Automated publishing for Festival del film Locarno’s catalogue
Comprising 400 pages in four languages over two editions, with multiple writers and contributors and a four-week production cycle (including printing and delivery of the finished results into the hands of the Festivalieri), the Festival del film Locarno catalogue is normally a logistical and production nightmare.
Jannuzzi Smith ran a programme to streamline the content development and production workflows, specified extranet tools to assist content development and management, developed an XML-PDF engine to automatically preview page layouts and completely redesigned the format and presentation of the publication to revitalise look and feel while saving 50% of the paper used by previous editions.
