ncfe Academy Advert Project By the Rising Stars Academy. Slide 2
Introduction The Rising Stars Academy Slide 3 How we remade our
ideas We began with a group brain storming session about what we
could change about the video and website to improve upon the
originals. We then took on the feedback we had received from
various different people. In addition to this we realised that the
iBook would be a viable extra media access for users to find out
information. During this initial meeting and subsequent meetings we
worked out what we would needed to complete the project and
discussed the time frame in which we hoped to complete each task.
Using this to our advantage we were able to effectively work as a
coherent team. Slide 4 We decided it would be best to break the
project down into three sections. This made it so that we could
easily identify the roles that would be required for each section.

discussing what we could change about the different sections.
Although this was time consuming, it allowed us to fully improve
our ideas. Although some of the changes where only small we all
felt that the impact would be much better due to changes and would
be more suited to our target audience. Slide 6 iBook Roles Ben

shows our initial idea for the iBook and the version that we
actually went with. As you can see we had to change the idea due to
the different structure of the iBook app. Slide 8 Once we had
decided what was going to be put into the content and the roles
were decided, we went about creating the content. This content was
for the iBook and thanks to the offer by Mike and Sam, who gave up
there time to explain to our iBook team how they could go about
making them and keeping in theme with the ncfe iBooks. In total the
whole process took between 3-4 days. James, Sam, Ben M and Tom all
wrote the content for the iBook by listing to everyone in the
group. They were able to create a unique insight into how we as a
group felt about our 15 weeks. Slide 9 As a group we all agreed
that it would be best if the iBook had more interactive features
then the website as it is a different access media. This meant
people could go and download the iBook as well as looking at the
webpage. We all felt that the addition of the videos made it easier
for the user to take on board the information as well as being more
memorable than just reading text. Using the videos allowed us to
give a first hand account. Slide 10 Trying to make the iBook more
interactive, it was suggested that a game could be implemented into
the iBook to make it that the user could do something else rather
than just read the text. This was headed up by Tom and James. Slide
11 The finished game will be integrated into the iBook. Thanks to
Tom and James we now have a much more interactive version of the
iBook. Slide 12 Webpages Roles Ryan Richardson Ben van den Berg
Slide 13 Webpages During one of our group discussions we had to
decide if we were to change the design of the website. They were
many new ideas floating around due to the fact the teams had been
merged, however as a group we thought only minor changes should be
made. A huge factor that we wanted to change was the integration of
the video into the website. Slide 14 So once we began we had to
figure out what we wanted. We began looking to code it ourselves,
we felt that if we coded it ourselves it would be a much better
achievement. However much to our disappoint the scope in which we
wanted was just to complex for us to understand and code ourselves.
After this we sought help from the ncfe to see if they could
provide the answer. Slide 15 Realising that we needed help we went
about emailing people around ncfe. This resulted in getting help of
Andrew who works in marketing. We feel that Andrew went above and
beyond to help make our project a reality. Thanks to this we were
able to get our project of the ground and become on the actual
website. Without Andrew we would not be able to actually use or
have any idea how to create the website without him. Slide 16 The
finished webpage complete with the video integrated onto the page.
Slide 17 Video Roles We decided it would be best if we all took
part in the video. Slide 18 Video Since the success of our last
video it was agreed that we would do another video which would be
an improvement on the original. We wanted to improve the video as
much as possible so that it really could make it clear that it is a
fantastic opportunity. Filming the video was a lot of fun for
everyone as it gave us the chance to put our point across to the
viewers. Slide 19 Sam was our dedicated director and writer for our
video. He really exceled in creating a video which flowed from
scene to scene, this allowed us to make sure that we made an
amazing video to insight other candidates to join the Academy. All
the videos that we included in our project were edited by Ryan who
spent many hours trawling though video footage and other images.
Ryan a massive thank you. Slide 20 Slide 21 We wish to thank
everyone who made our project possible, from all of the Rising
Stars THANK YOU! Thank You !!!
