Meeting 1 Recap

So we had our first post-show meeting yesterday. Here is what we are looking into.

#1. - meant for family/friends night (estimate of about 1000 visitors)
- the item will be a button on a thank you card/note

#2. - meant for industry night (estimate of at least 300 visitors)
- the item at this point is undecided, since we are relying on donations
- our first choice is: disposable camera that will have our designed package/thank you note
- our second choice is: reusable bags that are silkscreened with our design
- our third choice is: a postcard booklet/ series that relates to the theme of our show
- so basically, if we cannot get the first/second choice as donations or at a cheap price, then we will be doing a postcard series
- it was also mentioned that a postcard series that showcases all the students work might be something that we want to make and then sell at the show, but we would have to figure out the production cost since we are aiming to sell them for less than $10
- if we want, we can always do a combination for this but we have to wait and see what donations we can get

#3. - meant for sponsors that gave a large sum (estimated of less than 10 at the moment)
- our first choice is to have USB with a PDF (showing their contributions, their logo at the show/on the design invite etc), possibly a short video with a thank you note, and an accompanied printed version of the PDF (sort of like the sponsorship package)
- if we cannot get USBs then we can use CDs (possibly rewriteable ones)
