OUGD603 Brief 6: Collaboration Roles


Collaboration

Out of the submissions to The Elephant Room, myself and Dylan Stott was chosen to work on the branding for Making London event. To get a feel for what we would have to produce and the team we would be working with, we organised a skype conference call to gain as much information as possible.

Main notes from the conference:
Website to be a single page site that you scroll through
Images will need to speak for themselves
Neutral colours
The event will be in Conway hall
For the website use squarespace to create it
Use the app Slack to communicate with all the creatives involved with the event

Have the branding done by the 5th and the website up and running by 9th of April
Keep communication constant when designing the assets
The Event itself will be on the 2nd of May

From the Skype call, myself and Dylan started to work on the branding.  Whilst working, we took on different roles due to the very quick turn over, Dylan finished the logo and most of the branding assets while I worked on the web element for the event.  To help us collaborate with Elephant Room and the other founders of the event (Backscratchers, Dazed and Creative Mornings London), we were suggested to download and use the app Slack, a sort of WhatsApp for creatives to manage collaborative projects.  Talking to the group about making the website, they gave a few examples of sites that they liked the layout for and suggested that I use Squarespace to develop the website as it would be quicker and easier to manage for the whole group.
