Production Briefs
1. Task 1
Define and summarise the following range of creative production briefs:
Contractual – A contractual brief is a type of brief or contractwhere a media company is employed
by the clientin order to complete a project within the brief which is set to specific guidelineswhich
the media company must follow.It will bevery important for the media company to followthese
guidelines and do exactly what the clientstates within the brief,if they fail to do so this can result
in a breach of contractand the company could facelegal actions.

Negotiated - This is where a clientwill advertisetheir brief and a production company will bring
together a proposal thatthey will pitch to the client,there could be multiplepitches to the client
from many different companies,so the clientwill then get the chanceto choosethe proposal that
they think best suits their brief and offer the job to that production company.

Formal – This this where a media company is given a brief by the clientwhich outlines the product
which they are wanting to be made. This brief is very open and only gives enough information to
be ableto produce the product, any issues or information thatthe media company would liketo go
over can be discussed duringthe negotiations with the client.Both the clientand the company
employed by them will formally agreeon the project and the brief but itcannot always belegally
binding.

Informal – An informal brief is notdocumented and is usually of the verbal kind.It is where the
clientand the company which they have employed simply discusstherequirements for the
product they will bemaking and ultimately agrees upon the project.

Commission – This brief is where a largemedia company will employ an other independent media
company to create and produce the product for them, and after the product has been made the
larger company may go on to be use the product for an external clientwho will pay the
independent media company for makingthe product and they could even get a cut of the royalties
too. The brief is notnegotiated between the company and the client,however is negotiated
between the two media companies.

Tender – This is where a clientwill advertisetheir brief and a production company will bring
together a proposal thatthey will pitch to the client,there could be multiplepitches to the client
from many different companies,so the clientwill then get the chanceto choosethe proposal that
they think best suits their brief and offer the job to that production company.

Co-operative – Within this type of brief there are usually two or more companies that arehired by
the clientto work to the brief they have written for the specific project they want to be completed.
After both companies have received the brief they can then proceed to work together to produce
the product. If there is a disagreement or conflictin ideas there can be a negotiated brief in order
to resolvethese issues.

Competition - This is where a clientcan put their brief out so it can be accessed by all of the
different production companies that areparticipating.Itcan sometimes been seen as a free
competition as each production company will complete the brief and the clientcan then judge
which company has the best project and as an award they have itpublished.

2. In addition, you must also provide a summary of professional self-development opportunities working to each
of the briefs would provide for you in the following categories:
Communication: I can develop my communication skills by talkingwith my team members and my
tutor, discussingwhatthe project requires,and givingdifferent ideas for our project.
Time Management: Time management can be developed easily by planninga scheduleof the project
and stickingto it, by havinga daily work log,havinga target for each day. How much work I woul d
need to do to meet a deadlineefficiently would be easier to do with a target to aimfor.
Technical Skills:Technical skillscan bedeveloped whilstworkingon a game or practiceproject,it can
also bedeveloped by doingand/or watching tutorials onlineand askingfor help too.
Career progression:If I was to do a co-operative brief, for example, I learn skillswhilstworkingwith
people who have a different skillsetto me, and it allows me to progress as I gain more understanding
in the work place. Itwould then be easier for me in the workplaceas I already havesome skillsof
communication and team work.
