The Narrative

1. MMS 100 Group Project submitted to: Prof. Myra Jill Siason by: Gonzaga, Joanna Marie Mendigoria, Samantha Yorro, Marilyn The Narrative Multimedia Development Cycle Project Runway: A Documentary

3. Assessment / Analysis • This project made us think more about how we evaluate multimedia documentary. • In thinking through the answers, we clarified — to ourselves — what works for us, and what doesn't. back

4. The Needs Assessment Phase Decide on your content. What is it that you actually want to present in your multimedia product? • The group decided to produce a multimedia documentary that is comprised of a collection of our outputs in the forums (doodles, forum 1 and forum 2) which will be made available in CD or internet. • The content of each page is short, intimate, fast-paced and well suited to both the user's proximity to the content and the typical online attention span. • This project will express itself as a collection of related elements and yet a unified narrative. The design will try to engage the user on a deeper level and leave a more lasting impression. • and this will be called A Project Runway: A Documentary back

5. Front-End Analysis Phase • Audience analysis Essentially, our target audience would be our FIC as the product will be submitted as our group project . Also, our classmates who might want to have a glimpse of our creative work. • Technology and media analysis Accessibility is the main concern of the group, so the group’s output will require the very least from the audience, that is to have a computer access with a CD-ROM or an internete. The project will be made using the Adobe Premiere Pro. • Situation analysis The group project would not require an instructor to explain it. It is expected to be a user-friendly and understandable. • Extant data analysis The output of the project that we will do is already of existence. It can be found online, even on television. What differs maybe is in the motivation on how we will prepare, process and present it to the audience. • Task analysis The mission/objective of this project is to deliver a high quality and accessible multimedia product which incorporates different multimedia modalities we have learned in the MMS 100 course. • Critical incident analysis We have identified critical tasks from the merely important tasks.. Critical tasks involves concept as to defining the project, locating and organizing possible resources. Important tasks involves the actual doing of the project, that of the design, implementation and evaluation phases. • Cost analysis We don’t think that coming up with our output will cost us monetarily because resources are available among the parties. But mainly, what would cost us would be the time and effort in coming up with a nice project. back

6. The Design & Implementation Phase Design • The project is a webpage-inspired or a tv program-inspired • Title graphic at the top • Sounds will be heard as text, images, videos and animations were shown • It will be a continous multimedia video show that contains the following: • 1 – Introduction ( includes author and short product description) • 2 - Compilation of our doodles submitted • 3 – Compilation of our stories • 4 – Short message from the group Design Layout

8. Implementation • In the implementation phase, our main objective is to achieve our set task/goal. • We have to adhere on our agreed design and lay out noted in our Design Phase. • The sequence of the scenes should be well organized. • We also have to consider the impression of our viewer, it should be well fitted to the target end user. • Coherence is vital in this phase of multimedia development cycle. • The message we want to relay should be delivered in a chronoligal order, as to avoid confusion to the viewer. • Integrated sound, video, graphic and motion pictures are well chosen and executed. back

9. Deployment • The group agreed that the output will be made available either in a CD or internet • Prior to that, we will be testing the design in a low-fidelity prototype. We will try to run the project in different computers. This way we will know if our project is accessible and compatible with other computers. back

10. Evaluation Phase • In this phase we will do our own project assessment. We will also welcome the opinion, response or reaction from the target audience. This will enable us to determine whether we have achieved and satisfied our goal. The following benchmarks will be our guide in the success of this project: • Are we happy with our product? • Have we delivered the project on time? • Have we met the set design description? • Have we met the end user’s expectation? • Have we imparted the message we want to relay with the viewers clearly? • What further improvement are needed to make it even better? back
