I’ve only been copied on one possible design, sent by Marisol. Here it is.

1. Jacci has organized connecting a wonderful charity to receive a portion of the profits from one of the performances. Jacci, will you continue to pursue the items required to keep that part of the project in order? This is called “Moment by Moment” – Jacci, can you had info to this?

2. I have contacted the copy center on Los Positas and at Chabot to try and track down the printer for the poster. I have also sent an email to the director of Phantom of the Country Opera to find out who printed that poster. Does anyone know the name and contact information for the design student who worked on the poster?– Lois added: Pat Baker did the final design for the poster (likely everyone one in the class assigned this project also worked on their own version). She is in the current VCOM 159 class. An old email address I have for her is pattileelee@aol.com

3. We need someone to contact the Bankhead Theater to get information for the ad that will run through them.  — Scott has taken this but is unsure of being able to work on the “text” postcard

4. We need someone to contact Cindy Browne Rosefield to get information for establishing a web presence.  — Cindy is now Lois’s baby

5. We need someone to look into the additional costs for a leave behind item, especially if it will be a specialty item as discussed at our meeting with Wendy. She mentioned a bookmark, other options might be a coaster, button, sticker, or?

6. We need someone to type up the final copy for the poster and send it to the entire team so that we are all working from the same origin. Whoever does this must be absolutely certain that the information is 100% correct including the spelling. They will need to get the okay via email from Wendy as soon as possible so that we can all start flowing it into our poster designs.
