This bird has flown...

Where the Redfern Grows was a very dynamic team that used a variety of methods in order to complete the client project. Many of our methods could not have been utilized if not for modern technology. Much of our communication was engineered through Blackboard and its functions. For example, every member of the group uploaded certain parts of the project that they completed to the file exchange. Here, all electronic files that were involved with the final product were accessible to all members of the group. This was especially useful when we needed certain common files for everyone's individual portfolio. Another means of technological help was the group e-mail function of Blackboard. Our group loved e-mail and we usually communicated via the group e-mail when we did not meet. We did not hold any virtual group meetings, but we did communicate ideas back and forth and shared these ideas in a virtual setting.
The group project centered around a video production which used other technologies to complete. I was able to teach myself how to use the iMovie software available on Mac's. It was a lot of fun producing the video and I am happy I now know the processes involved.
