The discussion for this item of equipment took over an hour as they were at first reluctant to allow our group to have this equipment.
The last data projector which was loaned out got stolen and they never received any monies to obtain another. The offending parties did not offer or insure the item of equipment therefore people like us could have lost out.
At the moment I do not have any knowledge on how this equipment works other than it is for wall displays therefore to elimate confusion on the day for setting up the piece of equipment I will need two more people (around the mid April) to test this equipmemt out and get the distances right for projection also if Tom is free I will also ask for his assistance.
If the distances are not correct then the display will be pants!
On each day of the exhibition a person MUST NOT leave the projectors side and therefore will be fully responsible for the timetabled (showing) of group work. (IT CANNOT BE LEFT).
It is possible that we need to aquire a piece of MFI or similar which is then painted white to fix to the wall because if we have the large shop it is possible that the panels may destroy the look. Whereby if it is the smaller shop the walls are darker so the board would be needed as a contingency measure.
In saying this it is possible that I might have a rollup white screen in the house which when things calm down I will search for this item.
Need to Discuss Logically
It is good that the team managers got together and discussed whatever they were discussing but I for one do not know what the next agenda is or indeed what other than grouping the work has been decided.
I feel it is imperative that everyone knows an agenda for each week within all teams.
A timetable is required for everyone from the closure and cleanup of the exhibition back to current day. I feel at the moment there is no structure and instead of a tight knitted professional exhibition we will end up displaying bits and pieces which to other professionals will glare out problems within our infra structure! Sorry but I felt that this needed to be said!
Groups
Guys you have all done well to define the groups but what are they exactly?
When displaying the animations it is unfeasible to do them one at at time. They need to be edited into a long video so each group for example 3D is amalgated into one film this will then ensure that we get a constant run of information. I do not feel it would be professional to do each section ie 3D
SAVS, MIKE, TOM as seperate entities these 3 (IF ITS ALL THE 3D GROUP NEED TO BE EDITED INTO ONE SITTING)
