We would require following pages and click-paths as per the requirements with supporting responsiveness for iPhone & iPad (both portrait, landscape views).

Pepsi sales reps in the field will use this app for showing these presentations in front of customers. Client will be using this application to present each page of iBooks file which will be easier to manage on Mediafly and render the page contents or images or available drilldown links on the page to achieve similar features through this application (instead of using iBooks app on iOS devices).

We need two resolutions from this design challenge, such as "iPhone (portrait & landscape - 750x1334)", "iPad (portrait & landscape - 2048x1536)".

Please refer attached document (PepsiCo Interactive Presentation.pptx) and sample 'iBooks' (Sample.ibooks) for your reference to understand the workflow and presentations. Please request in forum thread or cantact PM on OR system for getting the access to these attachments.

Requirements: This challenge is meant to be focused on the designing the actual "iBook" area within the Mediafly Interactive. All pages in the iBook should be created using Mediafly Interactive theme as per the attached document.
The navigation to get to the content is already solved/handled by the existing PepsiCo Theme. Do not worry about changing the navigation.
- We need you to focus on the iBook piece.
- The navigation *within* the iBook and how that navigation is handled, how the content is rendered, etc.
- The content pages of the books is what needs to be different and needs to be templatized.

Goal: We are looking for designs for the content pages of the books. You should be designing new versions of different book views (i.e., home, top section, subsections, content, etc.). These are the major areas where we need you to focus on creating a more elegant and innovative look. You could find the detail document in "PepsiCo Interactive Presentation.pptx" file.
- The attached document gives overall idea how Mediafly Interactive theme works.
- We need innovative ideas from designers how the current ibook pages will be converted into Mediafly Interactive.

You should be creating something new, easy and innovative designs. You could refer iBooks color branding theme for this app designs. We look forward to seeing your ideas from this challenge and let us know ifyou have any questions in the forum.
