• Business meeting and presentation
The head producer of a certain product is a businessman, who communicates with customers and direct the project realisation.

• Evaluating of the available materials (pictures, texts and sounds) and their formats, quality and price
At the beginning of the multimedia application development the customers give us their materials, on which the application is based. The head of production undertakes these materials, the production team evaluates their quality and applicability and in case of necessity suggests their exchange or creating new materials.

• Scenario of an application
Having to spoken to the customer or having seen the written concept, a proposal of the application concept is made. The customer corrects this concept including approximate estimate of price (top level). After the correction the customer gets a detailed scenario and more accurate estimate of price (top level). When the calculation is accepted the preparation and development of the application itself begins.
