4HER Project - RMITxLIFE Wiki

 Welcome to the !

Project introduction
4HER is a group project of RMIT Design Studies students working with client LIFE Center. The project runs from 15th July to 16th September 2021, under the course Design Management and Collaborative Studio (GRAP2746) and supervised by Mr. Patrice Crespy.

The team members working on the project are: Ha Xuan Uyen (project leader), Ngo Bao Quyen, Nguyen Tien Hoang, Nguyen Quang Thuc. Every part of the project was moved online, including the communication betwwen all sides, due to the lockdown situation of HCMC from June to September 2021.

Deliverables
The original required deliverables are: two training videos and two flipcharts, which all act as the training materials for the factory workers and Peer Health Educators particitpating in HER+project (refer to End-users for details)

Then, during the first pitch with client on 22/07/2021 (Refer to Pitch), the deliverables were slightly expanded to an additional digital version of the flipchart and an English version of the video.

Then again in the midway feedback session, the brief was revised again as the client had the change in mind. The client advised the team to focus on the Contraception methods products and drop the second half of the projects.

The team considered these changes carefully and finally decided to work on the 3 deliverables only (see Priority levels and Final products below), as considering the time and resources the team had. More details are discussed in Client's brief.

The details of execution of the deliverables is presented in Project execution.

Project priorities
The priority levels were adjusted several times during the process. But from Week 8 onwards, the priority levels are fixed as below.

The priorities set for the project are:


 * 01 training video with Vietnamese narration (P1) - Contraception Methods (renewed visual and storyline)
 * 01 printed flipchart (P1) - Contraception Methods (renewed visual and text layout)
 * 01 training video with Vietnamese narration and English subtitle (P2) - Contraception Methods (renewed visual and storyline)
 * 01 printed flipchart (P2) - Nutrition Care
 * 01 training video (P3) - Nutrition Care

Priority 0:


 * Video: 2D and 3D graphics, content on screen, background music - "Contraception methods" topic
 * Flipchart: Printed, colored version of the flipchart, with 3D and 2D graphics consistent to the videos - "Contraception methods" topic

All Priority 0 products (bare minimum requiremeents) was delivered and pitched to the client on in Week 8 and got feedback on 18th August 2021. After that, the second iteration of the project took place and spanned through P1 and P2.

Priority 1


 * Video: 2D and 3D graphics, exiciting storyline (less educational and more marketing-liked), Vietnamese narration voices - "Contraception methods" topic
 * Flipchart: Printed, colored version of the flipchart, with 2D graphics following LIFE references - "Contraception methods" topic

Priority 2


 * Video: All of P2, plus English subtitle that runs accordingly to the Vietnamese narration voice - "Contraception methods" topic
 * Flipchart: Printed, colored version of the flipchart, with 2D graphics following LIFE references - "Nutrition care" topic

Priority 3


 * Video: All of P2, plus a video for "Nutrition care" topic.
 * Flipchart: A separated digital version of the flipchart (a pdf that is mobile-friendly, easy to distributed with same content and visual but different layout) - both topics

Final products
And in the end, all products sucessfully delivered to the client contain everything in P1 and the English subtitle for the video (part of P2), aka, all products in the Contraception methods package.

If there were another week in the schedule, the team would have been able to pull off everything in P2, but sadly the team used all of the buffer week for fixing accordingly to client's feedback and therefore did not have enough time to do the digital version of the flipchart.

Project concept
This project aims at providing visual materials for training sessions for female workers at factories, who are less advantaged and have less access to wellbeing care. Among many topuics, the topics assigned for 4HER team are: Contraception methods and Nutrition care.

Target audiences
Refer to End users for details.

It was the first time every member of team designing a product that aims at this group of target audiences, so it was a bit challenging at first to research and decide on a design direction that suits them.

LIFE Center supported the team a great deal in providing image resources (to study the uniform of the worker and PhE), content (from LIFE Center's official training manuals and previous flipchart), references of the narration style,... to help the team understand the target audiences as much as possible.

Every materials used in the deliverables passed through the feedback of the Client to ensure that they are relevant and approriate to factory workers (for eg. the narration voice needs to be mature enough to imitate yet still sweet and cheerful)



Mission
The training topics used in LIFE Center's HER+project are designed to be practical and helpful in the lift of female factory workers. 4HER Team was lucky to be assigned the two topics Contraception methods and Nutrition care, as these two topics are very informative and taught the team a great deal during the execution process.

For Contraception methods topic, the team learnt many practical and scientifically proven facts about birth control that can be beneficial in the future.

For Nutrition care topic, the team understand more about the financial struggle of maintaining a nutritious meal for the whole family and learn many ways to incorporate some of the tips into their own family meals.

Sadly, the Nutrition care package was never finished. But the team learnt some great things while writing the script and brainstorming the storyline for the video
