كيف الحال يا اعضاء المنتدى؟؟

اتمنى انكم ف احسن حال ،، لقد راودني سؤال ولم استطع ان احله هلا ساعدتموووني ف حله ،، ولكم جزيل الشكر والسؤال هوو ،،

Every year, an independent film production company sponsors a short film contest. The contest is open to

anyone who wants to participate. Because of new technological advances, two main categories are available:

traditional film, with actors, cameras, etc., and digital film, which requires that a person use a computer to

do all the film production. Actors can provide the voices, but all visuals must be done using computer

animation. There is no restriction for the film topic, but it should be something that could be run as a

preview to major film in a theater, be provided on the Internet, or be distributed on small wireless devices,

such as cell phones. Therefore, the length of the film should be 2-5 minutes long, and it should be

appropriate for an audience under 17 years old. Alex is a senior student in the computer science program at

a university, and he is earning a minor in film production. He is very interested in everything related to the

digital animation industry. He is determined to participate in this contest and win it. He applied for and was

awarded a grant for $5,000 through his college to work on this film project. He could use the money to pay

for any special hardware or software that the university could also use. He could also award small stipends

($500 per person) to people who help on the project. Alex knew that he would have to convince several

people to donate their time and energy to help him make a great film in time for the contest, just 10 months

away. The first-prize winner in each category received $100,000 and the opportunity to participate in a major

film contest. There were also prizes of $50,000 and $25,000 for second and third place. Alex really wanted

to use his computer and project management skills in the film industry, so even if he didn't win a prize, he

wanted to gain valuable experience to help find a job after graduation.

Tasks:

1. Research information on making short, computer-animated films. What type of software is typically

used? How much does it cost? What type of skills help people produce animated films?

2. Alex knows it's crucial to get the right stakeholders involved in this project. Develop a list of the

people, their roles, and desired skills that Alex should try to find to help him produce this movie.

Assume that all of the people would be students, faculty, or staff at Alex's university who would be

willing to volunteer their time, and get up to a $500 stipend, for working on the project. Assume that

Alex's main strength is in computers, and he has good organizational skills. He is not artistic or

musically inclined, however, and he has no great story ideas for the film. He'd like the film to be

funny, but not many people share Alex's sense of humor.

3. 2-Prepare a project charter for the Short Film Competition Project. Assume the project will take 10

months to complete (starting September 1st with final submission due July 1st) and the total budget is

$5,000 plus unlimited volunteer hours. Alex estimates that he will spend about 20 hours per week on

this project and serve as the lead technical person. He's asked you to be the project manager, and

he'll work closely with you. Use the project charter template and examples of project charters in

Chapters 3 and 4 as guidelines. Assume that the project sponsor is Alex. Include the main roles for

other major stakeholders, as identified in task 2 above.

4. Research the types of hardware and software that Alex and his team could use to produce their

short, computer-generated film. Assume that the university has several resources available, Alex has

a state-of-the art computer system with a lot of software, and remember that there is a $5,000

budget available. Describe at least three realistic configuration options for what hardware and

software to use. Then prepare a weighted decision matrix, including at least four different evaluation

criteria and their weights, determine scores for each option, and calculate the weighted score for

each alternative. Use the weighted decision matrix template on the companion Web site and include

the option descriptions in the same file. Print your results on one page.
