Beautiful Monster, Day 1 & 2

Hello everybody! We have kicked off our collaborative group project, 'The beautiful Monster'. We had our first group meeting yesterday, followed by a little group activity to get the groups warmed up.

We (Simon, Katie and Cham) had our first meeting with the executive producers (Zev and Sarah) yesterday evening.

The following were discusse:

1) The basic structure of the design document was discussed.
2) The deadline for the design document was set as Thursday (23rd Arpil).
3) Getting the engine team to work on a prototype of the spiral space.
4) Filing systems and naming conventions.
5) Discussion about the ideas developed during the morning meeting.

Today Simon and Cham had a meeting with the 3 team leaders Ben, George and James.
The following were discussed:

1) Design document template which was designed by Simon was explained to Ben.
2) The importance of the team leaders gaining an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of their teammates.
3) Discussion regarding the mini project to be carried out this week, in order to see how the groups work together.
4) The flow of information. For example if one of the producers required a certain task to be completed by the engine team, we would communicate it to the team through George, since he is the team leader. Teams will always communicate through their team leads.

The concept team is currently working on the design document.

Good Luck Concept team!
Simon & Cham.
