1️⃣Single Session

Single Session mode offers a snapshot of user behavior and feedback within a single, dedicated time frame. It's a powerful tool for gaining quick insights and identifying immediate areas for improvement.

How Single Session Works

1. Project Setup:

   • Choose "Single Session" Mode: Select this mode when creating your Telemission project.

   • Define Your Goals: Clearly articulate what you want to learn from this session. Are you looking for feedback on specific features, overall impressions, or user flow issues?

2. Actor Selection:

   • Target Audience: Choose an actor who fits your target demographic and gaming preferences. Telemission's platform can help you find the right fit.

   • Experience Level: Consider if you want an experienced gamer or someone new to the genre. Each perspective offers unique insights.

3. Instructions and Briefing:

   • Clear Instructions: Provide the actor with concise, step-by-step instructions on what to do during the session. Be specific about the areas or features you want them to focus on.

   • Open-Ended Exploration (Optional): You can also encourage the actor to explore freely and share their unfiltered thoughts and impressions.

4. Session Scheduling:

   • Single Time Slot: Schedule the session for a specific date and time that works for both you and the actor. The platform helps coordinate availability.

   • Session Duration: Determine the length of the session based on the complexity of your game or prototype and the depth of feedback you're seeking.

5. Observation and Interaction:

   • Live Stream: As the session begins, you'll have access to a live stream of the actor's gameplay or interaction with your prototype.

   • Think-Aloud Protocol: Encourage the actor to verbalize their thoughts, feelings, and decisions in real time. This provides invaluable insights into their experience.

   • Optional Interaction: You can choose to remain a silent observer or engage with the actor via text or voice chat. Ask clarifying questions or guide them towards specific areas of interest.

6. Session Delivery and Analysis:

   • Video Recording: The entire session is recorded, allowing you to revisit key moments and analyze the actor's behavior.

   • Session Summary: The actor may provide a brief written summary of their experience, highlighting key takeaways and suggestions.

Benefits of Single Session
