Client project for Brentwood Guesthouse in York. Legal constraints required taking original photos of attractions instead of using copyrighted online images, which was time consuming. Financial constraints were managing with provided college cameras. Project was managed by making pages in order and adding text and images. Time management could have been improved by taking photos earlier. Communicating with client was easy as they know each other personally. Requirements of detailing historic places, museums and restaurants were met by including attractions like York Minster and restaurants like Betty's. Lessons learned were to better plan by outlining descriptions in advance and managing time more effectively.

2. Constraints of the project
Legal contraints (copyright):
To avoid copytight problems, I had to go out and take all the pictures I
needed for the project. This was quite time consuming because I had to
walk around york pictures taking photos of attractions, like the minister
and cliffords tower, and popular food and drinks place like Bettys and the
Fleece inn. I’m not a professional photographer and im not very familiar
with all camera settings, so the pictures weren’t the best. I had to edit all
my pictures on photoshop because they all needed to be cropped and I
needed to correct the exposures, which was time consuming. The legal
contraints meant that I couldn’t use photos on the internet because they
are other work and they have the rights to them. If I were to used other
peoples work, I would have to pay for them.
ASA-
Financial constraints
We do have college cameras ,which I used for my project. If college didn’t
have camera i would have had to pay to hire a camera for the project.

3. Project Management
I think I did managed my project quite well. I made each of pages I needed when I started to make sure the
pages would fit together when they were printed. The pages of the welcome are A5 but I have to make them
on A4 so I could fold the page in two.
I decided to put most of text in and then put in the pictures so they would fit in well.
Time-
I tried to managed my time well to get each pages done however I feel like I could it better.
I feel like it would of been better to take the photos in the first week rather week because I will like it would of
make me more organized in the second week.

4. Managing communications
I know my client personally so it easy getting in
touch with them.
I have my Clients phone number so if I was unsure
about anything I could easily ring or text to ask.
Also, I have his email so I could email work so far
what I had done so he could respond.
Furthermore, the guesthouse isnt far away from
my house ,which is only a 5 min car drive or a bus
away.
Seen as the wasn’t any specific in regards to the
style of the leaflet, I asked what colours my client
would like and he responded with ’look at our
website’. I know it wasn’t specific information on
what to add but it did give me guidance that I need
to use brown and white. I had to use a bit of my
own judgement with using orange.

5. Meeting the requirements
of the brief
I felt like I have met the requirements of my brief.
My brief wasn’t very specific but definitely guided me to what I needed to include in welcome
leaflet.
Brentwood Guesthouse said to include ’details of historic places and museums and
Popular eating places’. I feel like I have listened because I included various attractions and food and
drink places. I featured York Minister, Clifford’s tower, York city walls and the shambles on the
attractions page of leaflet; each with a short paragraph with each. Each of places are parts of York's
history’s so it fit with the brief.
For example, when talking about the shambles I said that they used to used be slaughter houses.
In the other attractions page, I featured York Castle Museum, National railway museum, York
dungeons and Jorvik Viking center. So I have featured two museums because the brief said to feature
museums. I also featured popular eating places like the brief said to include ’popular eating places
like Betty’s and the golden fleece pub. On the food and drink page, I featured betty’s, Mannion and
co café, golden fleece and old white swan. I had looked on trip advisor before making my leaflet on
photo shop, to see which places are popular to feature them in it; each of these places had a high
rating out of 5 so they were featured.
My client said they used to give the customers a welcome letter but it ‘lacks information of what
York can offer visitors during their stay’. I feel that I helped visitors know what york can offer
because I have listed various eating places and attractions which they can visit during their time in
York.
In the specific requirements my clients said ’information to be kept to A4 size’. The leaflet is an A5
,however on Photoshop, they are size A4.

6. What I have learnt for future tasks
I have learnt from this tasks that planning
very important. I feel if If planned this
project better, I wouldn't be sat wondering
what to write for the descriptions.
I wished I would wrote out the exact words
of what I was going to put in the leaflet,
this would of made it much easier. I was
struggling on what words to put in the
leaflet from my research notes.
I think I need to be more aware of the time
scale of future tasks so I can use my time
wisely and effectively.
