It's kind of like a
doctor's surgery. People are in and out every day. These guys all in here and
the guys over in the sales office, it's a musketeer thing. It's all for one and
one for all. And you have to create that kind of mentality.
HATTIE: (Voiceover)
Nick Smith is the newest partner.
NICKK SMITH: And
I'm the technical director. That's the official title. What it actually means
is that I tend to get involved at the beginning of a project to work with
clients. I'm actually seeing what they're going to do within the project
technically.
HATTIE: So tell me
what goes on in this room.
NICKK: This is the
studio. (Voiceover) The studio's comprised of three distinct teams, really--the
creative team, which is basically the people who come up with the ideas for the
visuals and the look and feel of applications that we put together. Then
there's the multimedia team, who take those visuals and make them into working
animations and HTML layouts. And then there's the technical team, and what they
do is really put the code behind the screens to actually make the application
work. So they put the code work behind it.
ROGER: Nickk, can
you give me a hand with this last... events? NICK: Yeah. Sure. What's up?
(Voiceover) Well, everyone is--it's completely a team effort, basically. The
person who controls the actual work through the studio--we have several
projects going on at the same time, so Roger looks after the work flow of the
studio and decides who should work on what. ROGER: I'm the production manager
in the studio, so my main job is to make sure that everything gets done in time
and to schedule.
