| Summary: | Collaboration has always played a big part in our technological advancements and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. The field of video post-production, which Quality Control is a part of, is quite large, involving many people and processes that can be hard to organize. One possible solution to structure the workflow is to introduce an online collaboration tool in the form of a task management system. This thesis focuses on exploring which functionality and design that should be implemented in such a system. By using literature studies together with interviews, iterative prototyping and user testing, it was implied that a task management system could be useful as it would increase workflow and user experience. Some functionalities like sorted lists, automated reporting system, the dividing of assets, and gradually saving progress were deemed exciting and potentially useful. A final user interface based on said functionalities was created and user tested.The flow and design of the interface gained promising results based on both flow testes and qualitative comments. A time-based comparative test showed that sorted lists and automatic reporting system were 150% more efficient than not having it. The other suggested functionalities were also shown to be of interest, but further research needs do be done to be able to draw conclusions.
