Designing for the BBC crib sheet

I was asked to produce a 'One pager ' for designers working outside the BBC to refer to easily.  I wanted something that could be printed on one page. I used my experience of working with indies to try address the most common problems that come up on a regular basis.

Presented as the UX Lead at the BBC @North presentation in Newcastle Manchester and Leeds in Feb 2010 on the New GVL and "how to design for the BBC". The point of this was to get  the Indie industry across the North aware of what we're doing and help themconnect and pitch for opportunities . 

*Note Michael Albers created the original document shown below some of the visuals supplied by  "in house" BBC designers.

Modern Masters BBC1 : May 2010

The Modern Masters site highlights the life and works of Matisse, Picasso, Dali and Warhol. I art directed the site build and managed the design sign off 'gates' on various parts of the project. From initial mood boards to the final designs the visual cleanness of the site makes it work well.
 
The site included of downloadable art walks in various cities around the UK.
Eddie Gachegua the designer at Lion TV did a really great job for brilliant design skills, patience and flexibility. The site produced was clean and crips allowing the content of the "Masters" to shine through.
