we have all entered a movie theater where the lights are already off and we can’t see the seat on the ticket and turning on our phone screens means people around will probably feel uncomfortable. to solve this problem and aid late-theater comers to find their seat easily, the shiny movie ticket assures users only have to hold the shiny movie ticket and aim it at the cinema screen, allowing them to identify their seat quickly, clearly and conveniently without affecting the audience.

 

the shiny movie ticket was awarded the A’ design award winner for idea design category in 2018.
