The Brief
 
In teams of two or three, research and determine the feasibility of one idea for a collaborative creative project that involves digital media and industry.
 
The client will be a department within TAFE and their students. Each group will be assigned an area.
 
Collaborate with a TAFE department to produce a digital media marketing strategy to promote their department. Your project could be used for: publicity of courses, documenting or recording a lesson, advertising an event or function, etc… BE CREATIVE! And Listen to your client.
 
The time limit for digital media final product: 1-2 mins (think of it as a ‘commercial’ or snippet of information). You will need to be very precise and create clear outcomes and objectives; including a storyboard.
 
Write a project brief to cover all aspects of the project. Liaise with the group you are assigned to develop your brief.
     Identify all parties involved in the project and what they will do.
     Be specific with your outcomes and what you want to achieve.
 
Design and present a design solution or proposal, including your research and justification, with the intention of ‘selling’ your ideas to the client. Invite your client to the presentation, or set up a time for you to discuss your solutions with your client and provide feedback (Assessing teacher must be present).
 
Presentation requirement: Your presentation will be no longer than 10mins, including response/question/feedback time. (See below for details)
 
Journal
Each week keep a reflective diary of what happened and what this means to you, your team and the project. Include comments on what went to plan, what didn’t work and why, what you will do next and how you will go about it; this includes relationships as well as activities. You can include planning and mapping documents, images, contacts, research, and anything that assists you in the project and collaboration. This record will assist you in completing your report and should be an accumulated body of information throughout the semester. At least 20 pages.
 
Ethics & Legalities
Explore and discuss potential ethical dilemmas and situations with your team in the context of your collaborative project and document the process over the time of your collaboration. Consult legislation to inform your decisions and document your resources for reference.

Presentations
 
You will have two opportunities to present your ideas to the class & your client.
