Facebook Trip Highlights
Product Experience · 2014

Facebook was exploring ways for people to share better stories about the places they've been.
A team was assembled in Seattle to build products related to travel and other place-based stories, and this project was one of the experiments we launched.
Within a week of coming home from recent travels, you are prompted to view highlights of your trip.
Posts you and your friends made are automatically aggregated into a single storybook with gestural interactions for swiping through the narrative.
At the end of storybook, you are prompted to share your trip highlights with friends.
I designed the keyframes of the storybook and helped develop ideas on how to enrich the narrative with maps, friends' posts, and other implicit data points about the trip.
A system of layout templates was created, taking into account posts with and without photos, posts involving multiple photo uploads, and place check-in stories.
