  5. Briefs/Buckets • Splitting Iowa Now content into two groupings: • Feature Stories • Briefs • The creation of “Briefs” will be shared between VPSC staff and our campus communications colleagues.

  7. Briefs/Buckets (cont) • Why Briefs: • Not a lot of traffic for a significant amount of effort • Adding a taxonomy for departments that will allow data feeds for departmental web sites

  8. Feature Stories • Fewer but more complex and impactful stories • Feature stories become their own mini-publications • Single Content Type • Photo Galleries and Videos will be part of the Feature Story content type • Expanding for additional story elements such as Twitter Cards, Interactive Graphics, more robust callouts and pull quotes

  9. Sketches

  10. Next Steps • Very fast schedule • Design comps towards the end of July • Tech side: Already prototyping architecture changes and display frameworks

  11. Conclusion • Questions or concerns? • Feedback as we move forward: Email works, or just grab one of us for a quick conversation.
