As producers you are the keepers of the schedule, but you also have "pet projects" of your own. (A reasoned guess on my behalf.) Will you tell us a little about these projects you're most excited about?asked by Murray PhD

TL;DRThe producers say they have pet projects but they're unglamorous: one is automating invoicing for external artists with a job numbering system, the other is adding modules to Jira.

Yeah, we do have our own pet projects...

They're not really exciting.

We're not like hollywood producers that might just want to cast their daughters or something in the movie! Darian what are yours?

Mine's REALLY exciting :-P. I'm coming up with a way of how to automate our invoicing for external artists! If you are a producer type this might sound a little more exciting, we do a lot of outsourcing or contract work, and I'm coming up with a job numbering system where every time we get an invoice or send one out, we have a data record of who the job went to, what cost centre it comes out of, what day it was etc. I've got a numbering system I've used before, which I think is applicable here, and I'm actually pretty excited about it. Huh.

I don't really have any pet projects here, my biggest/most exciting projects would be adding modules to Jira or modifying things in Jira.
