Why is Storyboarding essential before developing an animation?

A storyboard works like the blueprint of the architect. During the storyboarding phase, you can identify most errors related to the narration, media, and other relevant details.
Storyboarding is crucial for four mains  reasons:

1) The storyboard allows checking if the concept work.  The storyboard determines the direction the animation is going to take.

2) While creating the storyboard, you can write and test impactful punch lines and dialogues.

3) Will the action work? Storyboards contain notes that give a whole idea of how the animation would flow in its entirety.

4) For complex animations, to avoid over budget, it is better to have an approved storyboard before entering the production phase of the project.

The year 2016 in review gives you a flavour of what the UN Environment Programme is doing in the pan-European region. This online publication invites you on a white journey through 12 initiatives UN Environment ran this year in Europe.

UNEP hopes that some of their latest success stories will trigger your desire to work together with them for a more sustainable Europe.

2016, said Jan Dusik,  Director, Europe Office, UN Environment “has been a busy year with many promising seeds planted in our region: a first inventory on industrial soil pollution undertaken in Serbia, new air quality monitoring stations opened in Bosnia, a first and firm pan-European commitment to the Global Goals, or the entering into force of the first Caspian Sea Protocol, to name but a few. All these successes prove the unprecedented commitment of Europeans to the environmental cause and hold great potential to be scaled-up and replicated in other cities and countries”.

The online publication is the result of a collaboration between the communication team of UNEP in Europe and the communication agency, Page in extremis.

This year, Madrid will welcome the 44th annual ASECAP Study and Information Days. On the occasion of this expected event, the logo and the visual identity of the event website will convey the vibrant colours of Spain.

The ASECAP days will explore the key role of the toll motorways in ensuring an integrated and sustainable mobility in Europe. The event will offer the opportunity to reflect on the EU integrated transport approach and, more specifically, on how to meet the challenges towards the EU 2020 Strategy. It will also look into the future of transport from the current international perspective.

The ASECAP Days will be the occasion for high-level panellists representing toll road infrastructure operators, as well as other modes of transport, and EU policymakers to discuss sustainability issues related to infrastructure financing, operation, maintenance, safety and the environment while considering how Intelligent Transport Systems contribute to the achievement of the goals set.

The two-day discussions will, therefore, be marked by technical and political sessions with essential information and Q & A about subjects falling under the responsibility of ASECAP’s different Permanent Committees (COPERs) affecting infrastructure financing, safe movement and smart mobility.

A session will be specifically devoted to delivering the final results of the REETS project (the unique pan-European project on regional tolling interoperability funded by the European Commission) led by ASECAP. Furthermore, the REETS and EETS stakeholders will debate on the future of a pan-European interoperable electronic toll system based on the REETS legacy.

Finally, a session on innovative marketing activities of motorway toll operators will be held during which national cases focusing on best practices and added value services for the customers will be brought into the spotlight.

You will find the two-day conference programme on the event website.

The ASECAP days website, the Reets and the EETS web platforms are all developed by the ASECAP communication’s team in close collaboration with the communication agency, Page in extremis.

Page in extremis turns brands into valuable assets and ensures the alignment with their strategic objectives.

Ciett actively contributes to the future of work debate!

As the voice of labour choice, Ciett is set up to promote common interests of the private employment services sector on an international level.

Ciett actively contributes to the future of work debate, not in the least by providing facts and figures about the employment and recruitment industry at international level in the Ciett Economic Report.

The 2016 edition of the most comprehensive fact book about the industry is one of continuity as well as change.

As in previous years, the report gives you an overview of the performance of various aspects of our industry.
The number of workers who find access to the labour market after intermediation by a recruitment and employment agency – 71.9 million people in 2014!
The turnover of the industry across the globe, which totaled 1450  billion.
And as always, there is much more data to be found in the report.

There are two new elements in this edition of the Ciett Economic Report.
The first is the different way that Ciett structures the data.
In 2015, Ciett decided to organize the data based on the four areas where the industry adds value: enabling work, adaptation, security, and prosperity.
So it is only logical that Ciett would use these four areas to structure the report that gives a comprehensive overview of the industry.

The second change is the medium Ciett chose to present this message.
The digital and online world have a profound impact on the way that the industry develops, and therefore Ciett decided also to bring the economic report online.

There is still a hard copy that offers you an insight into only a small selection of data but for the full overview of the report, you need to consult the online version.

This will make it easier for the reader, to browse the content liberally, and to share and repost the content more easily.

The online publication and the printed summary are the results of the collaboration between the communication team of Ciett and the communication agency, Page in extremis.

Based in Brussels, Page in extremis is a communication agency that makes brands conversational. The company helps organisations manage their communities, engage with their stakeholders and convey their messages through innovative digital tools.

Digital Customs, the opportunities of the Information Age

“Digital Customs is the theme for the year ahead”, claims Mr. Kunio Mikuriya, Secretary General of the World Customs Organization.

The World Customs Organization is the voice of 179 Customs administrations which operate on all continents and represent all stages of economic development. Today, WCO Members are responsible for processing more than 98% of all international trade.

The 79th edition of the WCO News entitled “Going Digital” sets an overview of how Customs and the private sector are embracing digital technologies.

“Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is everywhere in today’s Customs workplace”, said Mr. Mikuriya.

He emphasizes: “From the use of ICT in office automation to the use of the Internet to publish and disseminate information, to the use of automated clearance systems to make declarations, perform risk management, undertake validation and processing, and eventually to issue approvals, ICT has transformed the way that Customs and governments operate.”

To reaffirm the importance of ICT for Customs administrations and in the work programme of the WCO, Mr. Mikuriya chose the concept of ‘Digital Customs’ as the theme for the year ahead.

He specifies: “Digital Customs means using digital systems to collect and safeguard Customs duties, to control the flow of goods, people, conveyances and money, and to secure the cross-border trade from crime, including international terrorism which continues to rear its head across the globe.”

In close collaboration with the WCO communication team, the quarterly magazine “WCO news” is designed and produced by the communication agency, Page in extremis.

On February 2016, FIA Region I revealed consumer concerns related to the connected car collected from the My Car My Data public survey including 12,000 European people.

Although the expression of a high level of interest in connectivity, respondents issued a clear message: vehicle connectivity must respect conditions and address privacy concerns.

Across the 12 countries surveyed, 90% say that vehicle data belongs to the owner or driver of the vehicle.

An overwhelming 91% wanted the possibility to switch off connectivity.

A further 76% wanted to decide when and for how long consent to access car data should last.

In the case of a breakdown, an overwhelming majority felt that they should get to choose who repairs the car.

The results of the survey have been the purpose of a report developed by the FIA Region I and entitled  "What Europeans Think About Connected Cars".
