Stealing your way to creativityANN(A) LOSEVA AND MICHAEL GRIFF IN OCTOBER 4TH, 2014
Michael Griffin
Did you not want to have this as the title of the page. For balance and for not needing a picture? Another reason? Shall we do this for all similar ones?
Anna Loseva
yes because i don't think i need any other info on this slide. mb we can do it for Mike&fmelt slide, but for others there should be quotes I guess..
Anna Loseva
I like the title. What's in the slide?) and btw where do we mention our sort of desirable rule to blog ab an activity?
Michael Griffin
Slide could be a picture or the stuff you just said. (or we could cut the slide!) basically just saying like "it is fine to use as a place to get activities BUT... more would even better for everyone'
Anna Loseva
this sounds like an ad part a bit to me, by the sound of it..I don't know if audience can participate here but quotes from comments and blogs here are good mb
Michael Griffin
ok previously i think you said you wanted to hear people say how they might use it. Maybe that can be a different slide? Do you think "why others like" is too far? I am ok to cut this as well. I mostly wanted to give room for what others (who have participated) have to say.
Michael Griffin
Maybe cut this slide? Or just call it "why others like FMELT"
Anna Loseva
it's gonna be good with quotes from blogs and comments imo
Anna Loseva
feels to me like a smooth/ sexy/ witty intro into the pres is missing here.. something about activities, ideally. Or a random pic that you can tie in (because you can). Or asking participants some question. Or complaining I/you/we use the same activites over and over.
Michael Griffin
great ideas. let's think about it. Maybe the type of thing you mention would be better on the second (post intro ?) slide?
Michael Griffin
my (best?) idea at the moment is just picture of real flashmob.
Anna Loseva
we can choose among these or use whatever else
Michael Griffin
what about all 4? Do you think the pants (free) one is too sexy/crazy?
Anna Loseva
it looked crazy yesterday but now mb it's fine, esp when there are 4 of them
Anna Loseva
what list is that?
Michael Griffin
a list I have to make. :)
Anna Loseva
looking forward to it
Michael Griffin
Hmm I am not even sure where to go with this. Is it really like a flashmob?
Michael Griffin
the more i think abotu this the more i think we could cut it....
Anna Loseva
yeah i think it was a case of random name-giving to movements
Michael Griffin
I found this comment function quite helpful when working with Laura.
Michael Griffin
When an issue is solved we can hit the resolve button. It is fun.
Michael Griffin
We can cut this slide whenever
Anna Loseva
so we will. I enjoyed how you brainstormed slides))) thanks!
Michael Griffin

Your Questions
Michael Griffin
nothing to add here (and on next slide) about discussion or something like that?

Michael Griffin
