SPEAK OUT JULY 25, 2011  Storyboarding at Kern Recently, we had a client request us to storyboard on Microsoft Word. Whenever I hear this request, I cringe as I recollect my previous experiences of storyboard on Word. Word is a 'text-centered' tool. Word encourages me to write long descriptions of what will happen in each screen. Using drawing tools in Word is a pain. am a more visual person (or so I have been told).

IGNATIA WEBS | MONDAY, JULY 25, 2011  Help us #save new born babies lives by using #mobile devices for #ultrasound
"Why not save the lives of new borns by making use of mobile devices that can be used for ultra-sound?" with this simple idea my wonderful and inspiring colleagues Vincent De Brouwere and Fabienne Richard started a quest to get a new mobile project up and running. The project is now before a jury and it would be wonderful if as many people as possible could vote in favor of this proposal, as it will really save lives of new born babies and their mothers. If we get enough votes, the project will be funded by the Belinda and Bill Gates foundation. Thanks in advance! MORE >> -
