How we approach projects
Understand the work before choosing the medium.
The right solution may be software, immersive learning, video, interactive media, or a combination. The decision begins with the audience, workflow, environment, and information the project must support.
- 01
Define the need
Clarify who the project serves, what they need to understand or do, and where the finished work will be used.
- 02
Work with the people who know the subject
Collaborate directly with client teams, safety leaders, educators, and subject-matter experts represented in the work.
- 03
Select the appropriate format
Shape the project around its requirements instead of forcing it into a standard production or software package.
- 04
Review against practical use
Keep the audience, operating environment, training purpose, and required information visible throughout development.
