced a full rollout plan.

  1. Used customer feedback and performance evidence to identify friction.
  2. Designed a clearer hierarchy with larger content tiles and more visible studio branding.
  3. Separated films and series, introduced top-10 content cues and clarified pricing.
  4. Tested the experience and used the results to inform further iterations and rollout planning.

Other parts of the page

Popular content at a glance

Numbered rails give popular titles more prominence and help visitors understand what others are watching.
