chicago kickstarter project jam #2

this project jam is the second in a series of four workshops on taking product ideas from concept to reality. the workshop—led by chicago designer and educator craighton berman of manual—will have a special focus on using kickstarter for launching designed objects, but is open to other creative projects as well.

this project jam will be most useful for people who already have creative projects that are fairly defined (and even prototyped) that are ready to take the next step forward towards launch. bring your idea and a prototype/mock-up and we’ll share the ideas quickly as a group for critique and feedback. then we’ll use the project canvas to think through all of the facets of launching this design, and get feedback from others on launch approaches. ideally, at the end of the evening you’ll walk away with a more robust vision and a plan for moving forward.

while you’re welcome to attend this jam if you’re not yet comitted to any specific project, we’ll give more time to those who have advanced concepts/prototypes.
