PRODUCTION PROCESSES - WEEK 3

Also missed Tues and Weds lectures this week cos my son was still unwell. The meeting at Sequence is arranged for next week. These are the questions we have prepared to ask at the meeting

1. Is the majority of your business client based or speculative work?
2. How is yur team structured in terms of in house and freelance expertise?
3. Do you use a standardized project cycle model on each job?
4. How do yu encourage collaborative working and successful communications with your clients
5. How do you test your work before completion, i.e User/Expert Testing?

We have emailed the questions to Sequence so they have time to prepare the answers.
I am looking forward to visiting Sequence next week .

The work for the remainder of this module can be found on my:-Live Doritos Brief Blog

PRODUCTION PROCESSES - WEEK 3 -LIV E COMPETITION WORKSHOP (THURS 6 DEC)

The proposed activbity for this lecture was to work in small groups and analyse the YCN and D&AD live competition briefs.

As i was the only one to turn up for this workshop today it wasn't possible to work in groups on the proposed task. So Stuart and I looked at the winning entries and how they had followed the brief set. We then looked at this years YCN & D&AD briefs and we decided on looking into the Windows Live Brief in more detail.

PRODUCTION PROCESSES - WEEK 2

Untunately due to my son's ill health i missed the two lectures they had this week. The lectures were on project life cycles and project manager responsibilities. I have viewed the powerpoint presentations for these lectures and also borrowed the England & Finney books on Managing Multimedia and also a book called Web Sites That Suck by Willis and Flander (1996) from the library.

John, Nick, Nigel and Lee have arranged for us to visit Sequence next week on 12/12/06
