Lean Media Project Planner

The Lean Media project planner, explained in Chapter 10 of the Lean Media book, is focused on product development. Anyone associated with the creation of a media project can use the project planner. Most will probably be creators or members of the production team.

The Lean Media project planner will be most useful to creators or teams who are formulating an idea, or are still at the early prototyping stages. It can serve as an important roadmap for product development and audience testing going forward. There may also be some opportunities to think about ways of incorporating audience feedback into later iterations of the media you are working on.

Unlike many books that furnish advice and then tell you to go out and be successful, Mr. Lamont devotes an entire chapter to his Lean Media project planner (downloadable from his website). If you are inexperienced with this type of tool, after furnishing one for you to use, the author then gives examples of how it works in different projects. This is a missed opportunity by most books. By seeing how the author filled in the planner, I have a better idea how to use it in my own projects. I believe the inclusion of this chapter alone is worth the price of ten books.
