Lentara 4.2 – Social Media Analysis & Comparison

It has been well established thus far that Lentara is good at what they do, but struggle to promote themselves. Capitalising on social media is critical to modern awareness and communication, therefore I decided it would be resourceful to analyse how Lentara uses social media, what’s done well, and what can be improved.   Comparative Facebook Analysis: If image is difficult to…

Lentara 4.1 – Ideas Worth A Try

To kick off from where I left it last time, I’ll put forward a few of the genuine, plausible ideas that arose from discussion with Lentara staff. “for 124 years, UnitingCare has been a ‘quiet achiever’… “we’re good at what we do, but we don’t tell that story well” – Ann-Maree Colborne, Lentara CEO Part of our task is to…

Lentara 3.3 –  Visiting Broadmeadows HQ

On Wednesday, after being in contact with our Lentara liaison, for the first time in my life I boarded the Cragieburn line. A 10 minute walk from the station and I would find the offices of Lentara UnitingCare. As this was my first personal. tangible experience with the organisation, I was very aware of its atmosphere and environment. I considered…

Lentara 3.2 – Wicked Problems

  This term, Wicked Problems, has been thrown around a few times in our studio over the last couple weeks. But what exactly is it? “A wicked problem is a problem that is difficult or impossible to solve because of incomplete, contradictory, and changing requirements that are often difficult to recognise. The use of term “wicked” here has come to…

Lentara 3.1 – The role of Story

The story. It’s vital to our overarching goal: Communicating Lentara’s work in community. The studio’s discussion mostly aligned with the ShowerCaravan project, but the principles can be applied to many projects, including my team’s task of acquiring and promoting the Lentara Identity.  The communicable story, in our case the Identity, needs to be an amalgamation of information gathered from the stories…

Lentara 2.3 – Fancy New Words

Exposure to the Communication Design field was something I was certainly looking forward to in this semester’s Media studio. While it overlaps in many aspects with my Media degree, I have already been introduced to new ideas or concepts, and would like to document the new findings here. ‘Return Brief’ As per my understanding, a Return Brief is a statement…

Lentara 2.2 – Tactical Urbanism

I’m going to conduct a little self experiment in this post. Before today I had never come across the idea of Tactical Urbanism, and without any research yet (not even a google search), I’m confidently still in the dark on this one. This entry will be split into two parts; my interpretation/assumption of the concept, based solely off its title,…

Lentara 2.1 – Research Methods

After digesting the thoughts of academic writer, John Law, and taking advice from my tutorial, it’s time to think a little bit about the methods of research we’re going to use throughout the semester’s collaborative work with Lentara. “what happens when social science tries to describe things that are complex, diffuse and messy. The answer, I will argue, is that…

Lentara 1.3 – Five projects, Endless Possibilities (P.2)

In my previous entry, I discussed 2 of 5 Lentara proposed projects, one of which I will be contributing to over the next 3-4 months. As I am unsure which I will be assigned to, I had a quick think about the possibilities surrounding each section of Lentara. Here’s a few thoughts and ideas on the remaining 3. Lentara Identity…

Lentara 1.2 – Five projects, Endless Possibilities (P.1)

In my first blog entry I introduced Lentara and the many services it offers to assist struggling community members. But what can I, or we as a collective Media and Design student body do to assist Lentara? We’ve come to the conclusion that within groups, we’ll focus on various Lentara campaigns or projects, to improve or create awareness, attract more…
