WordCamp LA – Doctor Who and WordPress

Christopher Frazier — Fri, 12 Sep 2014 23:04:32 +0000

In a rather shocking turn of events, my talk on rolling out WordPress for the enterprise / large organizations was accepted by the organizers at WordCamp Los Angeles 2014. Other than running out of time (I’m used to speaking for 45 minutes, not 30), the session went well with the audience engaging with the content and the whole idea that it takes a Doctor (you know, Doctor Who!) to make a transition to WordPress happen in an organization.

Be the Doctor

Having been through the process of rolling out WordPress for large organizations (the University of La Verne had well over 7000 pages, dozens of sites, and almost a hundred editors), it’s become clear to me that more important than the technology and tools is having someone who can lead the change process and encourage people to embrace the excitement of discovery. I used Doctor Who as an example of what that person looks like, how they interact with strange and powerful tools (WordPress = The TARDIS) and how to bring stakeholders (Companions) into the process.

Grab the Notes

I’m working on writing up a series of articles that work through all of the parts of the session in detail, but if you’d like to see my notes today, you can check them out on Google Drive.

We were honored to yet again work with Culture Cube to develop an interactive / touch-screen game for the Motion Picture & Television Fund’s The Evening Before the Emmys event.

Played on both a 55″ touch-screen and two iPads, Jigsaw Jam required both quick reflexes and a cool head to beat. Want to try it out? Play Jigsaw Jam online.

We can officially say we’ve had our work up in Times Square!

Working Tykester has been an exciting process and it’s even more fun seeing the app being used by parents and caregivers for babies and toddlers. Want to give it a try? Visit them at http://tykester.com. Oh ya, we also made their site.

Our friends at Culture Cube brought us in to work on very cool interactive / touch-screen trivia game for The Hollywood Reporter’s booth at the Motion Picture Television Fund’s The Night Before the Oscars event in Hollywood.

The game was available to play on two custom Samsung tablets and two HUGE 55″ touch-screen monitors. Chris was able to be on-site for the installation and it was a blast to be able to see the whole project come together. Thanks to Kyle and Robby for the opportunity to help out with a very cool project.
