Discussion post:

More videos please

I'd love to see more videos of the sessions. The slides are OK but not as useful without the narration. Yes, I was there, but I would like to view some of the presentations again, they were so great! It seemed like everything was being videotap...

Response to the discussion post:

Anyone using iRise for prototyping?

take a look at Axure for ID / Prototype
I started playing with Axure on my personal site click on the annotations and the colors at the bottom www.StashMedia.com

iRise tries to do too much, such as requirements etc, it hooks into req pro, if you are looking for that its good.

if you are looking for ID and prototyping
take a look at axure demo
http://axure.com/tour.aspx

I wrote an article on Axure but i could not publish it because Accenture does not endorse any specific tools....

Hiya. I've put together some extra notes on each of the models -- what they're best suited for and how to use them. Take a look here and let me know if you have any questions about any of it.

This was a blast. Thanks for getting me back into drawing. The people were great, the drawings were classic, and Mark taught the hell out of this workshop. A truly great experience!

Response to the session:

Good Design Faster

Hi Perry,

My shameful admission is that before I started using this process, I didn't really DO a formal brainstorming step all that often. So, for me, they templates and the sketchboard are a good way to force myself to explore lots of possibilities before diving too deeply into one.

That said, if you have some good established brainstorming practices, keep using them! This is definitely not a replacement. Just another tool in the toolkit. If you do start using them, I'd love to hear how it works for you. (That goes for all of you!) Please keep in touch.

Leah

Response to the session:

Quick and Easy Flash Prototyping

Alexa and team did a good job running the workshop, and clearly explaining how to use Flash for prototyping. I know feel confident to go away and play with flash and try and prototype and create movies. I can see as a non programmer it will take me quite a while to learn it all esp the coding side.

However, I do feel that using Flash for prototyping is like driving your car to go one block. You can do it, however it may be faster to walk or catch the bus. Not the right tool for the job. If you are essentially creating videos/scenes/conditions just to link from one page to another, it isn't fit for purpose.

I'd recommend a more simple tool e.g. Axure, or alternatively get someone to code it
