Deployment

What is it? Deployment is how you take the amazing designs you and your client created together and deliver it to the world for all to see. 

The parts of Deployment

Just like Development, Deployment methods depend on the type of platform used for the creative media project. But there are still certain parts of this process that are common to most creative projects and are important to keep in mind as you consider the options for communication laid out in this framework.

* These steps are optional, depending on the type of creative media project.

Modes of Communication

Communication across the framework has been broken into 3 primary types and 9 sub-types as follows:

Data Transmission

Discussion and Skill Training

Information Repositories

The intersection

Each part of the deployment process lends itself to specific modes of communication. The following table shows the optimal intersection for each part:
