More collaborations with Barb.

Things are coming along perfectly. We agree on everything discussed between us, and we're open to more suggestions either of us mention; the template designs we both considered together, too, is an exciting little project to work on. We have everything we need and know what we want, we just need to print/record/put things together.
I think it's a blessing we both forgot our materials today, because what we needed was a raw discussion on the agenda and assignment. We sifted through each theme within the assignment, and discussed what would fit best, the template itself to represent each theme and how many poems should go under it.
Barbara has invited me back to hers (or I can record my section on my laptop) to record the material for our CD's content and her son Liam is going to walk us through to how we're going to edit it. I think it's a good idea, recording a bit about ourselves then following through with poetry recitals so that examiners have a choice of audio or written form to look at...or listen to.
Since the assignment jacket is a DVD case, we're going to have to edit our poetry to a size of A5 or smaller to fit the booklets that go inside. Barbara's going to e-mail me the exact measurements so I can get to editing mine on Microsoft Word to that size and the template choices for each title page; then I will send them to her and she will send hers to me. Together, we'll revise each others poetry and meet soon afterwards. We were both thinking, too, of meeting up on a Friday -SOMEWHERE WHERE THERE'S COFFEE- to discuss, compare and put together ideas and contents.
Whilst working together with Barb today, another good idea sprouted. For each of the four themes (Life, Love, Lust and Leave) we decided we would relate to the four seasons; in both visual and mood format. So maybe some sort of suggestive flower border, or a simple petal image on each separating title page? We're not too sure, but we're in a good space at the moment.
This is proceeding perfectly and according to plan. Muhahaha. *rubs hands together in a suggestive, evil yet proud manner.*
